Default DIC code explanation?

I'm getting a DTS1226 code on my DIC (RF wheel speed variation). Any explanations on what this code means?

Have you done any work on the suspension recently, if not then maybe the speed sensor is just going out.

Replace the "jumper" wire between the sensor and the harness. It is about a foot long. There is an updated jumper. Fichtner can order and it costs about $40. Also seems to me a second (updated - additional) bracket should be order for the new jumper. Fichtner did not send or recommend said bracket...but I did not ask either...when I ordered my updated wire.

Else, check the jumper for damage and tightness. Reapply die-electric grease to the connectors.

Otherwise a GM sensor is $400.00 dollars and requires separation off the lower ball joint.

Steel brake lines can also bring on this code as can mis matched tires.
