Mercedes Sprinter Rear ABS Wheel Speed Sensor – ATE | VS30 3500 / 3500XD / 4500 | #9079050300 (2019–2024)

The MB Parts Center confirms 9079050300 as the ABS sensor fitting 2019–2024 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500, 3500XD, and 4500 van. The "ATE" SKU suffix confirms ATE as the manufacturer, and the listing confirms it fits both left and right rear positions — the sensor is symmetrical and not side-specific.

Mercedes Sprinter Rear ABS Wheel Speed Sensor – ATE | VS30 3500 / 3500XD / 4500 | #9079050300 (2019–2024)

A failed rear ABS wheel speed sensor on a VS30 Sprinter disables the anti-lock braking system on the affected wheel — illuminating the ABS warning light, disabling traction control and stability control, and removing the wheel lockup protection that's most critical when stopping a fully loaded commercial van in wet or emergency conditions. This is the ATE rear ABS wheel speed sensor for VS30 Sprinter 3500, 3500XD, and 4500 models, fitting both the left and right rear positions, a direct OEM-equivalent replacement that restores accurate wheel speed measurement and full ABS system function.

What This Part Does

The rear ABS wheel speed sensor is a Hall-effect sensor mounted at the rear axle that reads the teeth of a reluctor ring rotating with the wheel hub, generating a digital signal pulse train proportional to wheel rotational speed. The ABS control module monitors this signal continuously — when one wheel begins decelerating faster than the others during a hard stop, indicating impending lockup, the module modulates brake pressure on that wheel to maintain rolling traction. The same signal is also used by the traction control system (TCS) and electronic stability program (ESP) to detect wheel slip during acceleration and cornering. When the sensor's Hall-effect element fails, its wiring corrodes at the connector, or the sensor body physically cracks from road impact, the ABS module loses its speed reference for that wheel and disables the entire ABS/TCS/ESP system as a safety measure.

Common Symptoms of a Failing Rear ABS Wheel Speed Sensor

• ABS warning light illuminated in the instrument cluster
• Traction control (TCS) and stability control (ESP) warning lights on simultaneously with the ABS light
• ABS fault codes stored in the control module pointing to a specific rear wheel circuit
• ABS activating during normal stops that don't require it — a sign of erratic sensor output
• No ABS activation during hard stops where it should activate

When to Replace

Replace when the sensor is confirmed faulty by scan tool with active ABS wheel speed sensor fault codes on the rear circuit, after ruling out the reluctor ring and wiring harness as the fault source. The rear sensor fits both left and right rear positions — one part number covers both sides.
