- Quick video for the DIYer on how to replace front ABS sensor. Can be used to just help locate the sensor or as video to follow along, with simple instructions how to remove it. Vehicle is a 2009 Mercedes Benz C350.
*** Make sure you use the same exact part number. This model has different part numbers that will fit the car. Wrong part number will result in different wheel speed readings and error ABS won't work.

Pressing down on the top of the wire on the bracket (connector) will release it. That way, you don't remove the retaining clip entirely and risk the chance of losing it. Also, the car may need to be driven to turn off the MIL and clear any related codes. You will get an engine light, traction control error light, ABS light, and even transmission codes, all associated with a bad speed sensor. This procedure works with a 2014 C-Class (W204), as well.
You are the first person who explains each step by actually doing it. Instead, I took it off already, then video tape it like I want to see how you do it 😅 great video
I was about to book my C220 in to a dealer. But this video might as well be my car !! (its even same colour) Thank you for a consise, clear video. I know what im doing this weekend
Glad its helpful! Do you know for sure the sensor is bad?
@Sergy Tsema I've had the steering angle sensor replaced, (£300) by my mechanic. He found this issue on his reader connected to the car.The fault went away for a while. A year later it has returned, every so often the ESP warning comes on. I have to keep resetting it. My mechanic plugged his laptop in and it shows no fault.! He suspects n intermittent fault on one of the sensors So, I'm going to replace all the sensors.
@@geoffmelville5316 Id recommend spending 100 bucks for a diagnostic tool, I think I got a foxwell? Its what I used to diagnose my sensor. It was showing me going 12mph at a standstill ha
For the drivers side sensor port pressing down on the wire clip released the wire HOWEVER on the passenger side I found it necessary to lift up and remove the clip as he did
in this video. 2012 C250---drivers side one sensor port wire on passenger side two port wires--Brake pad indicator AND speed sensor.
Looks like that may be the same process for my E class Coupe too - will need to check when I have time, nice clear video - my only comment would be that when doing more than changing a wheel, I would not rely on a jack for support, especially those factory supplied ones. Axle stands are the safest solution.
Very good. Thank you very very much. You have shown me how to do it. Bless you! Keep it up and continue helping others!
Well explained. Thanks from Punjab India God Bless You
My pleasure
Jack Stand, my friend.
Thanks for the video.
Great vid pal. Clear and concise.
Thanks very much.Great video and very well explained.
Why is there two sensors on the front right and one on other wheels?
I think there is only one per wheel. The other cable might be for the pad thickness sensor.
Good job..from Malaysia
The ultimate question.
How do you know the sensor needs to be replaced? I am experiencing the sudden loss of ABS and other features when I make a hard left turn. I have been told that it’s a speed sensor however it doesn’t throw up a code. I’ve even tried using a scanner that reads abs.
I was able to tell its the speed sensor from my diagnostic tool that reads abs. There is an option to look at realtime speed of each of the sensors. The one that needed replacing was telling the car that its going about 12mph at a standstill.
@@sergytsema hi, could you please tell me the model # of your foxwell scanner, Im having the same issue and I need to read the wheel sensor speed. thanx
@@ech0seeker I bought the n510 elite
Having same issue but although scanner suggests speed sensor it will more likely be magnetic ring in hub. Had same fault with both rear wheels and it was the reluctor rings that were worn
@@sergytsemathe code was C0034? Thank you
Thank you for sharing.
Is it expensive the sensor ?
About $60 I think?
How do you know which wheel sensor to replace?
Use a scanner. Im not sure if the obd2 ones that you can borrow from auto part store will tell you which wheel or not. I use a foxwell scanner I got from ebay for 140 bucks
@@sergytsema chreers!
@@sergytsemahey. Does your foxwell sensor tell you which wheel speed sensor is broken? Mine is A. I am looking at getting a foxwell after payday if it does.
@@silverltc2729 yes it will tell you how fast each wheel is spinning or thinks its spinning. I knew mine needed replacing because it was showing 42 mph at a standstill.
@@sergytsema thank you Sir. My current OBD II scanner doesn't tell me which wheel is wrong.
How did you reset the ABS light?
I dont remember if it went away on its own after I changed it or if I had to reset it. I did buy a scanner for $140 which helped me to diagnose the sensor and can be used to reset the abs. I bought the scanner on ebay, it is a foxwell multi system scanner.
Very good
