Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) Sensors

Technology such as anti-lock brakes (ABS) and electronic stability are now common place thanks to the ABS sensor or wheel speed sensor. A small device, it has a big role to play; monitoring the wheel’s speed and rotation to prevent the brakes from locking. So, it’s important to always fit an OE quality part - anything less could compromise the effectiveness of these safety critical systems. Featuring weather pack connectors and plated pins, and rigorously tested to OE standards, Delphi ABS sensors deliver optimum signal stability and reliability in all conditions, for an accurate, long-lasting sensor that you can fit with confidence.

Latest OE technology

Our ever-expanding range of ABS sensors features the latest digital signal technology. By creating a digital, square wave, Delphi magneto resistive and hall effect sensors only change frequency, not amplitude, improving accuracy, especially at lower speeds. They can also detect the direction of the wheels; forward, reverse and even stop. This is vital for hill hold control, autohold and automatic parking assistance technologies.

Protection from the elements

Given its position, the ABS sensor is particularly vulnerable to contamination from dirt and moisture. That’s why Delphi ABS sensors feature weather-pack connectors that lock out dirt, moisture, chemicals and other contaminants, coupled with plated pins for even great corrosion protection and improved conductivity.

Extreme testing

Water, heat and vibration can all affect a sensors characteristic. So we subject all our sensors to extensive thermal, shock and vibration testing just to be sure. With test temperatures ranging from -40 o C to 140 o C, we know they’ll perform even in the most challenging conditions. Delivering optimum stability and reliability at all times.

Easy installation

For right-fist-time fitment, Delphi ABS sensors are designed to match the OE. With like-for-like mounting and connector designs and wire lengths, technicians can fit quickly and easily, straight from the box.

The complete solution

As well as a growing range of ABS sensors, we also offer advanced diagnostic capability including the ability to read live fault codes and individual wheel speed data, essential repair data through our vehicle technical information package, and expert training and technical support.

Resource Highlights

A common issue with the Model S is the upper ball joint, which can become detached from the arm due to excessive wear from its unique positioning.

Get a refresher on replacing the upper arm on a Tesla Model S with some help from the experts at Delphi. In this video you’ll see:

• How to access the upper arm fixings
• The tools and equipment you’ll need
• The different components found on coil suspension vs air suspension.

What happens if the upper arm is not replaced?

If the ball joint becomes detached from the upper arm, it will allow the wheel to move in the direct of camber and caster, as it will no longer be supported on its vertical axis.

Why is it called a frunk?

A clever portmanteau devised by Tesla drivers, the ‘frunk’ is a combination of the words ‘front’ and ‘trunk’, referring to the space at the front of the car. Because there’s no engine bay inside a Tesla, the space is freed up for shopping – although there is an advised weight limit of 50kg.

How do I access the rear bolt in the upper arm?

The upper arm is fixed into place with a bolt at the back of the wheel arch. You need to remove the wheel arch liner to access the bolt, and remove it from the arm, which can then be pulled clear.
