Will a faulty tire sensor trigger multiple warning lights?
1 Answers
A faulty tire sensor will trigger the ABS warning light. Sensor malfunction: When the wheel speed sensor fails, the ABS warning light will illuminate. Additionally, symptoms may include unstable engine idle, reduced acceleration performance, momentary stalling or engine shutdown during deceleration or stopping, and discrepancies in the speedometer display. Function of wheel speed sensor: The wheel speed sensor is used for detecting wheel speed during anti-lock braking. To ensure proper ABS system operation and obtain vehicle operating parameters, a qualified wheel speed sensor is required. ABS systems are equipped with electromagnetic induction wheel speed sensors, typically installed in the main reducer or transmission. These sensors consist of permanent magnets, magnetic poles, coils, and a gear ring.
