Metzger 900163 Sensor Ring – ABS

The Metzger 900163 Sensor Ring is a precision-engineered component designed to enhance the performance and reliability of an automobile’s anti‑locking braking system (ABS). Crafted from high‑strength ABS plastic, this sensor ring provides durable protection for the wheel speed sensor while maintaining optimal signal integrity.

Key Features

• High‑Quality ABS Construction: The ring is molded from premium ABS material, offering excellent resistance to impact, heat, and chemical exposure. This ensures long‑term durability even under harsh driving conditions.
• Exact Fitment: Engineered for a wide range of front and rear wheel assemblies, the sensor ring aligns perfectly with the wheel speed sensor housing, guaranteeing reliable data transmission.
• Enhanced Signal Clarity: By providing a smooth, uniform surface around the sensor, the ring minimizes electromagnetic interference and preserves signal fidelity.
• Corrosion Resistance: The ABS material resists rust and corrosion, protecting the sensor from moisture and road salts that can degrade performance over time.
• Easy Installation: Designed for quick replacement, the ring fits without the need for specialized tools or modifications to existing components.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

1. Preparation: Park the vehicle on a level surface, engage the parking brake, and disconnect the battery to ensure safety during maintenance.
2. Remove Old Ring: Locate the wheel speed sensor housing. Using a suitable socket or wrench, carefully unscrew the existing sensor ring. Note that the old ring may be glued or secured with clips; gently pry it free if necessary.
3. Clean the Area: Wipe the sensor housing and surrounding area with a clean cloth to remove dust, grease, or debris that could affect fitment.
4. Install New Ring: Slide the Metzger 900163 Sensor Ring onto the sensor housing. Ensure it sits flush against the sensor without gaps. If the ring has a locking mechanism, secure it according to manufacturer instructions.
5. Reassemble: Tighten any fasteners to the specified torque settings. Reconnect the battery and perform a quick test drive to confirm that the ABS system is functioning correctly.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the sensor ring periodically for cracks or signs of wear, especially after exposure to road salts or extreme temperatures.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners on the ring’s surface; a mild soap solution and soft brush suffice.
• If the ABS warning light illuminates, check the sensor ring for proper installation before diagnosing other components.
