Candidate cause (the documents say what to do)
Unwanted ABS activation at low speed (front wheel speed sensor mounting corrosion)
These vehicles may have a condition permitting corrosion to occur between the front hub/bearing assembly and the wheel speed sensor.
With the brakes applied between about 6 km/h (3.7 mph) and 16 km/h (10 mph), the corrosion may cause unwanted ABS activation.
What to do
- The reading should be at least 350 mV AC; if it is less, the wheel speed sensor must be replaced.
- If the sensor's mounting surface is warped or bent, the sensor must be replaced.
- Dealers remove the sensor, clean its mounting surface on the bearing, apply rust inhibitor and grease, reinstall it and check peak-to-peak output voltage.
- The passage heading states that the repair is cleaning the wheel speed sensor mounting surface.
- The recall procedure is to remove the sensor, clean the mounting surface, apply a rust inhibitor (Zinc-X) to the surface and reinstall the sensor; the sensor is replaced if necessary.
- GM's earlier recall procedure in Canada also included greasing the mounting surfaces and verifying that the wheel speed signal output voltages were within specification.
Caution: Do not pry the sensor out of the bore; prying breaks the sensor body off in the bore.
In the records
- Hub Bearing Bolt: replaced 1（result not stated: 1）
- Wheel Speed Sensor: cleaned 1
