You can't purchase them new any longer. There is no drop in replacement other than used parts as mentioned above. If you want to get creative any passive sensor will work if you can get it to fit. The G-van is a similar size and design.

Likely the sensor you are finding is for 3 channel ABS.

Yes you have 4 channel ABS. You can check the resistance of that sensor if you have a meter. I know that mine measured about 3k ohm. If the light is on immediately from key up then either the wiring is messed up or the sensor. If it comes on when driving then the sensor could be dirty or some other trouble with the controller.

Certainly possible, you should have the code read and then you will know which sensor or error that it has. Those are built into the wheel bearing.

Those sensors from Hawks are also used, likely salvage parts. You need to get your car scanned to find out what the fault is. The ABS module you can google places that repair them. They may have serviced ones in stock to exchange.

Happy to provide the link. Hawk's should have those salvaged as well but you'll probably need to call and provide exact details.

Like the others mentioned probably want to scan for codes because loading the parts cannon for swapping parts will get expensive quick these days.

So my 02 firehawk with 24k on odo after I hit a large bump on the road the dash ligh kicked on abs inop and traction control light is on I had my car scanned at my job and came up with this right rear or any speed sensor circuit fault code c0050 which is stored but before that i had disconnected my battery at home and by the time i got to work the light was off my dash. So sunday was driving went over some tracks going to cars and coffee and bam light is back on dash. Its a 4 channel found wheel rear sensor one used for $150 do you think its that or just needs be cleaned?
