How to Replace Transition Speed Sensor 2006-10 Ford Explorer

Wheel speed sensors send data to the ABS system, which uses it to determine if the vehicle is sliding, or skidding. A sensor that is not working correctly will usually trigger an ABS dash light. This video shows you how to install a new rear wheel speed sensor on your 2006-10 Ford Explorer.

This repair was done on a 2008 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer 4.0L and the process should be similar on the following vehicles:
2006 Ford Explorer
2007 Ford Explorer
2008 Ford Explorer
2009 Ford Explorer
2010 Ford Explorer

Does this also go for a 2012 Ford explorer 3.5l v6 or does the transmission have to be opened up in order to change them?

We have a 2011 Ford Ranger 4.0 L-4wd and there's almost no clearance on top of the transmission. Did you remove a heat shield to access yours?

Would love to know what Size that mounting bot is. Getting tired Of blindly groping with a wrench that may not even fit

[papawsgaming]

is this part also called a transmission RANGE sensor, or is that something else?

Where is mission speed sensor located on a four-by-four 2006 explorer

Your video sucked! You only explained how to replace the sensor and showed the general area of where it was. To many obstacles in the way.
