Contamination of the rear speed sensor will disable the ABS and Traction/Stability Control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Not sure if we are identifying the correct gromets. The speed sensor is in the axle bearing.
.
The speed sensor trigger is in the bearing ....
The speed sensor itself is bolted to the bottom of and passes through the swing-arm .....
The swing-arm is hollow so "contaminants" entering through the holes left by not installing the grommets at the front of the swing-arm will travel through its entirety settling in the low spots .....like where the sensor is installed .....
