CAUTION: Proper installation of wheel speed sen-
sor cables is critical to continued system operation.
Be sure that cables are installed in retainers. Fail-
ure to install cables in retainers as indicated may
result in contact with moving parts or over-exten-
sion of cables, resulting in an open circuit.
(1) Install wheel speed sensor head in axle flange.
CAUTION: Prior to installing the speed sensor head
attaching bolt, the plastic anti-rotation pin must be
fully seated into the bearing flange.
(2) Install wheel speed sensor head attaching bolt.
Tighten bolt to a torque 10 N·m (90 in. lbs.).
(3) Check the air gap between the face of the
wheel speed sensor and the top surface of the tone
wheel. (Refer to 5 - BRAKES - SPECIFICATIONS)
CAUTION: When installing wheel speed sensor
cable in the routing clips on rear brake flex hose,
be sure not to damage the routing clips. Routing
clips are molded onto the hose and will require
replacement of the brake hose if damaged.
