DESCRIPTION
NOTE: Wheel speed sensor should be installed all
the way into the clamping bushings, the wheel
speed sensor will self adjust when the vehicle is
moved.
The ABS brake system uses 4 wheel speed sensors.
A sensor is mounted to each front hub/bearings in
the front. A rear sensor is mounted to each rear sup-
port plate.
OPERATION
The Wheel Speed Sensor consists of a magnet sur-
rounded by windings from a single strand of wire.
The sensor sends a small AC signal to the CAB. This
signal is generated by magnetic induction. The mag-netic induction is created when a toothed sensor ring
(exciter ring or tone wheel) passes the stationary
magnetic WSS.
When the ring gear is rotated, the exciter ring
passes the tip of the WSS. As the exciter ring tooth
approaches the tip of the WSS, the magnetic lines of
force expand, causing the magnetic field to cut across
the sensor's windings. This, in turn causes current to
flow through the WSS circuit (Fig. 1) in one direc-
tion. When the exciter ring tooth moves away from
the sensor tip, the magnetic lines of force collapse
cutting the winding in the opposite direction. This
causes the current to flow in the opposite direction.
Every time a tooth of the exciter ring passes the tip
of the WSS, an AC signal is generated. Each AC sig-
nal (positive to negative signal or sinewave) is inter-
preted by the CAB. It then compares the frequency of
the sinewave to a time value to calculate vehicle
speed. The CAB continues to monitor the frequency

The signal strength of any magnetic induction sen-
sor is directly affected by:
²Magnetic field strength; the stronger the mag-
netic field, the stronger the signal
²Number of windings in the sensor; more wind-
ings provide a stronger signal
²Exciter ring speed; the faster the exciter ring/
tone wheel rotates, the stronger the signal will be
²Distance between the exciter ring teeth and
WSS; the closer the WSS is to the exciter ring/tone
wheel, the stronger the signal will be.

or the clamping bushing was damaged.
(3) Install the wheel speed sensor all the way into
the front wheel hub the wheel speed sensor will self
adjust when the vehicle is moved (Fig. 2).
(4) Install the front wheels.
(5) Lower the vehicle.
REAR WHEEL SPEED SENSOR
REMOVAL
(1) Raise and support the vehicle.
(2) Remove the rear wheels.
(3) Pull the wheel speed sensor out of the mount-
ing hole in the axle supporting tube (Fig. 3).
(4)Only do this step if sensor replacement is
necessary.Cut through the wheel speed sensor
cable at an easily accessible point (Fig. 3).

The Steering Angle Sensor is used to measure rate/
speed and direction of the steering wheel. This sen-
sor has 4 wires 12V, ground and 2 CAN Bus circuits.
This sensor is wired directly to the CAN Bus. This
sensor has to be programmed using the DRB IIIt
(Fig. 5).
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect the battery.
(2) Remove the airbag (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
RESTRAINTS/AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE -

REMOVAL).
(4) Remove the front cover (Fig. 6).
(5) Remove the upper and lower steering column
covers (Fig. 6).
(6) Remove the clockspring (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/RESTRAINTS/CLOCKSPRING - REMOVAL)
(Fig. 6).
(7) Disconnect the electrical connector from the
steering angle sensor (Fig. 6).
(8) Remove the steering angle sensor (Fig. 6).
INSTALLATION
NOTE: The installation position of the steering
angle sensor must have the plug connection at the
bottom (Fig. 6).
(1) Install the steering angle sensor to the column
(Fig. 6).(2) Reconnect the electrical connector to the steer-
ing angle sensor (Fig. 6).
(3) Install the clockspring (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/RESTRAINTS/CLOCKSPRING - INSTALLA-
TION) (Fig. 6).
(4) Install the upper and lower steering column
covers (Fig. 6).
(5) Install the front cover (Fig. 6).
(6) Install the steering wheel (Refer to 19 -

scan tool.
LATERAL ACCELERATION
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The Yaw Rate and Lateral Acceleration Sensor is
housed into one unit (Fig. 7)(each individual sen-
sor can not be replaced separately the whole
housing unit must be replaced when servicing).
The sensor is used to measure side to side (Lateral)
motion and vehicle rotational sensing (how fast the
vehicle is turning). This is a 6±wire sensor with all
six wires connected to the ESP/ABS module.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect the battery.
(2) Move the drivers seat forward and upwards.
