connector.
- 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. The clip may come out
with the wheel speed sensor or stay in the bore. If the sensor retaining
clip is still functioning correctly, save it for reinstallation. If
the sensor retaining clip 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. 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 to the brake line with a wire tie in the
location noted during removal.
- Connect the electrical connector.
