Speed sensor replacement

Speed sensor replacement

The speed sensor measures the speed of the car. It is usually located at the gear box. It transfers the relevant data to the computer, based on which it decides on how the anti-slip and power assisted systems are to operate.

Tips

  • The speed sensor should always be replaced with a new one
  • Wrong indications provided by the sensor may affect the operation of the driving assistance systems, e.g. the cruise control

Scope of services

  • Removing the connection, the bolt holding the sensor and the sensor itself
  • Cleaning the surface on which a new sensor is to be fitted
  • Fitting a new sensor in by means of the bolt
  • Connecting the sensor to the electrical system
