DTC Troubleshooting: 11, 13, 15, 17

DTC 11, 13, 15, 17: Wheel Sensor (Open/Short to Body Ground/Short to Power)

1. Disconnect the VSA control unit 47P connector.

1. Start the engine.

1. Measure the voltage between body ground and the appropriate wheel sensor +B and GND terminals of the VSA control unit 47P connector individually (see table).

   DTC | Appropriate Terminal
   --- | ---
   +B | GND
   11 (Right-front) | FR +B: No. 18 | FR-GND: No. 17
   13 (Left-front) | FL +B: No. 4 | FL-GND: No. 20
   15 (Right-rear) | RR +B: No. 5 | RR-GND: No. 6
   17 (Left-rear) | RL +B: No. 2 | RL-GND: No. 3

Is there 1 V or more?

YES | - | Repair short to power in the wire between the VSA modulator-control unit and the appropriate wheel sensor.■
NO | - | Go to Step 4 .

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

1. Check for continuity between body ground and the appropriate wheel sensor +B and GND terminals of the VSA control unit 47P connector individually (see table).

   DTC | Appropriate Terminal
   --- | ---
   +B | GND
   11 (Right-front) | FR +B: No. 18 | FR-GND: No. 17
   13 (Left-front) | FL +B: No. 4 | FL-GND: No. 20
   15 (Right-rear) | RR +B: No. 5 | RR-GND: No. 6
   17 (Left-rear) | RL +B: No. 2 | RL-GND: No. 3

Is there continuity?

YES | - | Go to Step 6 .
NO | - | Go to Step 8 .

1. Disconnect the appropriate wheel sensor 2P connector.

1. Check for continuity between body ground and the appropriate wheel sensor +B and GND terminals of the VSA control unit 47P connector individually (see table).

   DTC | Appropriate Terminal
   --- | ---
   +B | GND
   11 (Right-front) | FR +B: No. 18 | FR-GND: No. 17
   13 (Left-front) | FL +B: No. 4 | FL-GND: No. 20
   15 (Right-rear) | RR +B: No. 5 | RR-GND: No. 6
   17 (Left-rear) | RL +B: No. 2 | RL-GND: No. 3

Is there continuity?

YES | - | Repair short to body ground in the wire between the VSA modulator-control unit and the wheel sensor.■
NO | - | Replace the appropriate wheel sensor. ■

1. Disconnect the appropriate wheel sensor 2P connector.

1. Check for continuity between the appropriate wheel sensor +B and GND terminals of the VSA control unit 47P connector (see table).

   DTC | Appropriate Terminal
   --- | ---
   +B | GND
   11 (Right-front) | FR +B: No. 18 | FR-GND: No. 17
   13 (Left-front) | FL +B: No. 4 | FL-GND: No. 20
   15 (Right-rear) | RR +B: No. 5 | RR-GND: No. 6
   17 (Left-rear) | RL +B: No. 2 | RL-GND: No. 3

Is there continuity?

YES | - | Repair short in the wires between the VSA modulator-control unit and the wheel sensor.■
NO | - | Go to Step 10 .

1. Substitute a known-good wheel sensor for the appropriate wheel sensor (see table).

   DTC | Appropriate Wheel Sensor
   --- | ---
   11 | Right-front
   13 | Left-front
   15 | Right-rear
   17 | Left-rear

1. Clear the DTCs using the HDS.

1. Disconnect the HDS from the 16P DLC.

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF, then turn it ON (II) again. Test-drive the vehicle at speeds above 30 km/h (19 mph).

Does the ABS indicator come on?

YES | - | Check for a loose VSA control unit 47P connector. If necessary, substitute a known-good VSA modulator-control unit , and recheck.■
NO | - | Replace the original wheel sensor. ■
