Its radial version and HDSCS female - B electrical connection provide a secure and accurate signal transmission. The sensor's dimensions are 57 x 20 x 1700 mm, and it is suitable for operation within a temperature range of -30°C to +90°C.

Key Features & Benefits

This sensor basically reads the speed of a wheel or component – things like the driveshaft or even individual wheels. It doesn’t use physical contact, that’s why it's ‘inductive’ – it senses a changing magnetic field created as a toothed ring, or reluctor ring, passes by. It sends that information as an electrical signal, a pulse basically, to your car’s computer. It's measuring how fast things are spinning. It's a critical part of several systems. The biggest one is ABS – anti – lock braking. It tells the ABS system how quickly each wheel is turning so it knows when one is about to lock up during braking. It also plays a big role in traction control and stability control, those systems all rely on accurate wheel speed data. Sometimes it's used for your speedometer, though newer cars usually get speed data from other sources too. It's often used in automatics to help determine when to shift gears, too.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Without a functioning sensor, those safety systems just won't work correctly, or at all. You’ll notice if one fails because your ABS light will almost certainly come on. You might feel pulsing in the brake pedal even when you don’t need it, or you might find your traction control isn’t engaging when it should. Think of it as a vital piece of information the computer needs to keep you safe. If it’s giving bad data, the computer makes bad decisions. You can find these HDSC plug sensors on Fixparts Online, and honestly, they’re pretty straightforward to replace in most vehicles, but it's always best to get it checked if you're not comfortable doing it yourself. They are really the eyes of the ABS system, acting like a shield against wheel lockup.
