Removal And Installation: Notes

CAUTION:

Because the vehicle speed detection encoder is magnetized, deposition of metal objects are prone to occur. Pay attention that no foreign objects are found on the vehicle speed detection encoder. At the same time, do not fail to check that no abnormality exists when assembling. In addition, always keep magnetic substances away from the magnetic encoder.
When removing and installing the front wheel hub assembly, make sure that the magnetic encoder for wheel speed detection (integrated with the inner oil seal) does not contact with surrounding parts to avoid damage.
When removing and installing the front wheel speed sensor, make sure that the sensor head at the end does not contact with surrounding parts to avoid damage.
