Fig. 19 Code B1382: Wheel Sensor Rear Left, Signal Faulty Open Circuit (Part 2 Of 2):




Fault symptom
ABS warning lamp on, no ABS function.

Condition
Fault registered as open circuit.

Diagnostic help
The rear left wheel sensor can be read by ISAT.
- Select "READ FUNCTIONS"
- Select "WHEEL SPEEDS"

The current wheel speed in km/h is displayed.
- If the rear assembly of the vehicle is lifted the ISAT should display approx. 5 km/h if the left rear wheel is rotated by hand at approx. 1 turn per second.

Diagnostic procedure
1 Wheel sensor resistance check
- Disconnect the electronic control module connector.
- Take a resistance reading at the electronic control module sensor connector between pin 8 and pin 9. The resistance should be 0.8-1.7 kOhm.

Is the resistance rating correct?
YES - Continue with point 3.
NO - Continue with point 2.

2 Wheel sensor resistance check cont.
- Remove the wheel sensor connector. The connector is integrated into the wheel sensor, against the wheel bearing rear side.
- Take a resistance reading at the wheel sensor switch between two connector pins. The resistance should be 0.8-1.7 kOhm.

Is the resistance rating correct?
YES - Check and rectify the wiring including the connection between the electronic control module and the wheel sensor.
NO - Inspect the wheel sensor connector for damp and corrosion. If there is no obvious fault cause change the wheel sensor.

3 Final inspection
- Erase the diagnostic trouble code.
- Carry out the driving cycle, drive the car with various load and engine speeds for 5 minutes.
- Read the diagnostic trouble code.

Is the diagnostic trouble code stored?
YES - Continue with "Test Procedure Prior To Replacing ECM"
No - The diagnostic procedure taken is right.
