Component

Condition

DTC Symptom Bytes

Wheel Speed Sensor

    • Physical damage
    • Debris on the wheel speed sensor or the tone ring
    • Loose or worn wheel bearing
    • Loose or improperly mounted sensor
    • Air gap between the wheel speed sensor and the tone ring too large
    • Water intrusion in the wiring harness

26, 27, 1F

Circuit/System Description

The wheel speed sensor receives ignition voltage from the electronic brake control module and provides a DC square wave signal back to the module. As the wheel spins, the electronic brake control module uses the frequency of the square wave signal to calculate the wheel speed.

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • Vehicle On or Vehicle in Service Mode
    • Ignition voltage is greater than 10 V.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

C0035 04 - C0050 04 or C1232 00 - C1235 00

    • An open or a high resistance is detected on a wheel speed sensor ignition circuit.
    • A short to ground or an open/high resistance is detected on a wheel speed sensor signal circuit.

C0035 0E - C0050 0E or C1207 00 - C1210 00

    • A short to ground is detected on a wheel speed sensor ignition circuit.
    • A short to voltage is detected on a wheel speed sensor signal circuit.

C0035 26 - C0050 26, C0035 27 - C0050 27, C0035 1F - C0050 1F, C1221 00 - C1224 00, or C1225 00 - C1228 00

    • Incorrectly mounted wheel speed sensor
    • Water intrusion in the wiring harness
    • Debris on the wheel speed sensor or the tone ring
    • Missing tooth or teeth on the wheel speed sensor tone ring
    • The tone ring may be demagnetised
    • Air gap between the wheel speed sensor and the tone ring too large
    • Electrical magnetic interference with the wheel speed sensor harness

Actions Taken when the DTC Sets

    • The ABS indicator turns ON.
    • The traction control/stability control indicator turns ON.
    • The Service Brake Assist and Service StabiliTrak messages are displayed on the driver information centre.
    • The electronic brake control module disables the antilock brake system, he traction control system and the electronic stability program for the duration of the drive cycle.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • The condition for setting the DTC is no longer present.
    • The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive fault-free drive cycles have occurred.

Diagnostic Aids

    • Do not use a magnet to clean the tone ring.
    • Inspect the wheel hub bearing tone ring for rust or corrosion.
    • If two or more wheel speed sensors are inoperative, diagnose each wheel speed sensor individually.
    • If the customer comments that the ABS indicator is ON only during moist environmental conditions (rain, snow, vehicle wash, etc.), inspect the wheel speed sensor wiring for signs of water intrusion.

Circuit/System Verification

  1. Test drive the vehicle in a straight line at a speed greater than 20 km/h (13 mph).
  2. Verify all scan tool Wheel Speed Sensor parameters are within 1.6 km/h (1 mph) of each other.
  3. If any parameter is not within 1.6 km/h (1 mph) of each other
        Refer to Circuit/System Testing.
    ⇓   If each parameter is within 1.6 km/h (1 mph) of each other
  4. All OK.

Circuit/System Testing

Note: If any of the symptom codes 26, 27, or 1F are set, refer to the Diagnostic Fault Information table for possible mechanical faults or conditions.

  1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate B5 wheel speed sensor, vehicle in service mode.
  2. Test for greater than 11 V between the ignition circuit terminal 1 and ground.
  3. If 11 V or less
    2.1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K17 electronic brake control module.
    2.2. Test for infinite resistance between the ignition circuit and ground.
    ⇒     If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
    ⇓     If infinite resistance
    2.3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ignition circuit end to end.
    ⇒     If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
    ⇒     If less than 2 Ω, replace the K17 electronic brake control module.
    ⇓   If greater than 11 V
  4. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire at the ignition circuit terminal 1, vehicle in service mode.
  5. Verify the scan tool Wheel Speed Sensor parameter changes while rapidly tapping the fused jumper wire to the signal circuit terminal 2.
  6. If the parameter does not change
    4.1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K17 electronic brake control module, vehicle in service mode.
    4.2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.
    ⇒     If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
    ⇓     If less than 1 V
    4.3. Vehicle OFF.
    4.4. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
    ⇒     If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
    ⇓     If infinite resistance
    4.5. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
    ⇒     If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
    ⇒     If less than 2 Ω, replace the K17 electronic brake control module.
    ⇓   If the parameter changes
  7. Replace the B5 wheel speed sensor.
