C0153Right Front ABS Inlet Solenoid B Circuit Malfunction
- Generic OBD-II code · Chassis
- Can trigger limp mode
- How the car detects it
- C0153 cannot be found in any accessible J2012 list, NHTSA bulletin or manufacturer table; neither the code nor its B suffix is publicly documented. By title it concerns a second inlet solenoid for the right front wheel. Inlet valves are open at rest and close to hold caliper pressure while the module decides whether to release or rebuild it. Bosch combines the per-wheel valves, the return pump and the control electronics in one hydraulic unit. The MOTOR study of the ATE system shows that coil faults are found by timed current pulses, and that the module records exactly which valve misbehaved before shutting down anti-lock. In practice, the coil, the plug between coil and module, or the module itself are suspects.
