Front

REMOVAL
1. Disconnect front ABS sensor connector located in engine compartment.





2. Remove bolts which secure sensor harness to strut.





3. Remove bolts which secure sensor harness to body.





4. Remove bolts which secure front ABS sensor to housing, and remove front ABS sensor.

CAUTION:
- Be careful not to damage pole piece located at tip of the sensor and teeth faces during removal.
- Do not pull sensor harness during removal.

5. Remove front disc brake caliper and disc rotor from housing after removing front tire.
6. Remove front drive shaft and housing and hub assembly.

INSTALLATION
1. Temporarily install front ABS sensor on housing.





CAUTION: Be careful not to strike ABS sensor's pole piece and tone wheel's teeth against adjacent metal parts during installation.

2. Install front drive shaft to hub spline.





3. Install front ABS sensor on strut and wheel apron bracket.
Tightening torque:
32 ± 10 Nm (3.3 ± 1.0 kg-m, 24 ± 7 ft. lbs.)





4. Install ABS sensor on housing.
1. Measure the distance "A" between ABS sensor surface and sensor pole face.
2. Measure the distance "B" between surface where the front axle housing meets the ABS sensor, and the tone wheel.





NOTE: Measure so that the gauge touches the tone wheel teeth top.

3. Find the gap between the ABS sensor pole face and the surface of the tone wheel teeth by putting the measured valves in the formula below and calculating.

NOTE: After standard clearance is obtained over the entire perimeter, tighten ABS sensor on housing to specified torque.

ABS sensor clearance = B - A
ABS sensor standard clearance:
0.3 - 0.8 mm (0.012 - 0.031 inch)
Tightening torque:
32 ± 10 Nm (3.3 ± 1.0 kg-m, 24 ± 7 ft. lbs.)

CAUTION: Check the marks on the harness to make sure that no distortion exists. (RH: light blue, LH: brown)

NOTE: If the clearance is outside specifications, readjust.
