Check the 'Possible Causes' listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector pins.
The cost to diagnose the C0050 Pontiac code is 1.0 hour of labor. The diagnosis time and labor rates at auto repair shops vary depending on the location, make and model of the vehicle, and even the engine type. Most auto repair shops charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
The wheel speeds are detected by active Wheel Speed Sensors (WSS) and encoder rings. The encoder ring consists of permanent magnets. Each Wheel Speed Senso receives ignition voltage from the Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) and provides an alternating current square wave signal to the electronic brake control module. As the wheel spins, the electronic brake control module uses the frequency of the square wave signal to calculate the wheel speed. The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set when an improper signal is detected on the wheel speed sensor ignition circuit.
