Checking the power supply 

Check the signal cable between control module

and terminal #1 on the relevant sensor. Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage.

Checking the signal cable 

Check the signal cable between control module

and terminal #2 on the relevant sensor. Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage.

Checking the function of the sensor 

Check the sensor. Ensure that the breakout box is connected, the sensor is connected and the ignition is on. Measure the signal from the sensor. Connect a voltmeter between:

on the breakout box. The voltage should vary by approximately 1 V when the pulse wheel is rotating. Replace the wheel sensor if the voltage is faulty.

HINT: Particularly check the wiring at the steering shaft. 

Remedy as necessary.
