General Description

The wheel speed sensor is the essential component the ABS ECU uses to calculate vehicle speed and to determine whether wheel lock occurs.
For example, rear wheel speed signal is used as a reference value, for vehicle speed, in front wheel drive vehicles, and if a difference between front and rear wheel speed occurs, then ABS control is performed.
Wheel speed sensor is active hall IC sensor type and good at temperature and noise characteristic. Digital waveform is produced as tone wheel rotate according as hall sensor principle.
Frequency of duty waveform is changed in proportion to speed of the rotation of tone wheel and HECU calculate vehicle speed by this frequency.

DTC Description

The ABS ECU monitors the wheel speed sensor signal continuously.
If power supply of the WSS input amplifier is not normal or the ABS control cycle is continued abnormally, if the exact fault location among 4 WSS can not be determined, This coed is set.
