- For retrieved code, check for the following conditions on front wheels or rear axle. Check for metal chips or debris on sensor pole or can. Ensure air gap is less than .070" (1.8 mm) for front sensors, and less than .050" (1.3 mm) for rear sensor. Inspect speed sensor tone ring for damage. On front sensors, inspect tone ring for material build-up between teeth.
