5.3 Rotor Replacement Procedure

1.With a small pair of needle-nose pliers, firmly grip the center of the rotor pin (axle) and with a twisting motion, bend the rotor pin into an "S" shape. This should pull the ends of the pin out of the shaft retainers and free the rotor assembly.

2.Remove shaft retainer from each side by gently tapping it inwards using a punch. Install a new shaft retainer with the rotor shaft clearance hole inward. Only install one shaft retainer at this time.

3.Insert the new rotor assembly and bearings into the rotor housing of the sensor and place the new rotor pin (axle) through the open end of the rotor housing, through the rotor and bearings, and into the previously installed shaft retainer.

4.Tap the second shaft retainer (rotor shaft clear- ance hole inwards) into the hole while lining up the rotor pin with the center of the shaft retaining hole. This completes the rotor replacement procedure.
