Detailed Description

This ABS wheel speed sensor tone ring is used by the anti-lock brake system to generate the wheel speed signal at the hub or axle area. When the original ring is rusted, cracked, or distorted, the ABS module may receive an inconsistent signal.

The steel construction and 48-tooth profile support accurate sensor reading on the listed applications.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• ABS warning light caused by a damaged tone ring
