Hi,

Replacing a wheel speed sensor isn't a difficult job. On some vehicles, the sensor is used for the ABS system, stability control, speedometer, and even traction control.

As far as replacement, here is a link that explains in general how it is done. You can use this as a guide.

Here are the directions specific to your vehicle. The attached pics correlate with the directions.
_____________________________

The wheel speed sensor is located on the rear of the wheel spindle and is held in place with one bolt.

See pic 1 for location (front).

Remove the bolt and gently remove the sensor from the housing. Next, follow the wiring from the sensor to a connector.

Disconnect the old sensor.

Install is the reverse of removal.

I hope this helps.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care and God Bless.

Joe
