If you are replacing this assembly with a Ford replace the sensor with a Ford sensor

installed many of these units, the ABS light came on and stayed on both calipers which were in good condition and never had any problems before replacing this unit other than bad bearings in the old one I took. I went online to find out why this light only came on after replacing this unit. Everyone said their ABS sensor isn't Ford compatible and you can clean it with a scanner or drive it about 30mph or 10 miles or more and it will clear itself, that never happened, I didn't have one Troubled with it on the road until after about 30 miles it started pulling to the right so I pulled over and it was so hot I couldn't touch the wheel. I waited a few minutes, thought about it and made my decision to turn around and go home. For some reason I got home and parked it. Then I checked the wheel. Surprisingly everything was cold. The next day I picked it up and removed the caliper which was supposed to be blocking but worked fine before and now but the fairly new pads and rotor were discolored from the heat, after removing the rotor you could clearly see that the Sensor wire had melted and I could barely turn the hub assembly, and although it's very tight, doesn't squeak or wobble, I dare not drive it because it's just putting a strain on your transmission, it was constantly downshifting to keep the truck moving hold up so now again I'll just replace it with a Moog block, I think that's all caused by cheap ABS. The sensor that comes with this device. I think Timkin makes great bearings and they should stick to what they do best and not go cheap with an unnecessary sensor. I fucking doubt I'll get my money back because the company wants you to pay to return it They can diagnose the problem and then blame it on something else so they don't have to issue a refund or replacement. I was just lucky the truck didn't catch fire.

Pros
  • . Still happy
Cons
  • . Some difficulties.
