generate a square wave output signal. The signal
acts in proportion to the rotational speed of the
sensor ring. The ABS sensor rings are built into
the seals in the front wheel bearings. The ABS
module evaluates the signals from all four sensors
to calculate a vehicle speed signal based on the
rotational speeds of all wheels. The road speed is
transmitted on the CAN bus. The powertrain controlmodule (PCM) uses this signal and the
programmed tire size to calculate the vehicle
speed. The calculated vehicle speed is forwarded
on the CAN bus and is requested by other control
units that need this input information.
Rear wheel sensor
E96824
The sensors are joined to the main wiring harness
using a separate connecting cable.

before proceeding to the next step.
4. If the cause is not visually evident, verify the symptom and refer to the diagnostic tab within
the Ford approved diagnostic tool.
Components Tests
Steering Linkage
1. Grasp the steering wheel firmly and move it upand down and to the left and right without
turning the steering wheel to check the steering
column bearing for wear, steering column shaft
for wear, steering wheel for looseness and
steering column for looseness. If the steering
column bearing or the steering column shaft is
worn install a new steering column. If the
steering wheel or the steering column is loose,
tighten the steering wheel or the steering column
retaining bolts.
2. With the road wheels in the straight ahead position, gently turn the steering wheel to the
left and the right to check for free play in the
steering linkage.
3. There should be no excessive free play at the steering wheel rim. If there is excessive free
play, CHECK the tie-rod inner and outer ball
joints, REFER to Tie-Rod Component Test in
this procedure. CHECK the steering column
universal joint, REFER to Steering Column
Universal Joint Component Test in this
procedure. If there is no free play in the tie-rod
and the steering column, install a new steering
gear.
Tie-Rod
CAUTION: Steering gear boots must be
handled carefully to avoid damage. Use
new steering boot clamps when installing
the steering gear boots.
NOTE: Noises such as knocks, which may appear
to originate from the steering linkage, may also be
generated by front suspension components.
REFER to: Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH)
(100-04 Noise, Vibration and Harshness,

Steering Gear Checks After a Collision
General EquipmentFeeler gauge
Straight edge
Items to be observed when checking the steering
system
The following list of steering gear conditions and
the methods of testing should be taken into account
when carrying out checks to the steering system:
• If the steering gear has no faults after completing the following checks, do not install
a new steering gear.
• Surface corrosion and marks on the tie-rod are acceptable.
• When checking for turning effort torque peaks in the steering gear, turn the steering wheel from
steering lock stop to steering lock stop in
approximately 15 seconds.
• A steady increase of turning effort torque from steering center to steering lock stop is
acceptable.
• When checking for power steering fluid leaks, turn the steering wheel to the steering lock stop
in approximately 10 seconds.
• Noises from the power steering, for example the power steering pump relief valve, are
acceptable.
STEERING GEAR HOUSING
1. Raise and support the vehicle. REFER to: Lifting(100-02 Jacking and Lifting,
Description and Operation).
2. Visually inspect the steering gear housing for cracks and damage. If the steering gear housing
is cracked or damaged, install a new steering
gear.
REFER to: Steering Gear (211-02 Power
Steering, Removal and Installation).
TIE-RODS
1. Using a straight edge and feeler gauge, check the tie-rods to see if they are straight. If the
distance between the tie-rod and straight edge is greater than 0.5 mm, install a new steering
gear.
REFER to:
Steering Gear (211-02 Power
Steering, Removal and Installation).
2. Check the tightening torque of the tie-rod end to wheel knuckle nut.
REFER to: Tie Rod End (211-03 Steering
Linkage, Removal and Installation).
3. Check the tightening torque of the tie-rod end locking nut.
REFER to: Tie Rod End (211-03 Steering
Linkage, Removal and Installation).
CHECK FOR TURNING EFFORT TORQUE
PEAKS IN THE STEERING GEAR
1. Lower and support the vehicle making sure that the road wheels are just clear of the floor.
2. With the ignition switch in position I, slowly turn the steering wheel from steering lock stop to
steering lock stop. If a turning effort torque peak
or judder is felt while turning the steering wheel,
detach the tie-rods from the wheel knuckles.
3. Slowly turn the steering wheel from steering lock stop to steering lock stop. If a turning effort
torque peak or judder is felt while turning the
steering wheel, install a new steering gear.
REFER to: Steering Gear (211-02 Power
Steering, Removal and Installation).
CHECK FOR POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKS
1. Lower the vehicle.
2. Run the engine at a fast idle and slowly turn the steering wheel to the left-hand steering lock
stop. Hold the steering wheel in this position for
5 seconds with a turning effort torque of 15 Nm
at the steering wheel rim.
3. Turn the steering wheel away from the left-hand steering lock stop for 30 seconds.
4. Run the engine at a fast idle and slowly turn the steering wheel to the right-hand steering lock
stop. Hold the steering wheel in this position for
5 seconds with a turning effort torque of 15 Nm
at the steering wheel rim.
5. Turn the steering wheel away from the right-hand steering lock stop.
6. Check for power steering fluid leaks at the steering gear housing and the power steering
line connections to the steering gear. If there is
