C058BBrake Booster Motor B Position Sensor Circuit/Open

  • Generic OBD-II code · Chassis
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
C058B reports an open circuit at the position sensor of booster motor B. Such a second sensor exists where the booster has a second motor or winding system with its own commutation, or where the rotor angle is measured twice for safety. Stellantis shows that the eBooster of the Jeep Wagoneer has a motor B position channel, since its parts bulletin names C058E (range/performance) for it; C058B itself is not published by any maker. Kollmorgen's early patent on redundant windings gives every winding set its own group of Hall sensors, so losing one group only affects that set. An open line is detected as in Hitachi's resolver circuit: the bias signal no longer arrives and the input floats to its pull-up level. The module then drops channel B and runs on A or with reduced assist.
