FAQs
What does an ABS sensor do?
An ABS sensor monitors the rotational speed of each wheel. This data is sent to the vehicle's ABS control unit, which uses it to prevent wheel lock-up during hard braking, allowing the driver to maintain steering control.
How do I know if my rear ABS sensor needs replacing?
Common signs include the ABS warning light illuminating on your dashboard, the ABS system engaging unexpectedly, or a loss of traction control. A diagnostic scan can often pinpoint a faulty ABS sensor.
What is the 'Number of Poles' for this sensor?
The '2-pin connector' indicates the number of poles, meaning it has two electrical contacts for signal transmission and ground.
What does 'Hall Sensor' technology mean?
Hall sensor technology uses the Hall effect to detect changes in magnetic field strength as the wheel rotates, providing a precise digital signal of the wheel's speed.
Can I install this sensor myself?
Installation requires basic mechanical knowledge and tools. If you are not comfortable working on your vehicle's braking system, it is recommended to have a qualified mechanic perform the installation.
What are the dimensions of the sensor?
The CI ABS Sensor Rear XABS983 has an overall length of 845 mm, a fitting depth of 10 mm, and a cable length of 750 mm.
What is the Part Number?
The part number for this CI ABS sensor is XABS983.
Troubleshooting
ABS warning light remains illuminated after installation
Re-verify the sensor is correctly installed and the connector is securely attached. Ensure the correct part number was used for your vehicle model. Check the wiring harness for any damage. Professional diagnosis may be required to check for other ABS system faults.
Intermittent ABS or traction control warnings
This could indicate a loose connection or a partially faulty sensor. Ensure the connector is clean and fully seated. Inspect the sensor and wiring for any physical damage. A thorough diagnostic scan might be needed.
