WHEEL SPEED SENSOR REMOVAL TIP
APPLICABLE MODEL(S)/VINS
2001-2005 Tribute
DESCRIPTION
When servicing the wheel speed sensors on a 2001-2005 Tribute, care must be taken during removal, such as removal for pinpoint testing, to prevent
damage. The wheel speed sensor wire has a body plug attached to it. This plug can be damaged if not removed correctly. If the body plug is damaged,
sensor replacement may be necessary even though the sensor is functional in all other respects.
REPAIR PROCEDURE
When removing the body plug, rotate the plug into a position that allows the use of a small screwdriver to release the tabs on the underside of the body
plug. These two tabs are at right angles (directly above and below) to the sensor wire. See the following illustrations for reference.
