VSA DTC Troubleshooting: 11, 13, 15, 17
DTC 11, 13, 15, 17:
 Wheel Sensor (Open/Short to Body Ground/Short to Power)
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  1. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), then turn it to ON (II).
  1. Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC 11, 13, 15, and/or 17 indicated?
YES -
Go to Step 5 .
NO -
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for loose terminals between the wheel sensor 2P connector and the VSA modulator-control unit 46P connector. Refer to intermittent failures troubleshooting. ■
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  1. Disconnect the VSA modulator-control unit 46P connector.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  1. Measure the voltage between body ground and the appropriate wheel sensor +B and GND terminals of the VSA modulator-control unit 46P connector individually (see table).

Is there 0.1 V or more?
YES -
Repair short to power in the wire between the VSA modulator-control unit and the appropriate wheel sensor.■
NO -
Go to Step 9 .
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  1. Check for continuity between body ground and the appropriate wheel sensor +B and GND terminals of the VSA modulator-control unit 46P connector individually (see table).
