General Information

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-sensor type.

DTC Description

The ABS ECU monitors the wheel speed sensor circuit continuously.
If the sensor signal current is continuously out of the specified range for 140 msec, then the HECU determines that the circuit is open/short and sets this code.
Warning lamp is turned OFF unless additional faults are detected when the IG KEY is turned ON again and wheel speed is more than 10 Km/h.
