The Murano Z50 does NOT have air suspension; the description should specifically identify the part as an ABS / VDC wheel speed sensor. Verify component identity by cross-referencing aftermarket equivalent numbers (ALS790, 0844387, 084-4387, ABS3469RL, 2ABS0578, SU12669, 5S11218) &#8212; all consistently identify the 47901CA00A as a rear left ABS wheel speed sensor.</div> </div> <div class="qf-faq-item"> <div class="qf-faq-q"><span class="qf-faq-q-icon">Q</span>What's the difference between 47900CA00A, 47901CA00A, 47910CA000, 47911CA000 on Murano Z50?</div> <div class="qf-faq-a">These are four distinct ABS wheel speed sensors covering the four wheel positions on the Murano Z50: <strong>47900CA00A</strong> = rear right (passenger side); <strong>47901CA00A</strong> = rear left (driver side, THIS unit); <strong>47910CA000</strong> = front left (driver side); <strong>47911CA000</strong> = front right (passenger side). Wiring harness length and connector orientation differ between positions; ordering wrong position sensor will not fit due to routing geometry constraints. <strong>Always identify the failing wheel position</strong> with CONSULT-III diagnostic scan before ordering &#8212; ABS DTCs identify which wheel sensor is faulty.</div> </div> <div class="qf-faq-item"> <div class="qf-faq-q"><span class="qf-faq-q-icon">Q</span>Does the new sensor require calibration or relearn procedure?</div> <div class="qf-faq-a"><strong>No.</strong> ABS wheel speed sensors are direct plug-and-play replacements &#8212; no calibration or relearn procedure required. The ABS ECU automatically detects valid pulse signal at the next ignition cycle and clears stored fault codes during the next drive cycle (typically 5-10 km of driving with ABS-active conditions). <strong>Optional</strong>: use Nissan CONSULT-III or generic OBD-II with ABS module access to manually clear stored DTCs immediately after replacement; otherwise ABS warning light typically extinguishes on own within 1-2 drive cycles.</div> </div> <div class="qf-faq-item"> <div class="qf-faq-q"><span class="qf-faq-q-icon">Q</span>Should I replace the wheel bearing if ABS sensor failure was caused by tone ring damage?</div> <div class="qf-faq-a">Possibly. The Murano Z50's rear wheel bearings use an integrated tone ring on the inner race &#8212; the magnetic encoder ring is part of the bearing assembly. If the failure is caused by tone ring rust damage, debris embedded in teeth, or physical impact damage to the ring, <strong>cleaning the ring</strong> may restore function. However, if ring damage cannot be cleaned (deformed teeth, missing magnetic encoding, internal bearing wear allowing axial play), <strong>the full wheel bearing / hub assembly</strong> must be replaced (Nissan rear wheel bearing reference varies by Murano Z50 trim level and AWD vs FWD configuration &#8212; consult parts catalogue for specific reference). Replacing only the sensor when the tone ring is damaged will produce the same fault returning after a short period.</div> </div> <div class="qf-faq-item"> <div class="qf-faq-q"><span class="qf-faq-q-icon">Q</span>Is white-label or custom packaging available for Nissan specialist distributors?</div> <div class="qf-faq-a">Yes. ok.parts sources directly from manufacturing facility. White-label packaging with vehicle and position label (Nissan Murano Z50 2003-2007, rear left ABS wheel speed sensor) available for wholesale distribution &#8212; suited to Nissan / Infiniti specialist shops, brake / suspension service centres, and automotive electrical / ABS specialist distributors. Mixed SKU consolidation with matching front sensors (47910CA000 / 47911CA000), rear right sensor (47900CA00A), wheel bearing assemblies, and ABS hardware accessories supported.
