Pinpoint Test 3: DTCs C1145, C1155, and C1230 Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit Failure

PINPOINT TEST 3: DTCS C1145, C1155, AND C1230 WHEEL SPEED SENSOR CIRCUIT FAILURE

Normal Operation
The wheel speed sensor and the wheel speed sensor ring generate a signal that is sent to the anti-lock (ABS) module. The wheel speed sensor circuitry connects to the ABS module connector through 2 wires and a connector at each wheel speed sensor. When the ignition is turned to the RUN position, the ABS module carries out a self-test by sending a reference voltage through the wheel speed sensors and their circuitry to determine if they are functional.

Possible Causes
^ Circuit open
^ Circuit shorted
^ Wheel speed sensor
^ ABS module

Caution:
^ Use the Flex Probe Kit for all test connections to prevent damage to the wiring terminals. Do not use standard multimeter probes.
