ABS Sensor

ABS Sensors, found within the Brake Controls section of your vehicle's braking system (Brakes > Brake Controls > ABS Sensor), are critical components in modern anti-lock braking systems. These sensors monitor the rotational speed of each wheel, providing data to the ABS control module to prevent wheel lockup during braking events. This allows drivers to maintain steering control and reduce stopping distances, especially on slippery surfaces. ABS Sensors typically utilize a toothed reluctor ring and a magnetic sensor to generate a signal proportional to wheel speed. Examples of ABS sensors in our catalog include options for Scania vehicles, such as Scania MPN 1771230 and 1888075, as well as sensors from manufacturers like Wabco and ZF (MPN 0501-215-837). Proper function of these sensors is essential for maintaining vehicle safety.
