VEMO V24-72-0031 Brake

VEMO V24-72-0031 ABS Wheel Speed Sensor

The VEMO V24-72-0031 is a high‑performance ABS wheel speed sensor designed to provide accurate rotational data for anti‑lock braking systems. It is engineered with precision inductive technology, ensuring reliable operation across a wide range of temperatures and driving conditions.

Key Functionalities

• Accurate Wheel Speed Measurement: Captures real‑time wheel revolutions to feed the vehicle’s ABS control unit.
• Passive Inductive Design: Eliminates the need for external power, reducing wiring complexity and enhancing durability.
• High Signal Integrity: Maintains signal quality even under vibration or electromagnetic interference.
• Compact Form Factor: Fits seamlessly into existing sensor mounts without requiring chassis modifications.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility and Vehicle Applications

The VEMO V24-72-0031 is engineered to replace or upgrade the original ABS wheel speed sensor on a variety of vehicles. Commonly referenced models include:

• Fiat Punto (3/5‑door)
• Lancia Y
• Other European passenger cars that utilize the V24-72-0031 as a rear axle wheel speed sensor.

Its universal mounting design allows for straightforward installation on both left and right rear wheels, provided the vehicle’s ABS system supports this sensor type.

Installation Guidelines

1. Safety First: Ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported before removing the wheel.
2. Remove Existing Sensor: Disconnect the wiring harness, unscrew the mounting bolts, and carefully detach the old sensor.
3. Align New Sensor: Position the V24-72-0031 so that its contact pins align with the vehicle’s connector. Verify correct orientation (right‑hand side for rear axle).
4. Tighten Mounting Bolts: Secure the sensor firmly, ensuring no play or misalignment.
5. Reconnect Wiring Harness: Attach the harness to the sensor’s pins, double‑check polarity and secure connections.
6. Test Functionality: After reassembly, start the vehicle and verify that the ABS indicator lights up correctly. Perform a low‑speed brake test to confirm sensor responsiveness.

Performance Highlights

• Consistent signal output across temperature extremes.
• Low power consumption due to passive inductive operation.
• Robust construction resists corrosion and mechanical shock.
• Designed for long‑term reliability in high‑RPM environments.

Maintenance Tips

Although the V24-72-0031 is built to last, routine checks can extend its lifespan:

• Inspect wiring harnesses for fraying or damage during periodic maintenance.
• Clean sensor contacts with a non‑abrasive brush if dirt accumulates.
• Verify that the mounting bolts remain tight after driving cycles.

Conclusion

The VEMO V24-72-0031 ABS wheel speed sensor delivers reliable, high‑precision data essential for effective anti‑lock braking. Its passive inductive design, compact size, and proven compatibility with popular European models make it an ideal choice for technicians seeking a durable and straightforward replacement or upgrade.
