  3. Measure the distance between the front ABS wheel-speed sensor installation surface and the tip of ABS wheel-speed sensor. This is dimension B.
  4. Calculate the clearance between the front ABS wheel-speed sensor and the ABS sensor rotor using the following formula:

    Clearance (mm {in}) = A - B

  5. Verify that the clearance between the ABS sensor rotor and the front ABS wheel-speed sensor is as indicated below.
    • If there is any malfunction, replace it.
