FAQs

Is this sensor compatible with both front and rear axles?

No, this part is specifically engineered for the rear left axle placement.

What is the length of the included cable?

The sensor features a 727 mm cable to accommodate the distance between the wheel hub and the connector port.

Do I need to program the sensor to the vehicle?

Generally, ABS sensors are 'plug and play,' but you must clear existing fault codes from the vehicle's ECU for the system to recognize the new part.

Is Febi an original equipment manufacturer?

Febi is part of the bilstein group and produces parts that meet or exceed OE quality, making them an excellent alternative to dealership-only parts.

What should I do if the sensor does not fit?

Double-check your vehicle's VIN or OE part number compatibility against the 171432 specification before attempting further installation.

Troubleshooting

ABS light remains illuminated after installation

Use an OBD-II diagnostic tool to clear old error codes from the vehicle's computer after the new sensor is installed.

Erratic ABS engagement during normal braking

Verify that the sensor is fully seated in its mounting point and that the sensor tip is clean and free of metal shavings or debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper installation is vital for the longevity of the sensor. Before starting, ensure the vehicle is safely lifted on jack stands.

  1. Locate the rear left wheel speed sensor connector.
  2. Disconnect the old sensor and carefully remove it from its housing.
  3. Clean the mounting area to remove debris or corrosion before seating the new Febi 171432 sensor.
  4. Route the 727 mm cable through the original retaining clips to prevent chafing or damage during suspension movement.
