Your Volvo V40 ABS wheel speed sensor is the component that makes anti-lock braking possible on your V40. It monitors the rotational speed of each wheel in real time and sends that data to the Volvo V40 ABS control module, which uses it to prevent wheel lockup during emergency stops. When a sensor fails on your V40, 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 Volvo V40 wheel speed data is reaching the module.
The ABS wheel speed sensor on the Volvo V40 is an electromagnetic or Hall-effect sensor mounted near each wheel hub or bearing assembly of your V40. It generates an electronic signal as a toothed reluctor ring rotates past it, producing a frequency the V40 ABS module interprets as wheel speed. On most modern Volvo V40 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 V40 systems simultaneously.
GeoBrakes stocks both passive and active ABS wheel speed sensors for the Volvo V40. Passive sensors use an analog signal and are found on older V40 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 Volvo V40 vehicles manufactured after the mid-2000s and are required for full compatibility with modern V40 traction and stability control systems.
Signal accuracy matters as much as fitment with Volvo V40 wheel speed sensors. A sensor that generates the correct frequency for your V40 ABS module ensures consistent ABS calibration, proper traction control thresholds, and accurate stability control response on your Volvo V40. Every sensor in the GeoBrakes catalogue is matched to the Volvo V40 through our vehicle selector, with front and rear positions listed separately to eliminate position errors on your V40.
Can I drive my Volvo V40 with a faulty ABS wheel speed sensor?
You can drive the Volvo V40 with a failed ABS sensor, but the anti-lock braking system on your V40 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 Volvo V40. Replacing a failed sensor promptly is strongly recommended, particularly before winter.
How do I find the right ABS sensor for my Volvo V40?
Use the GeoBrakes vehicle selector and enter the Volvo V40 year, make, and model. The system displays only the sensors confirmed to fit the Volvo V40, with front and rear positions listed separately. Select the position matching the sensor you are replacing on your V40 to avoid receiving the wrong unit.
Do I need to replace all four ABS sensors on my Volvo V40 at the same time?
No. ABS wheel speed sensors on the Volvo V40 are independent components and only the failed unit needs to be replaced. However, if your V40 has high mileage and one sensor has failed, it is worth visually inspecting the connectors on the other Volvo V40 sensors for corrosion while the wheel is removed.
