Chrysler Aspen ABS Wheel Speed Sensor in US

Your Chrysler Aspen ABS wheel speed sensor is the component that makes anti-lock braking possible on your Aspen. It monitors the rotational speed of each wheel in real time and sends that data to the Chrysler Aspen ABS control module, which uses it to prevent wheel lockup during emergency stops. When a sensor fails on your Aspen, your ABS loses the input it needs. On wet, icy, or gravel road surfaces, the difference between a controlled stop and a skid can come down to whether your Chrysler Aspen wheel speed data is reaching the module.

What Is the ABS Wheel Speed Sensor on Your Chrysler Aspen

The ABS wheel speed sensor on the Chrysler Aspen is an electromagnetic or Hall-effect sensor mounted near each wheel hub or bearing assembly of your Aspen. It generates an electronic signal as a toothed reluctor ring rotates past it, producing a frequency the Aspen ABS module interprets as wheel speed. On most modern Chrysler Aspen vehicles, this same data feeds the traction control system, electronic stability control, and electronic brake force distribution, making a functioning wheel speed sensor critical to the safe operation of multiple Aspen systems simultaneously.

Signs of a Failing ABS Wheel Speed Sensor on the Chrysler Aspen

• ABS warning light on your Chrysler Aspen dashboard, the most common first indicator of a failing sensor
• Traction control or stability control warning light illuminated alongside the Aspen ABS light
• ABS activating on your Chrysler Aspen during normal stops at low speed where it should not engage
• Complete ABS deactivation on the Aspen, wheels lock under hard braking on wet or icy roads
• Speedometer on your Chrysler Aspen reading erratically or dropping to zero at speed
• Fault codes in the C0035 to C0050 range stored in the Chrysler Aspen ABS control module

Passive vs. Active ABS Sensors for the Chrysler Aspen

GeoBrakes stocks both passive and active ABS wheel speed sensors for the Chrysler Aspen. Passive sensors use an analog signal and are found on older Aspen vehicles and many trucks still in service. Active Hall-effect sensors require a small power supply and output a clean digital signal, offering greater accuracy at very low speeds. Active sensors are standard on most Chrysler Aspen vehicles manufactured after the mid-2000s and are required for full compatibility with modern Aspen traction and stability control systems.

Why GeoBrakes for the Chrysler Aspen ABS Wheel Speed Sensor

Signal accuracy matters as much as fitment with Chrysler Aspen wheel speed sensors. A sensor that generates the correct frequency for your Aspen ABS module ensures consistent ABS calibration, proper traction control thresholds, and accurate stability control response on your Chrysler Aspen. Every sensor in the GeoBrakes catalogue is matched to the Chrysler Aspen through our vehicle selector, with front and rear positions listed separately to eliminate position errors on your Aspen.

Frequently Asked Questions - Chrysler Aspen ABS Wheel Speed Sensor

Can I drive my Chrysler Aspen with a faulty ABS wheel speed sensor?

You can drive the Chrysler Aspen with a failed ABS sensor, but the anti-lock braking system on your Aspen will be completely disabled. On icy or wet American roads, this significantly increases stopping distances and the risk of losing steering control during hard braking on your Chrysler Aspen. Replacing a failed sensor promptly is strongly recommended, particularly before winter.

How do I find the right ABS sensor for my Chrysler Aspen?

Use the GeoBrakes vehicle selector and enter the Chrysler Aspen year, make, and model. The system displays only the sensors confirmed to fit the Chrysler Aspen, with front and rear positions listed separately. Select the position matching the sensor you are replacing on your Aspen to avoid receiving the wrong unit.

Do I need to replace all four ABS sensors on my Chrysler Aspen at the same time?

No. ABS wheel speed sensors on the Chrysler Aspen are independent components and only the failed unit needs to be replaced. However, if your Aspen has high mileage and one sensor has failed, it is worth visually inspecting the connectors on the other Chrysler Aspen sensors for corrosion while the wheel is removed.
