ABS light flashing code 42-need help

[1995LOUDSHO]

So couple days ago airbag light starts flashing. So then I noticed the sequence and searched on here to find its code 42.
Center radiator primary crash sensor.

Suggestions on where this is and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance

Now, I don't really know much about these systems, but......why would the ABS light flash a crash sensor code? I thought that was the job of the airbag light. So is it a code 42 on the Anti-lock brake or Airbag system?

Lol yeah I meant airbag light

Now that that's cleared up, haha, the reason for the fault could either be bad wiring, bad connections, or a bad crash sensor. The sensor itself is located on top of the radiator, below the little plastic information panel thing. Anymore information would have to come from the more knowledgeable SHO people.

Ok, I will have to inspect everything and take it from there. Easy enought to get to at least

either the connector is bad or the sensor is bad. if you need a sensor, see my parts for sale thread.

Ok and I'm guessing the sensor. Is it large? Looking into it now.

Also if helps when you turn car off, with key on it makes a beeping sound. Beeps 5 times, stops and repeats over and over until the car is turned off

More often that not it the wire has gone bad. There is a bad area for a connection to come apart right around the air box.

Ok I will check into that.

Does the beeping help indicate any of the issue? Beeps 5 times and repeats this with just the key on but not while running

So I'm pretty ire it's the connection somewhere
As it went off for awhile and comes and goes now while driving

Fastest way to repair it is to run new wires from the front sensor to the computer.
