- A malfunctioning ABS sensor might trigger a dashboard light
- Can be clogged or damaged by brake dust and road debris
Your ABS Wheel Speed Sensor (Rear) can be found on your Nissan's wheels. The ABS Wheel Speed Sensor (Rear) calculates wheel speed and relays that information back to the onboard anti-lock braking system (ABS) computer. Using that information, the ABS computer keeps the brakes from locking up in the case of emergency braking.
When your ABS Wheel Speed Sensor (Rear) or ABS isn't working the way it should, the brakes on your Nissan may lock up, causing some wheels to stop spinning and others to keep spinning. If the brakes lock up when it's time to brake, you could lose control of your Nissan. Once the ABS Wheel Speed Sensor (Rear) realizes that the wheels are turning at various intervals, the ABS will adjust the brakes until your wheels are rotating the same.
If the ABS Wheel Speed Sensor (Rear) becomes damaged or starts to malfunction, it may no longer send the right data or stop communicating altogether to the ABS, and it will not properly regulate your brakes during an emergency braking situation. A broken ABS Wheel Speed Sensor (Rear) might also illuminate your ABS light or the Malfunction Indicator Light on the dashboard.
These ABS Wheel Speed Sensor (Rear) issues can occur when contaminants such as brake dust, dirt, and road debris clog the wheel sensor or if it becomes encounters heavy-duty elements or accidents. If your ABS Wheel Speed Sensor (Rear) is no longer working as it should, it's crucial to have it replaced immediately.
