Default front abs sensor
I want to replace the front brake rotors and I'm concerned about messing with the front abs sensor since I will have to remove the wheel. Will also change the brake pads since putting on new rotors. Are there any precautions as to the front abs sensor or anything else in replacing the rotors.

Thanks

Pretty straight forward and simple.......follow the service manual and you should be fine.
