• Compact Design with Integrated Cable: Simplifies installation by reducing the need for additional wiring harnesses.
• Durable Housing: Resistant to oil, coolant, and brake fluid contamination.
• OEM Compatibility: Matches original specifications for a seamless fit in supported models.

Supported Vehicle Models

The sensor is engineered for use on the rear wheels of several Land Rover and Range Rover platforms. Commonly matched vehicles include:

• Land Rover Discovery III & IV (2005‑2016)
• Land Rover LR3 & LR4 (2005‑2016)
• Range Rover Sport (various years, typically 2008‑2016)
• Range Rover L319/L320 (model years 2013‑2018)

For a definitive fitment check, consult the vehicle’s service manual or an authorized parts database.

Installation Overview

1. Remove the Old Sensor: Disconnect the battery, remove the wheel and brake assembly, then detach the existing sensor from its mounting bracket.
2. Prepare the New Sensor: Verify that the integrated cable is intact and free of kinks. Align the sensor’s magnetic gap with the wheel hub’s toothed rim.
3. Mount the Sensor: Secure it to the bracket using the supplied screws, ensuring a tight fit to prevent vibration.
4. Reconnect Wiring: Plug the sensor’s connector into the vehicle’s harness. Double‑check polarity and connector orientation.
5. Reassemble Components: Reinstall brake calipers, wheel, and tire. Reconnect the battery.
6. System Check: Use a diagnostic scan tool to confirm that the ABS module registers the new sensor’s output without fault codes.

• Easy Installation: The integrated cable and standardized mounting simplify the replacement process for technicians.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

If you encounter problems after installing the sensor, consider the following checks:

1. Connector Polarity: Verify that the connector is seated correctly; reversed polarity can cause ABS faults.
2. Cable Integrity: Inspect for cuts or abrasions that could introduce noise into the signal.
3. Mounting Alignment: Ensure the sensor’s magnetic gap aligns precisely with the wheel hub teeth to avoid missed pulses.
4. Electrical Noise: Check surrounding wiring for interference; relocate if necessary.
5. Diagnostic Scan: Use an OBD‑II scanner to read ABS fault codes and confirm sensor output frequency matches expected values.

Maintenance Tips

• Periodically inspect the sensor’s connector for corrosion, especially in coastal or high‑humidity environments.
• Avoid exposing the sensor housing to harsh chemicals; if contact occurs, clean with a mild detergent and dry thoroughly.
• During routine brake service, verify that the sensor remains securely mounted and that the cable is free of damage.
