Front sensor rotors
Removal
1. Jack up the car and place it on supports.
2. Remove the appropriate wheel.
3. Remove the wheel sensor and, without disconnecting the electrical wiring from it, tie it to the side to the suspension elements (do not forget to release the electrical wiring from the intermediate clamps).
Caution! Do not allow the protruding sensitive sensor to come into contact with the rotor teeth!
4. Remove the front hub assembly with the steering knuckle.
5. Remove the hub from the steering knuckle.
6. Clamp the hub in a vice with soft jaws, unscrew the mounting bolts and remove the wheel sensor rotor from the assembly.
Installation
1. Install the new rotor onto the hub assembly. Screw in the mounting bolts and tighten them to the required torque (10 Nm).
2. Install the hub onto the steering knuckle.
3. Install the steering knuckle assembly with the hub in its regular place.
4. Install the wheel sensor.
5. Install the wheel.
6. Lower the car to the ground.
Rear sensor rotors
All models except AWD Galant
Removal
1. Jack up the car and place it on supports.
2. Remove the appropriate wheel.
3. Remove the wheel sensor and, without disconnecting the electrical wiring from it, tie it to the side to the suspension elements (do not forget to release the electrical wiring from the intermediate clamps).
Caution! Do not allow the protruding sensitive sensor to come into contact with the rotor teeth!
4. Remove the hub assembly.
5. Clamp the hub in a vice with soft jaws, unscrew the mounting bolts and remove the wheel sensor rotor from the assembly.
Installation
1. Install the new rotor onto the hub assembly. Screw in the mounting bolts and tighten them to the required torque (10 Nm).
2. Install the hub assembly in its regular place and secure it with the central nut, tightening the latter with the required force (200÷260 N·m). Align the nut with the seat mark and lock it.
3. Install the wheel sensor.
4. Install the wheel.
5. Lower the vehicle to the ground.
Galant AWD Models
Removal
1. Jack up the car and place it on supports.
2. Remove the appropriate wheel.
3. Disconnect the parking brake cable from the caliper.
4. Remove the wheel sensor assembly with the sealing ring and, without disconnecting the electrical wiring from it, tie it to the side to the suspension elements (do not forget to release the electrical wiring from the intermediate clamps).
Caution! Do not allow the protruding sensitive sensor to come into contact with the rotor teeth!
5. Remove the brake caliper and disc.
6. Loosen the three bolt pairs securing the outer end of the drive shaft to the connecting flange.
7. Move the shaft to the side and tie it with wire.
8. Loosen the fastening nut on the rear end of the cardan shaft, remove the washer. Block the hub from turning using the special tool MB9g67.
9. Remove the connecting flange from the steering knuckle assembly.
10. Using a puller bolted to the wheel studs, remove the axle shaft assembly.
11. Install the drive shaft on the press (MB9e60), firmly pressing the rotor gear against the thrust plate.
12. Using the press, remove the rotor.
Installation
1. Press the rotor onto the axle shaft (groove towards the flange).
2. Insert the drive shaft into the steering knuckle and install the connecting flange in place.
37 Install the lock washer and screw the new hub nut onto the shaft journal. Tighten the nut to the required torque (160÷220 Nm).
3. Turn the shaft to its normal position and secure it with bolt pairs, tightening the nuts of the latter with the required force (61 Nm).
4. Install the brake disc and caliper.
5. Install the wheel sensor - do not forget to replace the sealing ring.
6. Connect the parking brake cable to the caliper.
7. Install the wheel and lower the car to the ground.
