INSTALLATION

CAUTION: Proper installation of wheel speed sensor cables is critical to continued system operation. Be sure that cables are installed in retainers. Failure to install cables in retainers as shown in this information may result in contact with moving parts and/or over extension of cables, resulting in an open circuit.

2. Install the speed sensor cable assembly grommet into the front inner fender. Install speed sensor cable grommet and retainer bracket on the inner fender of the vehicle and install and securely tighten attaching bolt.

CAUTION: When installing the wheel speed sensor cable routing bracket on the strut, the speed sensor cable must be looped upward as shown. If speed sensor cable is not routed in this direction it may rub, damaging the speed sensor cable.

3. Install the speed sensor cable routing bracket on the steering knuckle. Install and tighten routing bracket mounting bolt to a torque of 12 Nm (105 inch lbs.)
4. Apply a small amount of High Temperature Multipurpose grease to the sensor head before installation. Install speed sensor head on steering knuckle. Install the speed sensor head attaching screw and tighten to a torque of 7 Nm (60 inch lbs.).
