what does code C0045 mean for my Volvo XC60 Second Generation (2018-2024)

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather tools and parts needed for repair.
• Disconnect the battery's negative terminal to prevent electrical shorts.
• Ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and securely raised on jack stands.

2. Inspect and Replace Wheel Speed Sensor

• Tools Required: Socket set, torque wrench, multimeter, wiring harness repair kit (if needed).
• Remove the right front wheel to access the wheel speed sensor.
• Locate the wheel speed sensor mounted on the hub or brake assembly.
• Disconnect the wheel speed sensor connector carefully.
• Remove the retaining bolt(s) securing the sensor to the assembly.
• Carefully pull the sensor out of its housing, taking care not to damage the mounting area.
• Inspect the sensor's wiring harness for any signs of wear or damage; repair as necessary.
• Install the new wheel speed sensor by reversing the removal steps.
  • Ensure the sensor is seated correctly and secure it with the retaining bolt(s) to the manufacturer’s torque specifications.
• Reconnect the wheel speed sensor connector, making sure it clicks into place.

3. Reconnect Battery and Test

• Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
• Start the vehicle and allow it to run.
• Perform a test drive to ensure that the ABS and traction control lights are extinguished and that the speedometer functions properly.
