TPMS Procedures On Domestic Vehicles
From 2006-’09, Ford used banded sensors that are mounted in the center of the rim, 180º from the valve stem. In 2010, Ford reverted to the valve stem mounted sensors. Some replacement sensor suppliers have snap-in sensors that can eliminate the need for a banded sensor.
What Is An Import Car?

On-The-Car Brake Lathe Precautions On ABS Vehicles
All anti-lock-brake systems (ABS) utilize speed sensor inputs. Some of these systems have very narrow tolerances in regard to wheel speed data. Speed sensor concerns include the air gap that can easily be altered during the course of brake maintenance. When using an on-the-car brake lathe, it is important to prevent metal shavings from contacting, and collecting on, the sensor.
