Caution: Ensure that the vehicle is properly supported and squarely positioned. To help avoid personal injury when a vehicle is on a hoist, provide additional support for the vehicle on the opposite end from which the components are being removed.
Notice: The outer drive axle joint has a speed sensor ring. Be careful not to damage this ring when performing service operations near knuckle and drive axle. Never pry against the speed sensor ring. Even minor scratching of speed sensor ring may result in a loss of ABS operation.
Notice: Be careful not to enlarge the locating hole in knuckle when drilling out the pin. Incorrect sensor location could occur and result in a loss of ABS operation.
Important: The front wheel speed sensor has a locating pin which may become stuck in the knuckle due to corrosion. The pin may separate from the sensor during sensor removal and remain in the knuckle. If this happens, and the pin cannot be pulled out, it must be drilled out using an 8 mm drill bit.
Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in the Preface section.
Important: Check to be sure that the sensor is fully seated against the knuckle. It may be necessary to clean corrosion or another obstruction from the locating pin hole.
Tighten
Tighten the wheel speed sensor fastener to 10 N·m (89 lb in).
