ABS Wheel Sensor Replacement

Wheel speed sensor monitors wheel speed and feeds this information into the ABS system (Anti-lock Braking System). These sensors are critical for the proper functioning of your vehicle’s braking system, helping to prevent wheel lockup during emergency braking situations. Based on the information from the four wheels, the system ensures correct braking performance.This intelligent monitoring helps detect discrepancies in wheel speed that could indicate skidding or loss of traction.Typically each wheel will have one sensor. In most modern vehicles, these sensors are integrated into the wheel bearing assemblies. If any of the sensors malfunction, you will likely see not just ABS warning light but also the check engine light – as a matter of fact, ABW sensor failure was, in 2023, one of the top 10 causes of the check engine light being turned on by the onboard computers.

Naturally, when you see ABS light or the check engine light, it’s time to visit your friendly local mechanic to have your vehicle diagnosed. Ignoring these warning lights can lead to increased stopping distances and jeopardize your safety on the road.
