wheels speed sensor

Hello friends! In this article, we will discuss a critical sensor that keeps cars safe and functioning correctly—the sensor! It sounds like a big word but fear not! We will simplify it and explain in simplest way possible.

Let’s first discuss what a wheels speed sensor is. This unique component helps a car secure. Each vehicles speed sensor is used to detect the speed of each wheels and prevent it slips and skids. This is very important when the weather is not favourable, for example when it is snowing or raining outside. A functioning wheels speed sensor can become crucial when roads are slippery! It also assists with the car’s anti-lock braking system, commonly referred to as ABS. The ABS helps to modulate braking during emergency stops. And this is exactly the reason why we need to pay attention to them, if a car does not have a good wheels speed sensor it can be very dangerous to drive a car.

How a Wheels Speed Sensor Works

Now, let’s discuss how the wheel speed sensor, itself, works. It may seem complicated, but it really is very simple! Typically the sensor is mounted near the wheels of the vehicle. It is responsible for transmitting critical information to the vehicle’s main computer regarding the rate at which the wheels are spinning. This is critical for the car's computer to prevent instability during the car's driving duty. The computer can then adjust the slip in the system based on what it believes the wheels are doing—spinning too fast, too slow, etc.

Like any other automotive component, orings and seals wears out or get damaged over time. This is why watching them is so important! Here are some common issues that can occur with wheels speed sensors:
