Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 16 other vehicles, including the 2018 Lincoln MKZ, 2018 Ford Transit-350 HD, 2018 Ford Transit-350, 2018 Ford Transit-250, and 2018 Ford Transit-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The wheel speed sensor and encoder (tone wheel) generate a square wave signal proportional to wheel speed and sends this information to the ABS module. The wheel bearing, encoder and wheel speed sensor must be undamaged and free from contamination to produce a clean signal for use by the ABS module. Also, all 4 tires and wheels must be of the same manufacturer recommended size for the wheel speed sensor to generate an accurate wheel speed.
