Great video, very helpful. Some words of advice. Take your time working the old speed sensor out. I twisted the top portion too hard and it sheared off the lower portion in the hole. I had to drill some screws into the plastic and it finally came out in a few pieces. Accessing the wiring harness connection area is very challenging, especially if you have large hands.
Nicely done! I've reviewed quite a few videos trying to figure out how to replace my Jeep's wheel speed sensor, and yours was the best by far. Thank you!
I know this an old video but the stealership charged me 800 bucks to put my wheel hub/speed sensor on...I'm too blew..great video and I'm trying to learn about every component on my 2007 Jeep Wrangler!!!!
First and last video I needed to watch thank you very much. Your video was super high quality. Perfect distance. And sound was perfect. Hope you do more Jeep JK vids. You know what your doing. Not sore why anyone would give a thumbs down but I guess those people are out there. Lol
I'm glad I watched this first! I might go get a torque wrench before I start now, I didn't realize it would be so involved for the $35 parts haha. Stupid lights have been on for 30,000 miles though, I'm looking forward to having cruise control back! Thanks for the video, nice quality, sound, etc. Well done!
The hardest part of the whole job is unclipping the stupid red harness connector. Was really hoping to see that in action. Have no idea how to do it. I'm about to cut the wire and splice it out of frustration.
Chris you are a godsend! i made the unwise choice of driving over a styrene foam cooler and I think I snagged the right front sensor...in the morning ill get cracking! many thanks, man!
Your video was perfect in every way. Thank you so much dude!! People like you save us all lots of money by skipping the mechanic and doing some projects at home.
very well done, easy to follow. Been watching mine as goes off/on however living on a 2 mile mountain road that can be rough or icy in the winter. A few times it goes off on dry pavement so will get a scan. Thanks again.
Great video man. I’m going to have to tackle this Tomorrow for the front right sensor. This video helped tremendously with info for what I’m up against.
Good job on the battery isolator. My rotors were pretty tough to get off when I did mine. Had to get a bfh and "persuade" them. Also my Jeep wouldnt give me a code as to which sensor was bad so I just did them all.
I had the same problem but I took my Jeep to a local Firestone dealership. They off a curtesy code scan. Unlike Autozone or Advanced Auto, Firestone's scanner will pull history codes. Drivers front was defective. Bought 1 sensor and swapped it out and problem went away.
My driver's side wheel speed sensor on my 2014 JKU just started randomly lighting up and throwing a code. Guess I better change it. thanks for the video.
Good job! Great verbal instruction and video. I don't know if I need a new sensor or not. I drive the interstate daily and occasionally (1-2 times a month), my traction control light comes on. Nothing changes as far as drivability, but I don't know what would cause this to happen periodically? It is level ground, constant speed (cruise control is on).
Pete Minter i have a video called “how to diagnose the abs light”, that might be helpful. But these stock sensors are notorious for going out, most likely the wheel speed sensors
Thanks for the detailed lesson. I have the problem of the ABS sensor dash lights illuminating. On my 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited. But, when I plug in the FIXD code tool, it shows a U0024 code. Could you please tell me what that code means ? Thank you. Sincerely, Anthony
My Jeep has abs/ebs/4wd/traction control it all came on after my front left wheel bearing started to hum. I’m about to replace the wheel speed sensor. But after I replace the sensor if I wait on the bearing will it get all the lights to shut off?
Joseph French if you replace the sensor, but the bearing is causing the issue, the lights won’t turn off. But the bad wheel bearing won’t ruin a new sensor.. i say just do the job at the same time, you have to take out the sensor to put in a new wheel bearing anyways.. just my .02!
I just replaced mine using this video - thanks, but now I still can't get the 3 warning lights off. They now turn off for about 5 seconds after startup and then come back on (before the 3 lights were just on constantly). Any idea? Much appreciated-
I think this is my problem. One question: how do you know which side it’s on? Is it only “front” and “back”? Or is there a “front driver side” and a “front passenger side”? Thanks!
Raychel Ortiz if you go to autozone, and get them to read the OBD2 reader, it’ll give you a code most likely. From there it’ll tell you exactly which sensor is bad. But there is one sensor per wheel. I figured out by feel, and sort of a lucky guess. But getting the code (should be like U104b or something) and googling it, will help.
ur video describes exactly what is happening to my 2013...checked both sensors and neither had any physical damage so i changed one and drove around the block...mine is triggered by turning left...but when i changed the one, it still showed both warning lights and system still didn't work properly...is there a reset for the warning lights/system or could it b something else causing this system fault???
Neil Crocker you have to reset the computer, just disconnect the negative terminal of the battery for a couple minutes and then reconnect it. There is a sensor on each wheel, so you might’ve replaced the wrong one.
so if there is no physical damage on either how do u know which one it is...also the abs system is still malfunctioning ...ur saying if i changed the right one the computer reset should fix the system warning and work properly?@@developmentdivision122
I have a 2015 Jeep Wrangler sport unlimited I’m driving and all of a sudden my abs light and ebrake light flash on for a split second,my radio loses volume and my speedometer goes to 10mph then goes right back to normal. Turn power off radio it starts playing normal. Any ideas?
Josh Allwine whenever I would start driving, I could feel the Jeep applying ABS to the drivers side front. Its a really weird feeling. But its super obvious which wheel speed sensor i failing.
How do you reset the light on the Dash panel I changed the (2) front sensor and it still remains on. I unplugged the Battery Neg terminal trying to reset. I try to obtain the Code but not able to do so, to determine if I need to replace the rear sensor as well. Your help is well appreciated. WHEN I start the vehicle in the morning the light is off as soon I put it in gear and the vehicle moves it comes on.
Carmen Gonzalez just replace the rear sensors. cheap fix. also good preventative maintenance. then from there if you still have problems, then it’s a bigger issue. i would just replace the rear if the lift remains after replacing the front ones.
I just did my front, broke it when doing ball joints. Anyway I didn't even reset the computer, lights went off after about 2 foot forward driving. I had previously had similar issues as you, intermittent lights and the jeep would actually hit the brakes while taking off. Turned out the twisted pair of wires to my left rear sensor was over twisted from the factory where the harness splits to each side above the rear axle. I unwound about an inch, stripped, soldered and used marine grade heat shrink tube to seal it. No problems now for well over a year. '09 Unlimited Rubi. Hope this helps.
@@developmentdivision122 real issue is there is no way to grease wheel bearing in my 2012 jeep wrangler.. when i pulled out my abs sensor in the back wheels , it looked bone dry inside ..also its making some noise in the morning when i start my trip.. audiable only in slow speeds🤦
The Money Filters you might just need to replace it. One of my wheel bearings dried out too, i ended up just replacing it. I have a video on that too if you are curious or need a how to.
I know you said you had a bad sensor for a year, how did you get your Jeep to ignore it? Mine senses the bad sensor and then makes the ABS activate when I take off so it makes a bad grinding noise.
RDZmichael at the time i pulled the fuses for ABS and ESP. (I have a video on how to do that) that way it shuts off abs and you have no problems. You can still brake normally just know that you won’t have active abs.
very cool I know its my speed sensor but how do I figure out which one the abs and traction light came on when I hit a pot hole and when I had the rear right I could tell and I told the guy at the shop and he said your right but I looked and it might be the left rear I see something like a cord hanging other 3 tires don't see it so how do you tell? I would love to do it myself but I would need someone to help just in case if I were to do right now still under warranty so I better get it done by the shop untl its over lol like your videos
MsLeelee94 alright there’s another video i have named “how to diagnose the ABS light” or something like that. And i show how to figure it out. But if it’s under warranty, have them replace them all. They all usually go bad after a couple of years anyways.
This is very helpful. However, I'm not good at car stuff at all, and this looks like a lot. I also don't want to pay for someone to do it for me. My question is...is it bad to have the sensor broken? What happens if I just leave those two ABS and traction lights on? Will my brakes malfunction? Thanks so much for this great detailed video.
Raychel Ortiz not a big issue. You just won’t have functioning ABS, traction control, or cruise control. It’s not a safety issue or anything. I drove around with the lights on for a while until I fixed it.
This was a great video! Question? Would Channing the rear speed sensor be the same? Do you have a video changing out the rear speed sensor? I need to change mine, but refuse to pay 900.00 if its an easy fix.
I don’t have a video over it, i didn’t change my rear ones. But it is pretty much the same, however i don’t think you need to take off the rotor, i think you can access it from behind. Google it, there are write ups on how to do it on the forums.
My abs, brake and traction control came on today out of nowhere, i'm reading it's usually due to a failed speed sensor, I plan to check it out asap, After the light came I drove the vehicle for an addition hour seemed to be fine, except lights staying on, what are your thoughts? also wondering if it's safe to drive until I have it checked
Mine have been coming on about once a day for 2 months now, usually I shut off the engine and start it back up and the lights go away. As of yesterday turning off and on doesn’t help anymore. It’s on more now. But the feel or the way my liberty drives doesn’t change at all. Plan on driving to Colorado this weekend to see my daughter. Is driving with these lights on or a bad sensor going to hurt my car at all or put me in any danger on my drive to Colorado?
no danger. Just might disable ABS and traction control. If you don’t feel comfortable without ABS and electronic stability, then get a mechanic or autozone to run a diagnostic off the OBD2 sensor. You should get a code that corresponds to the faulty sensor.
I have had to replace two wheel sensors on my '16 Wean with less than 37,000 miles on it. I have never replaced a speed sensor in any other vehicle, ever. I have made a complaint to the NTSB and the process is quick to do so. If enough of us complain about the speed sensor problem, Jeep will be forced to recall them and fix the problem.
I have a question maybe you can help. I changed out the clock spring due to some issue but I still have my abs light on sway traction light, battery light on . I replaced the battery the fan comes on with the switch being off. What do you think
Ernest Sanchez sounds like an electrical nightmare going on. Check the wiring for the fan issue, check for damage on the harness. And the abs + traction is most likely a wheel speed sensor issue. Go to autozone and have them plug up an OBD2 sensor plug up to your jeep and see if it throws any codes.
erwin cuevas yes, and i have video going over how to diagnose the light. But whenever my lights would turn on, my drivers side wheel would lock up. So that’s how i knew.
Chris Meacham okay i went over to your other video. I did turn the key three times. However I got the code P-2110. Which says electric throttle control. I did my research but I guess that code comes up with the check engine light. The only light I have that comes up, is the ESP/BAS on my dash board.
What was your sensor issue? My 2018 JK has the ABS and traction control lights on all the time. I am not throwing any codes, so I am assuming its the wheel speed sensor.
Great video bud! Very thorough explaing part names and socket sizes. Made me laugh when you said l, "once you crack it loose it should just be hand tight." Lol but very great vid, keep Jeepin
CowboyRome you can either cycle the key three times and it’ll give you the code. Or just feel it out when your abs randomly kicks in. For me it would randomly apply the drivers side front brake.
Chris Meacham I have a 2006 commander and dont feel a difference in the drive but when I put it in 4low the rear left sounds like it wants to snap of when I turn. But I can still drive it fine. It doesn't show any codes but my ABS light plus esp and traction light stays on while the computer shows service 4wheel drive system! What do you think? BTW.... I wish I had abs.......
*Jeep Wrangler 2010* Lately, the *ESC (electronic stability control)* light comes on intermittently after starting the engine and driving for the first few minutes then they go out for good. Today, I turned the *ESC* switch off manually. Then the *ESP/BAS, ABS* lights came on, in addition to the *ESC* light. I pulled over and turned the engine off. Restarted it a few minutes later, drove for a couple of seconds, all the lights went out. However, the *ESC* light came on, intermittently again and went out after a while. Is this an indication of of a bad speed sensor(s)? Any idea as to what else could be causing it? Thanks.
@@developmentdivision122 Thanks for replying boss. I was not looking forward to mess with them speed sensors. Now, it looks like I will have to watch your video a few more times and try to "convince" myself I am up to the task. I appreciate your time.
savagecomanche no, the sensor has been a problem since before the wheel hub was ever a problem. I’ve had a bad sensor for almost a year until i fixed it, i just kept putting it off.
I hope you took that retaining washer you had on the hub and threw that thing away and NEVER put them back on, especially if you are using wheel spacers. The spacers need to sit flush against your hubs.. Those things are just junk they put on at the factory. Most people just toss them as soon as they buy new wheels or tires. Also a good idea to use a torque wrench to bolt them (wheels and spacers) on to the correct torque spec.
Use the “live data” option on a scan tool. You can access the ABS data, where it will list the FR, FL, RR, RL speed sensors and their respective data outputs. The problem sensors will show an “error” or an imposible value. Roll the car forwards and back while monitoring the wheel sensor data.
My traction control light is on a jeep is running sluggish. Reading that it could be these sensors, or camshaft sensor OR and module OR pcm. Lol. Gonna start with these and the camshaft sensor.
I live in upstate NY we have a lot of corossion in those wheels from hard snowy winters. doesnt look anything like your wheels when taken apart. OMG well i will have to have it diagnosed and hopefully its back or front sensors and not all 4. looks like back ones are easier front look a little more involved. of course i am worried, just hope the automotive place doesnt take me for a ride when i get there and tell me i need all of them. too bad some of these places like to do that to women.
How did you ever get those spacers to lay flat with the factory rotor washers on? Your supposed to remove them .The factory only puts them on so the rotors don`t fall off on the line other than that they have no purpose
I see some "how-to's" for replacement of the sensor and they talk about having a torque wrench and setting the torque for those bolts that hold the caliper/brake assembly on. I see you didn't mention anything about it. Do you see the value in going that detailed or just making sure that it's damn tight and move on? ;)
all my lights are on and im pretty sure this is the problem...... can you or anyone out there tell how to determine which sensor is out? will a code tell me? LF,LR,RL etc thanks
I haven’t done this yet but I did the rear ones n the plugs broke. So if it’s the same plug you can use the similar plugs from a chargers light plug with an easier locking tab. Both mine in rear have been “upgraded”

The hardest part of the whole job is unclipping the stupid red harness connector. Was really hoping to see that in action. Have no idea how to do it. I'm about to cut the wire and splice it out of frustration.

Lol I thought my truck was a lemon...same thing throwing these codes randomly. What a pain in the ass!
you should probably replace that front axle seal too. that oil leaking was probably what did in the sensor

Yes safe to drive. Your abs will not work properly so don’t depend on it when driving.
So bassically , you had the ESP /ABS light On and it went away after doing the install ? Was that all it took ?
Carlitos Norris yes
Mine have been coming on about once a day for 2 months now, usually I shut off the engine and start it back up and the lights go away. As of yesterday turning off and on doesn’t help anymore. It’s on more now. But the feel or the way my liberty drives doesn’t change at all. Plan on driving to Colorado this weekend to see my daughter. Is driving with these lights on or a bad sensor going to hurt my car at all or put me in any danger on my drive to Colorado?
no danger. Just might disable ABS and traction control. If you don’t feel comfortable without ABS and electronic stability, then get a mechanic or autozone to run a diagnostic off the OBD2 sensor. You should get a code that corresponds to the faulty sensor.
How do you tell which speed sensor is bad? If you have a bad one.
I have had to replace two wheel sensors on my '16 Wean with less than 37,000 miles on it. I have never replaced a speed sensor in any other vehicle, ever. I have made a complaint to the NTSB and the process is quick to do so. If enough of us complain about the speed sensor problem, Jeep will be forced to recall them and fix the problem.
I have a question maybe you can help. I changed out the clock spring due to some issue but I still have my abs light on sway traction light, battery light on . I replaced the battery the fan comes on with the switch being off. What do you think
Ernest Sanchez sounds like an electrical nightmare going on. Check the wiring for the fan issue, check for damage on the harness. And the abs + traction is most likely a wheel speed sensor issue. Go to autozone and have them plug up an OBD2 sensor plug up to your jeep and see if it throws any codes.
Did this turn off your ESP/BAS light in your dashboard? I am having the same issue. How did you know it was your driver side sensor?
erwin cuevas yes, and i have video going over how to diagnose the light. But whenever my lights would turn on, my drivers side wheel would lock up. So that’s how i knew.
Chris Meacham okay i went over to your other video. I did turn the key three times. However I got the code P-2110. Which says electric throttle control. I did my research but I guess that code comes up with the check engine light. The only light I have that comes up, is the ESP/BAS on my dash board.
What was your sensor issue? My 2018 JK has the ABS and traction control lights on all the time. I am not throwing any codes, so I am assuming its the wheel speed sensor.
The Downfall of Society yup. Sensor was bad and was causing all these problems
Great video
Omg this is a life saver??
Great video bud! Very thorough explaing part names and socket sizes. Made me laugh when you said l, "once you crack it loose it should just be hand tight." Lol but very great vid, keep Jeepin
So how did you know which sensor it was? Front L/R or Rear L/R?
CowboyRome you can either cycle the key three times and it’ll give you the code. Or just feel it out when your abs randomly kicks in. For me it would randomly apply the drivers side front brake.
Chris Meacham I have a 2006 commander and dont feel a difference in the drive but when I put it in 4low the rear left sounds like it wants to snap of when I turn. But I can still drive it fine. It doesn't show any codes but my ABS light plus esp and traction light stays on while the computer shows service 4wheel drive system! What do you think?
BTW.... I wish I had abs.......
CowboyRome not quite sure. I would search the jeep forums. There is a lot of good quality information there. I don’t know too much about commanders
Should be simple to tackle then this weekend. appreciate the vid..
Goodluck! You got this.
Chris- do you know if codes U1417 or U1418 are specifically for the front sensors?
nevermind
I really enjoyed this vedio, this will help me a lot. Thanks
*Jeep Wrangler 2010*
Lately, the *ESC (electronic stability control)* light comes on intermittently after starting the engine and driving for the first few minutes then they go out for good. Today, I turned the *ESC* switch off manually. Then the *ESP/BAS, ABS* lights came on, in addition to the *ESC* light. I pulled over and turned the engine off. Restarted it a few minutes later, drove for a couple of seconds, all the lights went out. However, the *ESC* light came on, intermittently again and went out after a while.
Is this an indication of of a bad speed sensor(s)? Any idea as to what else could be causing it?
Thanks.
xtr3m3 probably the speed sensor
@@developmentdivision122
Thanks for replying boss.
I was not looking forward to mess with them speed sensors. Now, it looks like I will have to watch your video a few more times and try to "convince" myself I am up to the task.
I appreciate your time.
Were your wheel hubs after market?
jeeps , call of duty & stuff just one side that i replaced. It’s not upgraded or anything, just not the exact Mopar wheel hub/bearing/thingy lol
Does that have any ting to do wit break light bein on
Bany Bany mmm nah
did you break it when you did the wheel hub?
savagecomanche no, the sensor has been a problem since before the wheel hub was ever a problem. I’ve had a bad sensor for almost a year until i fixed it, i just kept putting it off.
Nice dude, I haven't had to do this before. Good to know for when I do. Thanks! =)
Vinny Gullotta no problem! i hope everything is well with you. Have an awesome day
I hope you took that retaining washer you had on the hub and threw that thing away and NEVER put them back on, especially if you are using wheel spacers. The spacers need to sit flush against your hubs.. Those things are just junk they put on at the factory. Most people just toss them as soon as they buy new wheels or tires. Also a good idea to use a torque wrench to bolt them (wheels and spacers) on to the correct torque spec.
Very good video, very helpful. Thx
How did you know which one it was
Use the “live data” option on a scan tool. You can access the ABS data, where it will list the FR, FL, RR, RL speed sensors and their respective data outputs. The problem sensors will show an “error” or an imposible value. Roll the car forwards and back while monitoring the wheel sensor data.
I replaced my front wheel sensor and solved the problem but the lights came on again after 4 days . Any suggestions?
It could be any of the 3 other wheel speed sensors on your jeep.
My traction control light is on a jeep is running sluggish. Reading that it could be these sensors, or camshaft sensor OR and module OR pcm. Lol. Gonna start with these and the camshaft sensor.
Thanks for the video!!
I live in upstate NY we have a lot of corossion in those wheels from hard snowy winters. doesnt look anything like your wheels when taken apart. OMG well i will have to have it diagnosed and hopefully its back or front sensors and not all 4. looks like back ones are easier front look a little more involved. of course i am worried, just hope the automotive place doesnt take me for a ride when i get there and tell me i need all of them. too bad some of these places like to do that to women.
How did you ever get those spacers to lay flat with the factory rotor washers on? Your supposed to remove them .The factory only puts them on so the rotors don`t fall off on the line other than that they have no purpose
I see some "how-to's" for replacement of the sensor and they talk about having a torque wrench and setting the torque for those bolts that hold the caliper/brake assembly on. I see you didn't mention anything about it. Do you see the value in going that detailed or just making sure that it's damn tight and move on? ;)
Blue medium strength threadlocker and tighten to manufacture torque spec. 100ft/lbs for front. 77ft/lbs for rear
all my lights are on and im pretty sure this is the problem...... can you or anyone out there tell how to determine which sensor is out? will a code tell me? LF,LR,RL etc thanks
I have a video on my channel “how to diagnose abs light” and i go over how to figure out which wheel it is
Great job man! Thanks!
The harness plug is such a pain! I've replaced mine tons of times
The Bearded Jeeper eventually im just gonna take out the ABS and ESP system
I haven’t done this yet but I did the rear ones n the plugs broke. So if it’s the same plug you can use the similar plugs from a chargers light plug with an easier locking tab. Both mine in rear have been “upgraded”
