Front Speed Sensor: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Toyota Corolla. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

HINT:

Use the same procedure for the LH side and RH side.
The following procedure is for the LH side.
If the sensor rotor needs to be replaced, replace it together with the front drive outboard joint shaft assembly, (for TMC Made)
If the sensor rotor needs to be replaced, replace it together with the front drive shaft assembly, (for TMMC, NUMMI Made)

INSTALL FRONT SPEED SENSOR (for TMC Made)
1. Install the front speed sensor with the bolt.
  Torque: 8.5 N*m (87 kgf*cm, 76 in.*lbf)
  NOTE:
  - Prevent foreign matter from attaching to the sensor tip.
  - Do not file the sensor installation hole or surface because the gap between the magnet rotor and front speed sensor is important.

3. Install the brake flexible hose with the bolt.
  Torque: 29 N*m (296 kgf*cm, 21 ft.*lbf)
  NOTE:
  - Do not twist the front speed sensor wire harness during installation.
  - Tighten the brake flexible hose and front speed sensor together with the bolt. Make sure that the front speed sensor is positioned over the flexible hose.
