DTC 26 Left Front Toothed Wheel Frequency Error: Notes
Toothed wheel generates a voltage pulse as it moves past sensor. EBTCM/EBCM uses these pulses to determine wheel speed. EBTCM/EBCM uses wheel speed sensor signal to calculate vehicle reference speeds and speed, acceleration and slip values for each wheel. These values are used to determine when anti-lock control is needed.
EBTCM/EBCM will only set one wheel speed sensor DTC at a time, even if multiple faults exist. Detection is prioritized accordingly: LF, RR, LR and RF. Check for additional stored DTCs after making repairs.
NOTE:
Test numbers refer to numbers on diagnostic chart.
- Checks wiring and connection for problems.
- Use Tech 1 to monitor for vehicle electrical system noise picked up by speed sensor circuits.
- Use Tech 1 to monitor wheel speed sensors while vehicle is operating.
- Checks for correct resistance in sensor.
- Replaces front wheel speed sensor as probable cause of intermittent.
- Checks if DTC resets during test drive.
