Front Speed Sensor Installation

Set the sensor into the knuckle, and then install the sensor with the bolt.

Torque:

8.5 N*m{87 kgf*cm, 75 in.*lbf}

NOTICE:

1. Keep the sensor tip and sensor installation hole free from foreign matter.
   
2. Firmly insert the sensor body into the knuckle before tightening the bolt.
   
3. After installing the sensor to the knuckle, make sure that there is no clearance between the sensor stay and knuckle. Also make sure that no foreign matter is stuck between the parts.
   
4. To prevent interference between the sensor and magnetic rotor, do not rotate the sensor body during or after the insertion of the sensor body to the knuckle.
   

Install the sensor clamp and sensor clip as follows.

1. Simultaneously perform the following: 1) hang the hook part of the sensor clamp (labeled A) on the part of the flexible hose bracket (labeled C); and 2) insert the hook part of the sensor clamp (labeled B) to the part of the flexible hose bracket (labeled D).
   

   NOTICE:

   Do not twist the sensor wire when installing the clamp.

2. Install the sensor clamp to the flexible hose clamp and flexible hose bracket with the bolt (labeled E).
   

   Torque:

   18.5 N*m{189 kgf*cm, 14 ft.*lbf}

3. Insert the sensor clip (labeled F) into the hole on the absorber lower bracket.
   

Install the sensor clamp and sensor clip as follows.

1. Set the sensor clamp (labeled G) on the side member, and then install the bolt (labeled H).
   

   Torque:

   8.5 N*m{87 kgf*cm, 75 in.*lbf}

   NOTICE:

   Do not twist the sensor wire when installing the clamp.

2. Insert the sensor clip (labeled I) into the hole on the apron.
   

Connect the sensor connector.
