Toyota Sequoia ABS Wheel Speed Sensor in US

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

What Is the ABS Wheel Speed Sensor on Your Toyota Sequoia

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

Signs of a Failing ABS Wheel Speed Sensor on the Toyota Sequoia

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

Passive vs. Active ABS Sensors for the Toyota Sequoia

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

Why GeoBrakes for the Toyota Sequoia ABS Wheel Speed Sensor

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

Frequently Asked Questions - Toyota Sequoia ABS Wheel Speed Sensor

Can I drive my Toyota Sequoia with a faulty ABS wheel speed sensor?

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

How do I find the right ABS sensor for my Toyota Sequoia?

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

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

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