In this video, we're going to be working with our 2009 Nissan Rogue. We're going to show you how to remove and replace your vehicle's front right ABS or wheel speed sensor. This should be very similar on the front left as well. If you like this video, please click subscribe. We have a ton more information on this and many other vehicles and if you ever need parts for your car, you can follow the link down in the description over to 1AAuto.com. Here are the items you'll need for this repair.

Crack all of your lug nuts loose with a 21 millimeter socket and a breaker bar. Raise and support your vehicle. We're using a lift to make this easier to show you what's going on, but this can easily be done at home with a jack and jack stand. Remove the rest of your lug nuts either by hand or with the help of a 21 millimeter socket. These are kind of deep into the wheel so it helps to use a socket. Remove your wheel and tire from the vehicle.

Use a 10 millimeter socket and ratchet to remove the 10 millimeter ABS sensor hold down bolt. Now this isn't going to be as easy as we're going to make it look. You'll probably want to use some pliers or a screw driver to help wiggle this out. You want to remove your ABS sensor from the hub.

Disconnect the retainers for the ABS sensor, and normally there's a bunch of the plastic push pins here. Ours are all missing. You'll want to pop those out the center with a flat blade screw driver and then pull the whole pin out. You can then peel the wheel liner back and disconnect the connector. And remove the sensor from the vehicle. You may need a small flat blade or a pick to push down on this tab and release the connector.

Reconnect the electrical connector and the bottom retainer. You'll want to reinstall any pins your vehicle has. Send the sensor underneath the brake hose and reinstall those two connectors as well. Reinstall your sensor. Reinstall the 10 millimeter hold down bolt and tighten it down with a 10 millimeter socket and ratchet.

Reinstall your wheel and tire as well as all five of your lug nuts. Now I'm just going to use a 21 millimeter socket and bring the lug nuts down as tight as I can by hand, using that. With the vehicle lowered partially so just a little bit of weight is on the tires to keep them from turning, we'll torque our lug nuts to 80 foot-pounds in a cross pattern.
