General Description

The wheel speed sensor is the essential component the ABS ECU uses to calculate vehicle speed and to determine whether wheel lock occurs.
For example, rear wheel speed signal is used as a reference value, for vehicle speed, in front wheel drive vehicles, and if a difference between front and rear wheel speed occurs, then ABS control is performed.
Wheel speed sensor is active hall-sensor type and good at temperature and noise characteristic. Digital wave is produced as tone wheel rotate according as hall sensor principle.
Frequency of duty wave is changed in proportion to rotation of tone wheel and HECU calculate vehicle speed by this frequency.

DTC Description

The ABS ECU monitors the wheel speed sensor signal continuously.
This code is set, if there is current flow into wheel speed sensor input amplifier or the ABS control cycle is continued abnormally.
