Wheel Speed Sensor Guard for 2023+ AWD Mercedes Sprinter by Agile Offroad

Installation Manual

The Agile Offroad Wheel Speed Sensor Guard offers protection for the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter’s wheel speed sensor, also known as the ABS sensor. The Wheel Speed Sensor is a mechanism that records wheel speed and interacts with the Sprinter’s anti-lock braking system (ABS). Due to its location, directly in front of the hub, this mechanism is highly susceptible to damage from rocks, brush and debris encountered while driving off-road. In cold weather climates, snow and ice builds up in this location and is a common cause for broken Wheel Speed Sensor/ABS Sensor wire. Our Sprinter Wheel Speed Sensor Guard / ABS Sensor Guard is made from 6061 anodized aluminum and will provide support from ice build-up and protection from whatever gets thrown at it!
