Default Code C1226

Hello

I have a 1997 Corvette coupe A4. Now that it is cool out in the mornings when I hit a bump in the road I get the code C1226. What is the fix for this?

Thank You
Paul

It is the right front wheel speed sensor. Look for a loose connection at the wheel. Another failure point is the jumper that connects to the speed sensor. If the connections look good switch the jumpers around on the front and see if you get code C1225 (LF failure) . If you do it is the jumper. The jumper is part number: 10332527

Hey do you ever got to Matty's Sail Loft?
