Bend the wire fastening tab and remove the sensor. Separate the rubber gasket from the sensor and replace it if it is defective. The sensor is installed in the reverse order of removal. After installation, check the gap between the flywheel and the sensor, which should be within 0.8-1.2 mm. If the gap is less than 0.4 mm, install adjusting washers.

To replace the wire tips, disconnect them from the spark plugs, unscrew them and screw new blue tips onto the wires.
