Code result

C0062

Right Rear Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit Low

Moderate severity

What it means

Voltage in the right rear wheel speed sensor circuit is below the expected range. Wheel-speed signals feed ABS, ESC, traction control, transmission and odometer — a single dropped signal disables all of these safety functions until repaired.

Is it safe to drive?

Use caution

The vehicle is usually drivable for short distances, but the problem can worsen or affect emissions. Diagnose and repair as soon as practical.
