Test 8A Left Front Wheel Speed Sensor Continuity Fault

1993 Chrysler LeBaron LandauSECTION Test 8A Left Front Wheel Speed Sensor Continuity Fault
NOTE: For connector terminal identification, refer to CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  . For wiring diagrams, see WIRING DIAGRAMS  .
  1. Inspect left front Wheel Speed Sensor (WSS) for damage. If left front WSS is damaged, replace left front WSS. Perform VER-1A  . If left front WSS is okay, go to next step.
  2. Disconnect left front WSS 2-pin connector located near brake master cylinder. See Fig 1 . Ensure ignition is off. Using an external ohmmeter, check resistance across left front WSS male connector. If resistance is not 1000-4000 ohms, replace left front WSS. Perform VER-1A  . If resistance is 1000-4000 ohms, go to next step.
  3. Disconnect Controller Anti-Lock Brake (CAB) 60-pin connector. See Figure and Figure . Put DRB-II in ohmmeter mode. Using DRB-II, check resistance of CAB 60-pin connector terminal No. 8 (Red/Dark Blue wire on AA, AG and AJ bodies or Red/White wire on AP body). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short to ground in Red/Dark Blue wire or Red/White wire. Perform VER-1A  . If resistance is more than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  4. Using DRB-II, check resistance of CAB 60-pin connector terminal No. 9 (Red wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short to ground in Red wire. Perform VER-1A  . If resistance is more than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  5. Connect a jumper wire between chassis ground and CAB 60-pin connector terminal No. 8 (Red/Dark Blue wire on AA, AG and AJ bodies or Red/White wire on AP body). Using DRB-II, check resistance of left front WSS female connector Red/Dark Blue wire (Red/White wire on AP body). If resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open in Red/Dark Blue wire or Red/White wire. Perform VER-1A  . If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  6. Disconnect jumper wire from CAB 60-pin connector terminal No. 8. Connect jumper wire between chassis ground and CAB 60-pin connector terminal No. 9 (Red wire). Using DRB-II, check resistance of left front WSS female connector Red wire. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open in Red wire. Perform VER-1A  . If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  7. Disconnect jumper wire from CAB 60-pin connector terminal No. 9. Replace CAB. Perform VER-1A  .

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
