ABS Wheel Speed Sensor
An ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) Wheel Speed Sensor detects the speed of each wheel and sends the information to the ABS control
ABS Wheel Speed Sensors are important because they allow the ABS system to prevent the wheels from locking up during braking, thereby reducing the risk of skidding or losing control of the vehicle.
ABS Wheel Speed Sensors are needed in vehicles equipped with ABS systems, which are designed to prevent wheel lockup during braking. All modern vehicles are equipped with ABS systems.
ABS Wheel Speed Sensors are located near the wheel hub or inside the hub assembly, depending on the vehicle.
Diagnosing and replacing an ABS Wheel Speed Sensor requires specialized knowledge and tools, so it’s best to have a qualified mechanic or technician perform the work.
The ABS Wheel Speed Sensor monitors the spinning wheel and sends the information to the ABS control module. The ABS Wheel Speed Sensor can also be used by other systems, such as traction and stability control.”
