Mercedes Sprinter Front ABS Wheel Speed Sensor – GST | VS30 AWD / 4WD | #2479050000 (2019+)

A failed front ABS wheel speed sensor on a VS30 Sprinter AWD model disables the ABS, traction control, and stability control systems on the affected corner — illuminating multiple warning lights and removing the electronic safety systems that prevent wheel lockup and loss of control under hard braking or in slippery conditions. This is the GST front ABS wheel speed sensor for VS30 Sprinters with AWD/4WD configuration, fitting both the left and right front positions.

What This Part Does

The front ABS wheel speed sensor mounts at the front wheel hub and reads the teeth of the rotating reluctor ring, generating a digital signal proportional to wheel speed. The ABS control module uses this signal from all four corners to detect wheel lockup during braking and modulate brake pressure accordingly. On AWD Sprinters, the front sensors also feed the traction control and stability control systems. When the sensor fails, the module loses its speed reference for that corner and disables the related safety systems as a precaution.

Common Symptoms of a Failing Front ABS Sensor

• ABS, traction control, and ESP/stability warning lights illuminated simultaneously
• ABS fault codes for a specific front wheel circuit on scan tool
• ABS activating during normal stops where it should not
• No ABS activation during hard braking where it should activate

When to Replace

Replace when confirmed faulty by scan tool. Fits both left and right front positions — one part number covers both sides on the AWD/4WD front axle.
