Default C1225H wheel sensor code remedy.

Pulled codes after getting AH/TCS service message. Got C1225H and I see where that is the wheel speed variation sensor. Going to check the plug for proper connection or corrosion. I see where another member posted using WD40 to clean out the plug, is that the recommended cleaner or would it be better to use something like Loctite nonflammable electrical contact cleaner.

I would use contact cleaner. After all it is an electoral contact.

I just saw a post this morning on this exact same issue. The guy was really good at diagnostics and ruled out everything but the EBCM using the FSM diagnostics. He replaced the EBCM and had the same issue.

He then replaced the hub (with sensor) when the replacement EBCM gave him the same code. That fixed the issue and he then put back in the original EBCM and verified the code was gone there too.

Just info for thought. I assume it had to be an "at speed" issue that could not be seen otherwise.

I missed the post, are you saying that it turned out being the hub sensor that was bad, and not the EBCM. Expensive troubleshooting there.

Use an appropriate electrical contact cleaner and see if that helps.
