What is the reason why the ABS sensor of Sagitar always fails?
2 Answers
Sagitar ABS sensor always fails may be due to working in a low-resistance state, which is prone to heat and damage. The following is relevant information: 1. ABS sensor: The ABS sensor is used in the ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) of motor vehicles. Most ABS systems use inductive sensors to monitor vehicle speed. 2. Working principle: The ABS sensor interacts with a toothed ring that rotates synchronously with the wheel, outputting a set of quasi-sinusoidal AC signals. The frequency and amplitude of these signals are related to the wheel speed. This output signal is transmitted to the ABS electronic control unit (ECU) to achieve real-time monitoring of wheel speed.
As someone who frequently repairs cars, I've seen many cases where the ABS sensors on Sagitars keep failing. These components are installed near the wheels and are particularly prone to getting covered in mud and water, especially after driving on rough roads in rainy weather. Some owners opt for cheap aftermarket parts that fail within months. Additionally, improper installation—either the sensor not being properly secured or the connector not being tightly plugged in—can cause it to loosen due to driving vibrations. Aging wiring is another major issue; cracked wire harnesses or rodent damage can lead to intermittent current flow, causing sensor errors. I recommend having a mechanic check the sensor's resistance with a diagnostic tool during every maintenance session, always choosing OEM parts for replacements, and cleaning any mud buildup around the sensor.
