Defect
On the rear wheel speed sensor of four-wheel-drive vehicles, the resin material used in the sensor is inappropriate, allowing it to absorb moisture. This causes a short circuit in the sensor's internal electronic components, producing abnormal output signals. As a result, the ABS warning lamp may illuminate and the ABS function may deactivate, or the speedometer may stop operating.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, verify the identification number of the rear wheel speed sensor. If a pre-corrected part is installed, replace it with a corrected part.
