Front ABS Wheel Speed Sensor for Ford F-150 2005-2008 & Lincoln Mark LT 2006-2008 | Replaces 5L3Z-2C204-A 7L3Z-2C204-AA | Driver or Passenger Side

Fix the ABS warning light on your 2005–2008 F-150 without a dealer visit. This front ABS wheel speed sensor is a direct-fit replacement for the OE sensor on 2005–2008 Ford F-150 and 2006–2008 Lincoln Mark LT trucks — same mounting, same 2-pin connector, same signal. No cutting, no splicing, no programming.

Position: Front — fits either the driver or passenger side (both front corners use this same sensor).

Drivetrain: Fits 4WD (four-wheel drive) models only — this sensor will NOT fit 2WD trucks. For 2005 models, fits trucks built from 01/03/2005 onward. Not sure which sensor your truck uses? Message us your VIN and we'll verify before you order.

Key Features

• Direct OE replacement — factory-style 2-pin connector, plug and play
• Includes the wiring harness (the most common failure point on the original part)
• Active Hall-effect design for a clean signal at all speeds
• Sealed against road salt, mud, water and brake heat
• 100% function tested before shipping

Symptoms This Sensor Fixes

• ABS warning light staying on
• Traction control light on at the same time
• Front wheel speed sensor fault codes
• Speedometer reading erratically
• ABS kicking in at low speed, or failing to engage when it should

Installation (about 1 hour)

1. Loosen the lug nuts, raise and support the truck, remove the wheel.
2. Unplug the sensor connector and remove the mounting bolt (5mm Allen on most of these trucks).
3. Pull the old sensor out and clean the mounting hole and hub surface.
4. Install the new sensor, routing the harness exactly like the original.
5. Reconnect, refit the wheel, torque the lug nuts to 150 ft-lbs.
6. Drive a short distance — the ABS light should clear on its own.

Tip: on high-mileage trucks the old sensor can be tight with rust. Soak the bolt in penetrating oil first — and clean rust off the tone ring while you're in there to avoid false ABS trips.

Warranty

1-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Contact us for a replacement if the sensor fails within the warranty period.

FAQ

Do I need one sensor or two?
One per wheel. Many owners replace both front sensors at once since they wear at similar rates — see our front pair set for both sides.

Is this the driver side or passenger side?
Both — the front left and front right use the same sensor on these trucks. Order one per wheel you're replacing.

Will it fit my 2004 F-150?
No. This sensor fits the 2005–2008 (new body) F-150. Message us with your VIN and we'll confirm the right part.

Does it fit 2WD trucks?
No — this sensor fits 4WD models only. If your F-150 is 2WD, this is not the right part; message us your VIN and we'll point you to the correct sensor.

Do I need a scan tool after installing?
No. The ABS module re-learns the signal on the next drive. If the light stays on, clear the stored codes with a scanner.

Why did my original sensor fail?
Almost always corrosion or debris at the sensor tip, or a broken wire in the harness — which is why this replacement includes the full harness.
