ABS Speed Sensor – WHT 003 859A (OE)

Description

Product Description

The WHT003859A ABS Wheel Speed Sensor (OE) is a genuine‑spec replacement used on various Volkswagen and Audi models. Mounted at the wheel hub, it continuously monitors individual wheel rotation and sends a precise signal to the ABS/ESP control unit so systems such as anti‑lock braking, traction control, and stability control can function correctly in all driving conditions.

As the original sensor ages, it can fail due to internal electrical faults, moisture intrusion, or damage from road debris and corrosion. These issues often lead to ABS/ESP warning lights, disabled traction control, and cruise‑control problems. Replacing the faulty unit with this OE‑quality WHT003859A sensor restores accurate wheel‑speed feedback and factory‑level operation of the vehicle’s braking and stability systems.

Applications

Used on select Volkswagen and Audi models that specify wheel speed sensor part number WHT003859A (position may be front or rear, left or right, depending on application; confirm by catalog).

Always verify compatibility via VIN, by checking the original part number, and by confirming the correct wheel position (front/rear, left/right) before ordering.

Service Notes

• Inspect the sensor wiring harness and connector for corrosion, chafing, or other damage when replacing the sensor.
• Ensure the sensor mounting bore and the tone ring/reluctor wheel are clean and free of rust or debris.
• Clear stored ABS/ESP fault codes after installation and road‑test the vehicle to confirm proper system operation.
