Replacing a front wheel sensor on a 2009 F250<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The ABS light came on after my trip to Royal Blue. I did not have any clue as to why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I bought a Bluetooth OBDII dongle and got the free FordSys app<\/a>. Torque would not give me the ABS codes. The FordSys app did. There was a warning that the app might not work with the cheap dongle but this one worked fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The code was for the left front wheel sensor. A quick visual inspection showed the wire to the sensor was broken. I think a squirrel ate it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I ordered a sensor from Amazon. AUTEX 1pc ABS Wheel Speed Sensor Front Left\/Right <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I jacked up the truck and removed the wheel. Then I pulled the caliper and rotor. WIth the rotor off the sensor is easily visible right on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I removed the allen bolt that holds it in place. I bent back the tab in the backing plate to get more access. I removed the three small bolts that hold the wire down the removed the two clips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I then threaded in the new sensor. I benteh tab back down and tightened all the bolts. I clipped the two clips in place. I then pulled the old wire form the harness connector and installed the new wire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I put the rotor and caliper back in place. I balanced the wheel and then put it back on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ABS light was off when I restarted the truck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
