Airtex ABS Wheel Speed Sensor Replacement

The Airtex ABS wheel speed sensor (also called an ABS sensor, wheel speed sensor or ABS brake sensor) is a direct-replacement part for the sensor that monitors wheel rotation for your anti-lock braking system. The ABS control module uses the signal to detect wheel slip and modulate brake pressure. This helps prevent wheel lock-up during hard braking. The same data can also support traction control and stability control functions.

Key Features:

• Designed as a direct replacement for the original ABS wheel speed sensor, with OE-style mounting and connector design
• Heavy-duty wire insulation and harness sheathing help protect against impact and corrosion damage
• Weather-pack style connectors help keep out dirt, moisture, chemicals and other contaminants
• Engineered to address environmental damage, a leading cause of ABS sensor failure
• Mounting hardware, grease (where appropriate) and installation instructions are included with Airtex ABS sensors, per the manufacturer

A failing wheel speed sensor can trigger the ABS warning light, cause erratic speedometer readings, or stop the ABS from working correctly. Replacing it restores accurate wheel speed signals to the ABS module. Airtex is a long-established name in vehicle electronics and fuel and engine management components.
