DTC 44

DTC 41, 42, 43, 44: Wheel Lock
1. Clear the DTC using the HDS.
2. Disconnect the HDS from the 16P DLC.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF, then turn it ON (II) again.
4. Check for brake drag: Test-drive the vehicle using the brakes often, lift the vehicle up on the hoist, and rotate all four wheels by hand.
Do the brakes drag?
YES - Repair the brake drag.
NO - Go to step 5.





5. Check the installation of the appropriate wheel sensor, and check the pulser or magnetic encoder for damage, debris, or excessive air gap.
Is the encoder or pulser OK?
YES - If the DTC does not reappear, the most probable cause for the DTC is that the vehicle might have lost traction in poor weather and spun around.
NO - Reinstall or replace the wheel sensor.
