Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Lincoln Navigator. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The wheel speed sensor uses the tone ring to generate a square wave signal proportional to wheel speed which is sent to the ABS module. The front wheel bearing, rear axle shafts, tone rings and wheel speed sensors must be undamaged and free from any contamination to produce a clean signal for use by the ABS module. Also, all 4 tires and wheels must be of the same manufacturer recommended size for the wheel speed sensor to generate an accurate wheel speed signal. 

PPT B ABS MODULE DTC FAULT TRIGGER CONDITIONS

DTC Description Fault Trigger Conditions
C0030:07 Left Front Tone Wheel: Signal Frequency Incorrect Sets in continuous memory if there is damage to the wheel speed sensor or encoder ring. After ABS initialization and when vehicle speed is above 48 km/h (30 mph), the ABS module monitors the raw wheel speed sensor signal for a cyclically reoccurring gap or slope in the signal. This indicates a possible missing tooth in the encoder ring. If the signal is incorrect for more than 1 minute, the DTC is set.
C0033:07 Right Front Tone Wheel: Signal Frequency Incorrect Sets in continuous memory if there is damage to the wheel speed sensor or encoder ring. After ABS initialization and when vehicle speed is above 48 km/h (30 mph), the ABS module monitors the raw wheel speed sensor signal for a cyclically reoccurring gap or slope in the signal. This indicates a possible missing tooth in the encoder ring. If the signal is incorrect for more than 1 minute, the DTC is set.
