TCS 1222,1226 codes, bad front wheel sensor? not always
the abs and tcs lights have been showing up on my FRC along w/ 1222,1226, these codes point to the Right Front wheel sensor/circuits
i've changed out dozens of wheel bearings/sensors in the past, all due to bearing wear(you'll hear the noise when turning L/R)
had the car on the lift today for some Preflight checks(going to Bowling Green next week for the cruisein
), swapped out the wire harness that runs from the sensor to the main harness on the front crossmember, fired the car and went for a ride, TCS 1221 C, Done
simple troubleshooting
the fix: replace wire harness
what prompted me to try this? noticed the driver's side harness was dated 9-00, car was built in 99, this is a common fail item on the C5's prior to 2001
