A short to voltage, or an open is detected on 12-volt reference or the signal circuit.

C0035 0F-C0050 0F

* An erratic signal output of the wheel speed sensor is detected 3 times in 200 milliseconds.

* The EBCM detects a change in wheel speed that exceeds 20 km/h (12 mph) between two 10 millisecond wheel speed samples. This must be

detected 3 times in 200 milliseconds.

* A missing wheel speed sensor signal

Actions Taken when the DTC Sets

* The EBCM disables the antilock brake system (ABS) and StabiliTrak for the duration of the ignition cycle.

* The ABS indicator turns ON.

* The traction control off indicator turns ON.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* A current DTC clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.

* A history DTC clears after 100 consecutive ignition cycles, if no failures are reported.

Diagnostic Aids

* Inspect the back of the wheel bearing on the encoder surface for metal debris that could cause an erratic reading with the sensor. Do not use a

magnet to clean the debris, or damage to the encoder ring may occur.

* If 2 or more wheel speed sensors are inoperative diagnose each wheel speed sensor individually.

* An ECE 13 response may be required, after repairs are made, and DTCs are cleared, operate the vehicle at speeds greater than 15 km/h (10

mph) to complete the self test, and the EBCM will turn off the ABS indicator.

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. If the DTC is not current, clear all DTCs and simulate the effects of water intrusion by using

the following procedure:

1. Spray the suspected area with a 5 percent saltwater solution. To create a 5 percent saltwater solution, add 2 teaspoons of salt to 8 fl oz of

water (10 g of salt to 200 ml of water).

2. Test drive the vehicle over various road surfaces: bumps, turns, etc., above 40 km/h (25 mph) for at least 30 seconds.

3. Rinse the area thoroughly when completed.

Circuit/System Verification

Observe the scan tool Wheel Speed Sensor parameter. The reading should be the same speed on all sensors when driving in a straight line at a

speed greater than 20 km/h (13 mph).
