Nissan Maxima Service and Repair Manual / Brakes / Brake control system / DTC/circuit diagnosis / C1115 ABS sensor [abnormal signal]

Description

When the sensor rotor rotates, the magnetic field changes. It converts the magnetic field changes to current signals (rectangular wave) and transmits them to the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).

Diagnosis Procedure

CAUTION: Do not check between wheel sensor terminals.

1.CONNECTOR INSPECTION

  1. Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector and wheel sensor of malfunctioning code.
  2. Check terminals for deformation, disconnection, looseness or damage.

2.CHECK WHEEL SENSOR OUTPUT SIGNAL

  1. Connect ABS active wheel sensor tester (J-45741) to wheel sensor using appropriate adapter.
  2. Turn on the ABS active wheel sensor tester power switch. NOTE: The green POWER indicator should illuminate. If the POWER indicator does not illuminate, replace the battery in the ABS active wheel sensor tester before proceeding.
  3. Spin the wheel of the vehicle by hand and observe the red SENSOR indicator on the ABS active wheel sensor tester. The red SENSOR indicator should flash on and off to indicate an output signal. NOTE: If the red SENSOR indicator illuminates but does not flash, reverse the polarity of the tester leads and retest.

3.CHECK TIRES

Check the inflation pressure, wear and size of each tire.

4.CHECK WHEEL BEARINGS

Check wheel bearing axial end play

5.CHECK WIRING HARNESS FOR SHORT CIRCUIT

  1. Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector and wheel sensor of malfunctioning code.
  2. Check continuity between front wheel sensor connector terminals (A), rear wheel sensor connector terminals (B) and ground
