Tightening torque Fig. 1 Removing and installing sensor wheel
- Always replace sensor wheel -2- when screws -1- are removed.
After tightening a second time, the attachment point of the
countersunk screws of the sensor wheel are so deformed that the
screw heads sit against crankshaft (arrows) -3- and the sensor wheel
is loose underneath the screws. Installation of the sensor wheel is only possible in one position; bore
holes are offset.
