NOTE:
Rear wheel speed sensor-to-rotor gap is nonadjustable.
- Raise and support vehicle. Remove tire and wheel assembly. Inspect sensor pole piece for damage. If damaged, replace as necessary. If sensor pole piece is okay, check wheel speed sensor-to-rotor gap. Using a feeler gauge, check clearance between speed sensor pole and rotor tooth surface.
- Clearance should be .019-.068" (.48-1.73 mm). If clearance is not within specification, loosen sensor mounting bolt. Adjust sensor position until clearance is within specification. Tighten sensor mounting bolt. Install tire and wheel assembly. Lower vehicle.
