FR WHEEL SENSOR

BAD SIGNAL

 

Signal too large:

·   The wheel speed information at the affected wheel speed sensor input is higher than 280 km/h (174 mph)

·   Above condition must be fulfilled for at least 1 s

or

 

Signal to ground, input open, missing signal:

·   Brake pedal not actuated

·   TC system switched on

·   At least 4 s elapsed since ignition ON

·   Vehicle speed higher than 10 km/h (6 mph) (wheel speed information from one intact signal)

·   The wheel speed signal from the affected wheel speed sensor input is 0, while the wheel speed signal from at least one of the other wheel speed sensor inputs is greater than 10 km/h (6 mph)

·   Above conditions must be fulfilled for at least 20 s

 

Note:

The control unit also recognizes faults when the vehicle is being driven under extreme conditions similar to those described above (e. g. driving off on a slope).

 

Faults are recognized at 1, 2 and 3 wheel speed inputs, for both simultaneous and sequential malfunctions.

For Model Year '92 control units (C 20 XE engine with Motronic M 2.5), simultaneous malfunction of all 4 wheel speed signals is not recognized.

 

For control units as of Model Year '93, the malfunction of all 4 wheel speed signals is recognized using a plausibility check. For this, the brake / accelerator pedal positions, the engine speed and the engine torque are evaluated. The fault "malfunction of all four wheel speed signals" must exist for at least 20 s.
