Q: How to replace the front wheel speed sensor on a 4WD on Chevrolet Colorado?
A: Before you start replacing the front Wheel Speed Sensor on a four-wheel-drive vehicle you need to remove the front Wheel Bearing and hub assembly. Remember to locate the Wheel Speed Sensor harness between the widest section of the bolt holes at this part. Apply white colored paint at the wheel sensor connector position on the wheel assembly. Focus your force on the Wheel Hub when removing the Wheel Speed Sensor without touching its tone wheel. Put the Wheel Speed Sensor in waste and use a proper device to pull it away from the Wheel Hub/bearing housing. Before installing set the Wheel Speed Sensor harness directly on the centerline of Wheel Hub/bearing assembly at the space between bolt holes. Push the new Wheel Speed Sensor directly onto the hub/bearing assembly until it sits securely against the housing wall. Put back the front Wheel Bearing and hub assembly with the speed sensor harness placed in an upward direction. Complete the assembly by attaching the Wheel Speed Sensor harness bracket bolt and fitting it with a torque of 20 nm (14 lb ft).
Q: How to replace the rear wheel speed sensor on those with a GVW greater than or equal to 3900 KG (8600 Lb) on Chevrolet Tahoe?
A: Support the vehicle correctly before replacing the rear Wheel Speed Sensor on vehicles more than 8600 pounds gross vehicle weight. Detach the Wheel Speed Sensor electrical connection and secure the electricity connection before taking off the inboard frame rail clips. Extract the Wheel Speed Sensor bolt before you remove the Wheel Speed Sensor from the rear axle position. You must fit the new Wheel Speed Sensor onto the rear axle and tighten the Wheel Speed Sensor bolt 9 nm (80 lb in). Connect the Wheel Speed Sensor electrical connector back and push the electrical clip against the inboard frame rail at its secure position. Confirm system operation with a vehicle diagnostic system test at the end.
Q: How to replace the Wheel Speed Sensor on Chevrolet SSR?
A: Start replacement by lifting the vehicle and taking off the tire wheel assembly including brake rotor. Separate the wiring harness holders of the Wheel Speed Sensor and detach the electric connection. Gently pull out the sensor from the bore using your fingers to avoid breaking the sensitive sensor parts while removing the mounting screw. Keep the stainless steel shim in place because it forms a permanent part of the bearing assembly; a new complete replacement is needed when the entire unit shows damage for accurate sensor and abs operation. Handle the cleaning process near the bore area carefully to shield the lubricated bearing space from contaminants that hasten its service life. Put new speed sensor in place by applying fresh o-ring with bearing grease using a soft tool but do not use grease to lubricate the bore of the sensor. Loosely fasten the new speed sensor mounting screw to 17 nm then securely join the electrical connection while using the proper mounting clips from the new sensor. Secure the wheel sensor wiring to its frame and control arm positions then replace the brake rotor followed by the tire and wheel parts.
