On front wheel drive vehicles the sensor is mounted on the engine/transaxle

assembly adjacent to the magnet.

&  Determine what’s behind the sensor bracket mounting surface before you install the

bracket so you won’t accidentally penetrate fuel lines, brake lines, vacuum lines, control

cables or electrical wiring.

Choose mounting locations for the sensor mounting bracket and support

bracket. Make sure the support bracket reinforces the sensor mounting

bracket against vibration.

Adjust the bracket assembly for the proper gap between the reed switch tip

and the magnet.

Adjust the magnet mounting position so that the magnet passes opposite the

tip of the sensor.

Cinch tie wrap tight against CV joint hub.

Check the alignment of the magnet mount with end of sensor by spinning

tires if possible.

Route the sensor wires into your vehicle using the following guidelines.

❏ Use the split flexible tubing to protect the sensor wires from the sensor

mounting bracket up to where they enter the vehicle cabin. The tubing

can be cut into pieces and used to protect the wires from sharp points

and edges or where the leads are tie wrapped to the underbody. Also

use the tubing where the wires are particularly exposed.

❏ Use the small tie wraps to hold the leads against the underbody of your

vehicle.

❏ If a vehicle wire bundle is readily accessible, route the sensor leads

along this wire bundle.

❏ The sensor leads should be routed at least 12” (30 cm) away from

sparkplug wires, the coil, and the alternator.

❏ Loops, coils, and folds should be avoided in order to avoid creating

unwanted interference that might result in erroneous readings.
