DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor detects the wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the skid control ECU. These signals are used for the ABS control system. This speed sensor contains a sensor IC, which consists of 2 MREs (Magnetic Resistance Elements). The speed sensor rotor, which consists of 48 sets of N and S poles arranged in a circle, is integrated with the inner race of the hub bearing.
To detect the rotation direction, the output waves are used to determine the relationship of the pulses that are generated by the 2 MREs. Upon receiving this signal, the sensor IC outputs a forward or backward waveform to the ECU.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE
REPLACE FRONT SPEED SENSOR
Replace the front speed sensor and the front axle hub sub-assembly (front speed sensor rotor) Click here.
Tech Tips
The front speed sensor rotor is incorporated into the front axle hub sub-assembly.
If the front speed sensor rotor needs to be replaced, replace it together with the front axle hub sub-assembly with front speed sensor.
