Speed sensors??

[Vanniek71]

I have been searching the internet now for hours, and I cannot find a place to buy 2 factory speed sensors for the front right and left of my xB.

Anyone buy these before? Where, who, how much, please let me know!

I know The walmart tire and lube here can get and put new ones on. Most custom rims they wont touch though

Well they cost like 125 each from the dealer.

Yeah I know thats why I'm trying to avoid the dealer. Thats $250 for 2 wires with a sensor on the end of it :-?


Local junkyard has an xB gonna see if I can snag those

ill like to let you know that although you saved money on the sensors you might still have to pay to have the dealer program them for you.. unless someone has figured out a way to do it and i dont know or havent red it, the dealer has to put the scan tool on the car, delete the old sensor number and add the new sensor, which would require to partially unmount a tire.. so in the end, the dealer might still get you..


almost forgot, this is given the fact that you have the old broken sensor with you, if you dont the dealer would probably be forced to unmount all the tires, get the serial numbers off the sensors, match them up to the scan tool, then go in and delete the old one and program the new one....

there is a way to keep from unmounting the tires, it just depends on how smart the service dept is.. LOL..

you have to program the little sensor that just bolts in to the knuckle assembly? My xB isn't going anywhere lol there is no wheels, the radiator support is torn off and the knuckles, brakes, everything is ripped apart for the time being.

Why would these have to be reprogrammed if they came off an '05 xb as well?
