P215A — Vehicle Speed - Wheel Speed Correlation

The vehicle speed signal computed from VSS does not match the wheel-speed signal from ABS within tolerance. One of the two sources is wrong, or there is a tyre-size mismatch.

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.

Affected components

  • Vehicle speed sensor
  • Wheel speed sensor

Possible causes to check

These are possible checks, not a ranked diagnosis. Follow the vehicle manufacturer's test procedure before replacing parts.

  • Tyre size mismatch versus calibration
  • One sensor drifts or fails

Diagnostic notes

  • The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate
  • This code can affect emissions

Sources

Check each reference's vehicle and model-year scope. General background links do not establish which fault is most likely on your vehicle.

Diagnostic information is provided for reference only. Confirm the code with a compatible scan tool and follow the vehicle manufacturer's service procedures before replacing components.
