Infiniti Q70l ABS Wheel Speed Sensor in US

Your Infiniti Q70l ABS wheel speed sensor is the component that makes anti-lock braking possible on your Q70l. It monitors the rotational speed of each wheel in real time and sends that data to the Infiniti Q70l ABS control module, which uses it to prevent wheel lockup during emergency stops. When a sensor fails on your Q70l, 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 Infiniti Q70l wheel speed data is reaching the module.

What Is the ABS Wheel Speed Sensor on Your Infiniti Q70l

The ABS wheel speed sensor on the Infiniti Q70l is an electromagnetic or Hall-effect sensor mounted near each wheel hub or bearing assembly of your Q70l. It generates an electronic signal as a toothed reluctor ring rotates past it, producing a frequency the Q70l ABS module interprets as wheel speed. On most modern Infiniti Q70l 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 Q70l systems simultaneously.

Signs of a Failing ABS Wheel Speed Sensor on the Infiniti Q70l

• ABS warning light on your Infiniti Q70l dashboard, the most common first indicator of a failing sensor
• Traction control or stability control warning light illuminated alongside the Q70l ABS light
• ABS activating on your Infiniti Q70l during normal stops at low speed where it should not engage
• Complete ABS deactivation on the Q70l, wheels lock under hard braking on wet or icy roads
• Speedometer on your Infiniti Q70l reading erratically or dropping to zero at speed
• Fault codes in the C0035 to C0050 range stored in the Infiniti Q70l ABS control module

Passive vs. Active ABS Sensors for the Infiniti Q70l

GeoBrakes stocks both passive and active ABS wheel speed sensors for the Infiniti Q70l. Passive sensors use an analog signal and are found on older Q70l 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 Infiniti Q70l vehicles manufactured after the mid-2000s and are required for full compatibility with modern Q70l traction and stability control systems.

Why GeoBrakes for the Infiniti Q70l ABS Wheel Speed Sensor

Signal accuracy matters as much as fitment with Infiniti Q70l wheel speed sensors. A sensor that generates the correct frequency for your Q70l ABS module ensures consistent ABS calibration, proper traction control thresholds, and accurate stability control response on your Infiniti Q70l. Every sensor in the GeoBrakes catalogue is matched to the Infiniti Q70l through our vehicle selector, with front and rear positions listed separately to eliminate position errors on your Q70l.

Frequently Asked Questions - Infiniti Q70l ABS Wheel Speed Sensor

Can I drive my Infiniti Q70l with a faulty ABS wheel speed sensor?

You can drive the Infiniti Q70l with a failed ABS sensor, but the anti-lock braking system on your Q70l 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 Infiniti Q70l. Replacing a failed sensor promptly is strongly recommended, particularly before winter.

How do I find the right ABS sensor for my Infiniti Q70l?

Use the GeoBrakes vehicle selector and enter the Infiniti Q70l year, make, and model. The system displays only the sensors confirmed to fit the Infiniti Q70l, with front and rear positions listed separately. Select the position matching the sensor you are replacing on your Q70l to avoid receiving the wrong unit.

Do I need to replace all four ABS sensors on my Infiniti Q70l at the same time?

No. ABS wheel speed sensors on the Infiniti Q70l are independent components and only the failed unit needs to be replaced. However, if your Q70l has high mileage and one sensor has failed, it is worth visually inspecting the connectors on the other Infiniti Q70l sensors for corrosion while the wheel is removed.
