Key Features & Benefits

This little guy connects into the wheel speed sensor. Basically, it’s a connector that lets the sensor send information about how fast each wheel is spinning back to the vehicle’s computer. It handles both the power and the signal. It's a pretty simple part, but crucial. It’s part of your anti – lock braking system, obviously. The wheel speed sensors tell the computer if a wheel is locking up during braking. The computer then adjusts the braking pressure to that wheel to keep it from skidding. This plug makes sure that whole conversation happens reliably. It’s tucked away at each wheel, so it gets exposed to road salt, water, and just general grime.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

If this plug corrodes or gets damaged, it interrupts the signal from that wheel speed sensor. That means the computer doesn't get accurate info, and your ABS system might not work right. You'll likely see an ABS warning light on your dash – that's usually the first sign. Depending on how bad it is, you might notice the ABS activating unnecessarily, or even worse, it might not activate at all when you need it. It acts like a shield for those delicate sensor wires. You’ll notice if one goes bad because the light will come on and your braking might feel different. We carry a lot of these at Fixparts Online, and honestly, replacing them is often a lot simpler and cheaper than replacing the whole sensor if you're having ABS issues.
