   • Carefully pull the sensor out of its mounting position.

4. Install the New Sensor

   • Apply a small amount of grease to the new sensor's O-ring to ensure a proper seal.
   • Insert the new wheel speed sensor into the mounting position and secure it with the retaining bolt (torque to manufacturer specifications, usually around 10-15 Nm).

5. Reconnect Electrical Connector

   • Plug the electrical connector back into the new wheel speed sensor.

6. Reinstall Wheel

   • Place the wheel back on and hand-tighten the lug nuts.
