How to Test an ABS Wheel Sensor

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

Video tutorial

In this interesting video, you can see the method to test the ABS wheel speed sensor: take the sensor, disconnect the connector that goes to the sensor itself, and insert two pins into the socket - which is split in two halves - one positive and one negative, through which we will pass alternating current.

Now turn the wheel hub, and you will see that the voltmeter simultaneously detects values; this means that the sensor is functioning correctly, as this is how the sensor does its job, generating voltage when the wheel turns.

This is the method to test the sensor.
