C0563ABS Control Module Performance
- Generic OBD-II code · Chassis
- Can trigger limp mode
- How the car detects it
- C0563 is a summary code: the ABS control module reports that it cannot carry out its own function correctly, without pinning the fault on one sensor or valve. Ford shows how it is used. In its 2015–2019 hybrids the ABS module stores internal faults as U3000 (control module) or U2200 (corrupt data), and the hybrid powertrain module mirrors both as C0563 so that regenerative braking faults appear in the OBD system. On 2025–26 F-150, Ranger, Bronco, Expedition and Navigator C0563 sits in the ABS module alongside the message Check Brake System, traced to air left in the system after bleeding or to brake service mode still active; the workshop manual test was revised (SSM 54733). Clear underlying faults first, then check software.
