what does C0035 code indicate on my Ford Mustang S550 (2015-2023)?

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools and parts. Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the ignition is off.
• Tools Required:
  • OBD-II scanner
  • Multimeter
  • Socket set
  • Torque wrench
  • Screwdriver set
• Safety Warnings:
  • Disconnect the battery before working on electrical systems to prevent shorts.

2. Inspect the Wheel Speed Sensor

• Locate the left front wheel speed sensor near the brake rotor.
• Disconnect the electrical connector from the speed sensor.
• Remove the sensor from its mounting location using the appropriate socket.

3. Test the Wheel Speed Sensor

• Using a multimeter, check the resistance of the sensor terminals. Refer to the vehicle manual for the specific resistance range.
• If the resistance is out of specification, replace the sensor.
• While rotating the wheel, check the voltage output from the sensor with the multimeter. It should produce a varying voltage signal.

4. Replace the Wheel Speed Sensor (if necessary)

• If the sensor is faulty, install a new wheel speed sensor by reversing the removal steps.
• Ensure the sensor is seated correctly and reconnect the electrical connector securely.

5. Reassemble and Test

• Reconnect the battery and ensure all tools are removed from the engine bay.
• Start the vehicle and perform a test drive to verify functionality.
• Clear the error codes with the OBD-II scanner and monitor for any reoccurrence of the C0035 code.
