C003BRight Rear Wheel Speed Sensor Supply
- Generic OBD-II code · Chassis
- Can trigger limp mode
- How the car detects it
- Covers the supply circuit that powers the right rear active wheel speed sensor, completing the supply set with C0032 and C0038. Active sensors need a regulated voltage from the ABS/ESC module; this code is set when that supply is open, shorted to ground or to another voltage, or outside the regulated range so the sensor cannot produce a valid signal. It is distinct from the sensor-signal code C003A in that the fault is on the feed rather than in the sensor element. A fault disables ABS, traction and stability control for that corner and lights the ABS warning lamp while base braking remains. No manufacturer documents this code publicly; NHTSA lists C003B as right rear supply in the J2012 table of its EPS safety report.
