what does it mean if my Tesla Model 3 Highland (2024-present) has a C0035 code?

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather tools and parts needed for the repair.
• Safety gear (gloves, goggles).
• Disconnect the vehicle's battery to prevent electrical shock.

2. Inspect and Repair Wiring

• Tools Required: Wire cutters, wire strippers, soldering iron, heat shrink tubing.
• Check the wiring harness connected to the wheel speed sensors for any fraying or breaks.
• Repair any damaged wires by cutting out the damaged section and splicing in new wire, ensuring secure connections.
• Use heat shrink tubing to cover the repaired sections to prevent future damage.

3. Clean or Replace Wheel Speed Sensors

• Tools Required: Ratchet set, torque wrench, cleaning solution (e.g., brake cleaner).
• Remove the wheel and tire assembly to access the wheel speed sensors.
• If the sensors are dirty, clean them with brake cleaner and a soft cloth.
• If the sensors show signs of damage or failure during inspection, replace them with OEM parts.
• Reinstall sensors and torque to the manufacturer's specifications.

4. Reconnect Battery and Test

• Reconnect the vehicle's battery.
• Clear the C0035 code using the OBD-II scanner and perform a test drive.
• Monitor the vehicle’s performance and ensure no warning lights re-illuminate.
