Enhance Vehicle Precision with Speed Sensors

For optimum functionality and safety, it's crucial that your vehicle's speed sensors operate correctly. They play a significant role in determining the speed of your car's wheels and relaying this information to the onboard computer. This data is indispensable for multiple systems such as antilock brakes (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC) ?️.

Why Speed Sensors Are Essential

Speed sensors are integral for the proper functioning of your vehicle's safety and performance systems. By monitoring wheel speed, these sensors ensure that systems such as the ABS can prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking. Furthermore, they contribute to the precise engagement of other safety features that keep your car stable under challenging conditions.

Functionality and Working Mechanism

The sensor works by capturing the rotational speed of the wheel and transmitting the data to the vehicle's ECU. Through a magnetic field, it measures the changes in this field as the wheel turns, translating it into digital signals ?. These signals are then processed to maintain optimal vehicle performance.

Consequences of a Malfunctioning Sensor

A broken speed sensor can lead to inaccurate speed readings and inadequate functioning of the ABS and traction control system. This can compromise your ability to maintain control during evasive maneuvers, possibly leading to increased braking distance and loss of traction ⚠️. Diagnosing and replacing faulty speed sensors is crucial for sustained vehicle safety and performance.
