Removal Procedure
- Disconnect the electrical
connector (1).
- Remove the nylon straps retaining the sensor wire to the brake
line. Note the location of the straps.
- Remove the wheel speed sensor from the bore.
- Remove the speed sensor retaining clip (3). The clip may come
out with the wheel speed sensor or stay in the bore. If the sensor retaining
clip (3) is still functioning correctly, save it for reinstallation. If the
sensor retaining clip (3) is not functioning correctly, replace the sensor
retaining clip.
Installation Procedure
Important: You may have to use the wire retainers from the old wheel speed sensor
wire on the new sensor. Do not damage the new wire when installing the retainers.
Important: When the wheel speed sensor is fully installed in the block bore, it
contacts the tone ring which is attached to the wheel hub. Normal bearing
play between the sensor tip and tone ring in the wheel hub will move the
sensor tip away from the tone ring. This automatically establishes the
proper air gap.
- Install the wheel speed
sensor retaining clip (3) completely into the bore. The clip should stop at
the retaining tabs. Insert the wheel speed sensor into the clip. The wheel
speed sensor should contact the tone ring.
- Secure the sensor wire (2) to the brake line (4) with a wire tie
(1) in the location noted during removal.
- Connect the electrical connector (5).
