DTC C050C-14: Left Rear Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit Short to Ground or Open [03/2023 - ]: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2025 Lexus NX 350h, 2024 Lexus NX 350h, 2023 Lexus NX 350h, and 2022 Lexus NX 350h. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. READ VALUE USING GTS (MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION) 
    1. Select the line graph display on the GTS.
    2. Check for any momentary interruption in the wire harness and connector.

      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [11/2021 - ] 

    Result: 

    NG 

    See step  2

  2. INSPECT NO. 2 PARKING BRAKE WIRE ASSEMBLY 
    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

      *a Front view of skid control sensor wire LH (No. 2 parking brake wire assembly)
      *b to Sensor Side Connector
      *c to Vehicle Side Connector
    2. Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.

      OK

      The connector is securely connected.

    3. Disconnect the f5 and fG3 skid control sensor wire LH (No. 2 parking brake wire assembly) connector.
    4. Check both the connector case and the terminals for deformation and corrosion.

      OK

      No deformation or corrosion.

    5. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      f5-1 (LA+) - fG3-4 (RL+) Always Below 1 Ω
      f5-1 (LA+) or fG3-4 (RL+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      f5-2 (LA-) - fG3-3 (RL-) Always Below 1 Ω
      f5-2 (LA-) or fG3-3 (RL-) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE NO. 2 PARKING BRAKE WIRE ASSEMBLY 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (NO. 2 PARKING BRAKE WIRE ASSEMBLY - BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.

      OK

      The connector is securely connected.

    2. Disconnect the A38 No. 2 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.
    3. Check both the connector case and the terminals for deformation and corrosion.

      OK

      No deformation or corrosion.

    4. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      fG3-4 (RL+) - A38-5 (RL+) Always Below 1 Ω
      fG3-4 (RL+) or A38-5 (RL+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      fG3-3 (RL-) - A38-4 (RL-) Always Below 1 Ω
      fG3-3 (RL-) or A38-4 (RL-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  4

  4. INSPECT BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY (SENSOR POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT) 
    1. Reconnect the A38 No. 2 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.
    2. Reconnect the fG3 skid control sensor wire LH (No. 2 parking brake wire assembly) connector.
    3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    4. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      f5-1 (LA+) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    REPLACE REAR SPEED SENSOR LH. Refer to  REMOVAL [11/2021 - 03/2024]  , or refer to  REMOVAL [03/2024 - ] 

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY. Refer to  REMOVAL [11/2021 - ]
