Can You Drive with a Faulty Wheel Speed Sensor?

[DiReagan]

You can continue driving with a faulty wheel speed sensor, but only at low speeds for short distances. It is recommended that the owner drive to the nearest repair shop for servicing. The wheel speed sensor is primarily used to measure the rotational speed of a vehicle's wheels, and the detected frequency signal is directly transmitted to the ABS computer. A malfunctioning wheel speed sensor can directly affect the vehicle's safety systems (such as ESP, ABS, etc.), leading to a decrease in the vehicle's stability. The car may experience sudden wheel lock-up, significantly increasing safety hazards and the likelihood of traffic accidents.
