Normal Operation

The wheel speed sensor and sensor ring generates a square wave current signal to the ABS module that is proportional to the wheel speed. The ABS module compares the wheel speed inputs from all the wheel speed sensors to determine an impending wheel lockup. Incorrect/mismatched tire size can set these DTCs as well.

DTC DESCRIPTION

DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
  • C1222 Wheel Speed Mismatch
When the vehicle speed exceeds 20 km/h (12 mph), if the ABS module detects a difference between wheel speed sensor signals, DTC C1222 will be set. DTC C1222 can also be set by damaged tone rings, mismatched wheel and/or tire sizes or driving the vehicle on one or more deflated tires.
  • C1296 LF Wheel Speed Sensor Signal Fault
  • C1297 RF Wheel Speed Sensor Signal Fault
  • C1298 RR Wheel Speed Sensor Signal Fault
  • C1299 LR Wheel Speed Sensor Signal Fault
When the vehicle speed exceeds 20 km/h (12 mph), if the ABS module does not receive a signal from the wheel speed sensor, the appropriate DTC will be set. These DTCs can also be set by an excessive wheel speed sensor-to-tone ring air gap or a damaged tone ring.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
