2) Measure ABS sensor resistance.
ABS sensor Terminal No. Standard
Front - LH 1 and 2
1.0±0.2 kΩ Front - RH 1 and 2
Rear - LH 1 and 2
Rear - RH 1 and 2
CAUTION:
If resistance is outside the standard value, replace
ABS sensor with new one.
NOTE:
Check ABS sensor cable for discontinuity. If necessary,
replace with a new one.
G4M0448
2. TONE WHEEL
1) Check tone wheel’s teeth (44 pieces) for cracks or
dents. If necessary, replace tone wheel with a new one.
2) Clearances (sensor gaps) should be measured one by
one to ensure tone wheel and speed sensor are installed
correctly.
ABS sensor clearance:
Front
0.9—1.4 mm (0.035—0.055 in)
Rear
0.7—1.2 mm (0.028—0.047 in)
NOTE:

If clearance is narrow, adjust by using spacer (Part No.
26755AA000).

If clearance is wide, check the outputted voltage then
replace ABS sensor or tone wheel if the outputted voltage
is outside the specification.

0.9—1.4 mm (0.035—0.055 in)
Tightening torque:
32±10 N⋅m (3.3±1.0 kg-m, 24±7 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
Check the marks on the harness to make sure that no
distortion exists. (RH: white, LH: yellow)
NOTE:
If the clearance is outside specifications, readjust.
2. REAR ABS SENSOR
1) Install rear tone wheel on hub, then rear housing on
hub.
G4M0445
2) Temporarily install rear ABS sensor on back plate.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to strike ABS sensor’s pole piece and
tone wheel’s teeth against adjacent metal parts during
installation.
