First jack up the front (whichever side your going for) and take off the wheel. If you look behind the top of the hub you'll see a bracket shield with a raise center section at the base. Normally you would want to unbolt this shield, but that isn't necessary and can be very hard to do. The shield is thin enough that you can bend it enough to get to the sensor. The raised area at the base of the shield covers the sensor. With the shield bent back slightly unscrew the sensor. Be careful to not get any debris in the hole the sensor came out of. Grease the O-ring that came with the new sensor and screw the new one in the hole. The old sensor should be hanging freely from it's cable that is still attached. Trace the cable on the old sensor to find the connector. You may need to pop a few of the plastic screws out of the rubber wheel well cover to make room for you to trace the cable. Remove the old cable from the connector and insert the new one.
