FIGURE 15 - WS-24™ WHEEL SPEED SENSOR INSTALLATION
Wheel Speed Sensor Wiring
Route sensor wiring coming out of the wheel ends away from moving brake components. Sensor wiring needs to be secured to the axle to prevent excess cable length and wiring damage. It is required that cable ties be installed to the sensor wire within 3 inches (76.2 mm) of the sensor head to provide strain relief.
Following the axle, the sensor wires must be attached along the length of the service brake hoses using cable ties with ultraviolet protection and secured every 6 to 8 inches (152 to 203 mm). Sufficient – but not excessive – cable length must be provided to permit full suspension travel and steering axle movement. Install wires so that they cannot touch rotating elements such as wheels, brake discs or drive shafts. Radiation protection may be necessary in the area of brake discs.
Bendix does not recommend using standard
The use of grommets or other suitable protection is required whenever the cable must pass through metallic frame members.
All sensor wiring must utilize twisted pair wire, with approx- imately one to two twists per inch.
It is recommended that wires be routed straight out of a connector for a minimum of three inches before the wire is allowed to bend.
