Mechanical fault
Checking the wheel sensor and pulse wheel
- Ignition off
- Remove the wheel for better access.
Check that the relevant wheel sensor is mounted tightly against the shaft or hub. Check that there is no dirt between the sensor and mating surface.
Check that the magnetic pulse wheel is correctly secured and free of damage, scratches (for example scratches, deformation).
Remedy as necessary.

Was a fault detected?
Yes - Verification
No - Checking the connectors and cables
-------------------------------------------------
Checking the connectors and cables
Check the connectors on the brake control module (BCM) and the relevant wheel sensor. Check for contact resistance. Check for oxidation.
Check the connectors and wiring insulation for damage.
Check that the wheel sensor cables are not too close to sources of interference.
Remedy as necessary.

Hint: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.
- Ignition off
- Reinstall the components, connectors, etc.
- Ignition on
- Test drive the car according to: Test Drive Form (DSTC (dynamic stability and traction control) /brake control module), description Test Drive Form (DSTC (Dynamic Stability and Traction Control) /Brake Control Module), Description
Check the ABS warning lamp during the test drive.
If the fault has been remedied the lamp will go out when the speed exceeds 20 km/h.
If the warning lamp does not go out, return to the workshop and read off the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).
Does the ABS warning lamp go out and remain unlit?
Yes - VERIFIED
No - VERIFICATION FAILED

Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.
Do you want to exit fault-tracing?
Yes - Exit fault-tracing
No - Attempt New Test
