An essential element of the advanced steering system – a proximity (inductive) sensor for the 4-wheel steer (4WS) system. It is a precision component responsible for detecting the position of the wheels or axle, allowing for the correct operation and switching between steering modes (e.g., 2WS, 4WS, crab steer). A faulty sensor prevents the system from working correctly, which can lead to a loss of maneuverability or dangerous situations on the road.

The list above is for reference. Before purchasing, we recommend verifying the part number in the parts catalogue for your machine.
Working on the steering system requires lifting and securing the machine. Always use certified axle stands with an appropriate load capacity. Never rely solely on the machine's hydraulics or a jack.
The wheel proximity sensor is the brain of the 4WS system. Its failure means the computer does not receive information about the position of the wheels, which prevents safe mode switching and can lead to uncontrolled machine behavior when driving.
A faulty 4WS system limits capabilities and risks accidents.
Don't give up the full maneuverability and precision of the 4-wheel steer system. The cost of a new sensor is negligible compared to the potential losses from an accident or downtime. Invest in safety and full functionality – order a new GX-AFTER sensor and regain full control of your machine.

An inductive sensor generates an electromagnetic field at its face. When a metal object (e.g., a special tab on the axle) enters this field, the field is disturbed, and the sensor changes its output state (e.g., from open to closed), sending a signal to the machine's computer.
2. Can I drive with a faulty wheel steer sensor?It is very risky. The machine may remain in a mode that is not suitable for road travel (e.g., crab steer), which poses a huge risk. In the best-case scenario, the system will disable mode switching, limiting the machine's maneuverability.
3. My sensor looks fine, but it doesn't work. What should I check?First, check that the plug is correctly connected and not corroded. Then, ensure that the air gap between the sensor and the metal target is correct and clean. Sometimes the problem is not the sensor itself, but a damaged wire or a lack of power supply.
