Replacement

Front wheel speed sensor cap (2WD)

1.Remove the front hub assembly.(Refer to Driveshaft and Axle - "Front Hub Assembly")

2.Check the installation direction of the sensor cap (A) connector (B).

If the mounting direction of the sensor cap is different from the initial installation, the connector may not be able to be connected at the time of installation, so be sure to record the direction of the connection before removal.

3.Remove the wheel sensor cap by using the SST.

(1)Install the SST (0K583 - R0400) on the wheel sensor cap and then rotate the bolts (A) to fix.

• After removing the sensor cap, check for damage to the encoder, and replace the hub bearing if the deformation is confirmed.

• If the encoder is deformed, the warning lamp may illuminates due to a sensor error.

5.Pre- install the sensor cap in the same direction as the connector direction of the sensor cap that was visually checked before disconnecting.
