ABS Sensor for the front wheel of the anti-lock braking system.

This wheel speed sensor monitors rotational speed at the front hub and signals it to the ABS control unit, which modulates brake pressure to prevent wheel lock-up under braking. This is the long-body type, terminating in loose wires rather than an integral connector plug.

Frequently asked questions

What is the SSW500020 ABS Sensor and what does it do?
The SSW500020 ABS Sensor is the front wheel speed sensor for the Land Rover Discovery 2 anti-lock braking system. It monitors rotational speed at the front hub and signals the ABS control unit, which modulates brake pressure to prevent the front wheels locking under heavy braking.
What's the difference between this sensor and the short type?
This is the long-body front ABS sensor that terminates in loose wires rather than an integral connector plug. The short-type front sensor is the separate part TAR100060. Match the body length and wiring termination to your Discovery 2 loom before ordering, as the two are not interchangeable.
What are the symptoms of a faulty front ABS sensor?
A faulty front ABS sensor typically triggers the ABS and traction warning lights and can disable the anti-lock function on that corner. On the Discovery 2, causes usually include a damaged sensor tip, corroded wiring, or debris on the tone ring. A fault code for the front wheel usually points to the sensor.
Where is this sensor fitted and can I replace it at home?
The front ABS sensor mounts at the front hub of the Discovery 2, reading the tone ring on the drive member. Replacing it is usually a DIY job, freeing the sensor and routing the loose-wire tail back to the loom connector. Clean the mounting bore so the new sensor seats to the correct air gap.
