2. Insert sensor wire through support plate hole. Then seat sensor grommet in support plate.
3. Apply Mopar Lock N' Seal or Loctite 242 to original sensor bolt. Use new bolt if original is worn or damaged.
4. Install sensor bolt finger tight only at this time.





5. If original rear sensor was installed, adjust sensor air gap to 0.28 - 1.5 mm (0.011 - 0.059 inch). Use feeler gauge to measure air gap. Tighten sensor bolt to 12 - 14 Nm (106 - 124 inch lbs.).





6. If new sensor was installed, push cardboard spacer on sensor face against tone ring. Then tighten sensor bolt to 12 - 14 Nm (106 - 124 inch lbs.). Correct air gap will be established as tone ring rotates and peels spacer off sensor face.
