Can You Continue Driving with a Faulty Wheel Speed Sensor?
1 Answers
You can continue driving with a faulty wheel speed sensor, but it is advisable to drive at a relatively slow speed to the nearest auto repair shop for maintenance or replacement. Below is some extended information about wheel speed sensors: 1. Function: The wheel speed sensor is used to detect wheel speed during the anti-lock braking process of a car. To ensure the normal operation of the ABS system and obtain vehicle operating parameters, a qualified wheel speed sensor is necessary. This system uses a wheel speed sensor detection device to convert signals through A/D conversion, plot curves, and determine whether the wheel speed sensor is qualified based on the data. 2. Impact of Damage: If the wheel speed sensor is faulty, the ABS warning light will illuminate. Additionally, you may experience unstable engine idle, reduced acceleration performance, momentary pauses or stalling when starting or decelerating to a stop while driving, and deviations in the speed displayed on the dashboard.
