Diagnostic Fault Information

Mechanical Fault Table

Circuit/System Description

The wheel speed sensor receives ignition voltage from the electronic brake control module (EBCM) and provides a DC square wave signal back to the module. As the wheel spins, the EBCM uses the frequency of the square wave signal to calculate the wheel speed.

Conditions for Running the DTC

C0035 00-C0050 00

• Ignition ON.
• Ignition voltage is greater than 9.5 V.

C0035 5A-C0050 5A

• Ignition ON.
• Ignition voltage is greater than 9.5 V.
• The brake pedal is not pressed.
• A DTC is not set for the other wheel speed sensor on the same axle.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

C0035 00-C0050 00

• A missing wheel speed sensor signal.
• Wheel speed sensor power supply is less than 7.6 V.
• A short to voltage, short to ground or an open/high resistance is detected on the signal circuit.
• A short to ground or an open/high resistance is detected on the wheel speed sensor 12 V reference circuit.

C0035 5A-C0050 5A

An erratic signal output of the wheel speed sensor is detected.

Actions Taken when the DTC Sets

• The ABS indicator illuminates.
• The Stability indicator illuminates.
• The EBCM disables the voltage to the wheel speed sensor the fault is detected on.
• The EBCM disables the ABS, the traction control system and the vehicle stability enhancement system for the duration of the ignition cycle.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

• The condition for the DTC is no longer present.
• The EBCM clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 40 consecutive drive cycles.

NOTE: During normal diagnostic and/or repair verification technicians may find that the ABS, Traction Control and/or Stability indicators may be ON with NO DTCs displayed by the EBCM. Do not replace the EBCM for this condition.

If the ABS, Traction Control and/or Stability indicators are ON with no DTCs set, perform the following steps:

1. Remove the key from the ignition, open and close the driver's door to turn off retained accessory power (RAP) and wait 60 seconds.

2. Ignition ON, if the ABS, Traction Control and/or Stability indicators are still illuminated, operate the vehicle at speeds greater than 16 km/h (10 MPH) to complete the self test. The EBCM should request all indicators to turn OFF.

3. If the indicators remain ON with no DTCs set after the drive cycle, disconnect the battery for at least 60 seconds then reconnect the battery.

4. Operate the vehicle at speeds greater than 40 km/h (25 MPH), the EBCM should request all indicators to turn OFF.

Diagnostic Aids

• Do not use a magnet to clean the encoder ring.
• Inspect the wheel hub bearing encoder ring for rust or corrosion.
• If two or more wheel speed sensors are inoperative, diagnose each wheel speed sensor individually.
• If any of the symptom codes 0F, 18 or 5A are set, refer to the Diagnostic Fault Information table for possible mechanical faults or conditions.
• If the customer comments that the ABS indicator is ON only during moist environmental conditions (rain, snow, vehicle wash, etc.), inspect the wheel speed sensor wiring for signs of water intrusion.

• The EBCM disables the traction control system and the vehicle stability enhancement system for the duration of the ignition cycle.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

• The condition for the DTC is no longer present.
• The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive fault-free drive cycles have occurred.

NOTE: During normal diagnostic and/or repair verification technicians may find that the ABS, Traction Control and/or Stability indicators may be ON with NO DTCs displayed by the EBCM. Do not replace the EBCM for this condition.

If the ABS, Traction Control and/or Stability indicators are ON with no DTCs set, perform the following steps:

1. Remove the key from the ignition, open and close the driver's door to turn off retained accessory power and wait 60 seconds.

2. Ignition ON, if the ABS, Traction Control and/or Stability indicators are still illuminated, operate the vehicle at speeds greater than 16 km/h (10 MPH) to complete the self test. The EBCM should request all indicators to turn OFF.

3. If the indicators remain ON with no DTCs set after the drive cycle, disconnect the battery for at least 60 seconds then reconnect the battery.

4. Operate the vehicle at speeds greater than 40 km/h (25 MPH), the EBCM should request all indicators to turn OFF.

Diagnostic Aids

• Faulty wheel speed sensor will not set this DTC.
• A vehicle using a space saver spare will not set this code.

Circuit/System Verification

Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Wheel Speed Sensor parameters while spinning the wheels. The readings should be analog to the wheel speeds.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Verify that all tires have the proper air pressure.

• If not the proper air pressure, adjust the air pressure for all tires to specification and verify the DTC does not reset. If the DTC resets, replace the EBCM.

2. Verify that all wheels and tires are the proper size.

• If incorrect wheel or tire size, replace the incorrect wheel or tire and verify the DTC does not reset.

  If the DTC resets, replace the EBCM.

3. If all components test normal, replace the EBCM.

DTC C0252: VSES SENSORS UNCORRELATED

Diagnostic Instructions

• Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
• Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.
• Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

DTC Descriptor

DTC C0252 00

• VSES Sensors Uncorrelated

Circuit/System Description

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) controls the vehicle stability enhancement system (VSES) by monitoring the inputs of the yaw rate/lateral accelerometer sensor and steering wheel angle sensor. The readings are compared to an internal calibrated value so it knows if the vehicle is having an instability condition to activate the VSES. When the readings indicate a VSES event is occurring longer than 10 seconds is not possible under normal conditions. The yaw/lateral sensor is a combination sensor in one component.

Conditions for Running the DTC

• The steering angle has been centered.
• VSES is active.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

One of the following conditions exist:

• VSES is engaged for 10 seconds with the yaw rate error always in either understeer or oversteer.
• The yaw rate error is greater then 10 degrees/second for 5 seconds and the yaw has not changed and the lateral acceleration is less than 0.5 g.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

One or more of the following actions may occur:

• The EBCM disables the antilock brake system (ABS)/traction control system (TCS) and vehicle stability enhancement system (VSES) for the duration of the ignition cycle.
• The ABS indicator illuminates.
• The Stabilitrak indicator illuminates.
• The driver information center (DIC) displays All Wheel Drive Off/ Service Traction Control / Service Stabilitrak message.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

• The condition for the DTC is no longer present.
• The EBCM clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 40 consecutive drive cycles.

NOTE: During normal diagnostic and/or repair verification technicians may find that the ABS, Traction Control and/or Stabilitrak indicators may be ON with NO DTCs displayed by the EBCM. Do not replace the EBCM for this condition.

If the ABS, Traction Control and/or Stabilitrak telltales are ON with no DTCs set, perform the following steps:

1. Remove the key from the ignition, open and close the driver's door to turn off retained accessory power (RAP) and wait 60 seconds.

2. Ignition ON, if the ABS, Traction Control and/or Stabilitrak telltales are still illuminated, operate the vehicle at speeds greater than 15 km/h (10 mph) to complete the self test. The EBCM should request all telltale indicators to turn OFF.

3. If the telltales remain ON with no DTCs set after the drive cycle, disconnect the battery for at least 60 seconds then reconnect the battery.

4. Operate the vehicle at speeds greater than 40 km/h (25 mph), the EBCM should request all telltale indicators to turn OFF.

Diagnostic Aids

The following conditions can cause this concern:

• Improper steering alignment or tire pull
• An improperly mounted or loose combination yaw rate/lateral accelerometer sensor
• An internal yaw rate/lateral accelerometer failure
