Default speed sensor?

I got a 1222 message and when I went to check the rf speed sensor.....well there was no sensor! Somehow, the sensor and wire harness was ripped off and lost. Anyone know how much the part costs?

Your profile doesn't show what year/model of car that you have .. you should at least update that information.


The sensor cannot be bought and replaced seperetly ... it is a part of the hub assembly. You will need to order a new hub (SHOULD be part # 07470569 ) to fix the problem.

Because the speed sensor is in it. Are you sure you are not just missing the harness?

I appreciate that....it really helps! Thats exactly what it looks like. I just went to autozone but they told me its an abs sensor and it comes with the wheel hub for $163. Does that sound about right?
