INSTALLATION

1. / Apply bearing grease (supplied with part) to sensor head shaft and O-ring.
CAUTION: / Ensure that sensor mounting surface on bearing is clean before sensor installation.
2. / Push wheel speed sensor (2) head into mounting hole in hub and bearing (3) and align mounting screw hole.
3. / Install NEW mounting screw (1). Tighten mounting screw to 6 N·m (55 in. lbs.).
4. / Attach wheel speed sensor routing bracket (2) to knuckle (1). Install and tighten screw (3) to 8 N·m (71 in. lbs.).
5. / Attach wheel speed sensor routing bracket (3) to mounting flange (2) on strut assembly. Install and tighten screw (1) to 10 N·m (89 in. lbs.).

Install wheel speed sensor grommet (2) into flex hose bracket (1) on frame rail.

6. / Clip wheel speed sensor connector and routing clip (3) to bracket (2) on frame rail.
7. / Connect vehicle wiring harness (1) to wheel speed sensor connector.
8. / Install brake shield on knuckle. Install and tighten three mounting screws to 8 N·m (71 in. lbs.).
9. / Install brake rotor as well as all components necessary to access it.
10. / Verify that wheel speed sensor cable is properly routed and not coming into contact with rotor or other moving parts.
