Honda Cr V ABS Wheel Speed Sensor in US

Your Honda Cr V ABS wheel speed sensor is the component that makes anti-lock braking possible on your Cr V. It monitors the rotational speed of each wheel in real time and sends that data to the Honda Cr V ABS control module, which uses it to prevent wheel lockup during emergency stops. When a sensor fails on your Cr V, 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 Honda Cr V wheel speed data is reaching the module.

What Is the ABS Wheel Speed Sensor on Your Honda Cr V

The ABS wheel speed sensor on the Honda Cr V is an electromagnetic or Hall-effect sensor mounted near each wheel hub or bearing assembly of your Cr V. It generates an electronic signal as a toothed reluctor ring rotates past it, producing a frequency the Cr V ABS module interprets as wheel speed. On most modern Honda Cr V 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 Cr V systems simultaneously.

Signs of a Failing ABS Wheel Speed Sensor on the Honda Cr V

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

Passive vs. Active ABS Sensors for the Honda Cr V

GeoBrakes stocks both passive and active ABS wheel speed sensors for the Honda Cr V. Passive sensors use an analog signal and are found on older Cr V 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 Honda Cr V vehicles manufactured after the mid-2000s and are required for full compatibility with modern Cr V traction and stability control systems.

Why GeoBrakes for the Honda Cr V ABS Wheel Speed Sensor

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

Frequently Asked Questions - Honda Cr V ABS Wheel Speed Sensor

Can I drive my Honda Cr V with a faulty ABS wheel speed sensor?

You can drive the Honda Cr V with a failed ABS sensor, but the anti-lock braking system on your Cr V 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 Honda Cr V. Replacing a failed sensor promptly is strongly recommended, particularly before winter.

How do I find the right ABS sensor for my Honda Cr V?

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

Do I need to replace all four ABS sensors on my Honda Cr V at the same time?

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