C0508 Chassis

C0508 — Right Front Wheel Speed Sensor A Circuit Low

Right-front WSS A signal voltage below 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.

General code reference. Confirm the definition and diagnostic procedure for your vehicle's year, model and engine. A stored code alone does not identify a failed part.
