C05C4Brake Pressure Sensor F Missing Calibration

  • Generic OBD-II code · Chassis
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
The brake controller finds no stored calibration (offset or zero point) for pressure sensor F, the sixth hydraulic pressure sensor in its numbering. Which physical sensor carries the letter F is up to the maker, and none publishes C05C4. Comparable codes exist for sensors A and B: GM checks sensor B in its hybrid brake controller via test pulses after offset compensation, and Saab/GM calls for a scan-tool pressure sensor calibration after replacing the EBCM or the modulator. Hitachi learns pressure sensor zeros only while the master cylinder is pressureless and the pedal is released. A new module or hydraulic unit without the follow-up calibration is the usual cause. C05C5 to C05C8 cover the sensor's signal faults.
What you may notice
  • ABS, ESC or brake warning lamp on
  • Stability control or brake assist functions disabled
Likely causes
  • LikelyCalibration skipped after module or hydraulic unit replacement
  • PossibleCalibration interrupted by brake application or low voltage
  • RareCalibration data lost in the module memory
