DTC P215B (Vehicle Speed \u2013 Output Shaft Speed Not Plausible) may be set along with wheel speed sensor DTCs C0035\u2013C0051. These conditions may be caused by the fracturing of the front-wheel drive shaft anti-click washer (Fig. 15, #1), which also may result in possible damage to the ABS wheel speed sensor (WSS).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16454\" src=\"https:\/\/gm-techlink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/F15-washer-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gm-techlink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/F15-washer-1.png 740w, https:\/\/gm-techlink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/F15-washer-1-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/gm-techlink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/F15-washer-1-85x55.png 85w, https:\/\/gm-techlink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/F15-washer-1-200x130.png 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><strong>Fig. 15<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After verifying these conditions, replace the anti-click washer on the affected half shaft and then inspect the wheel speed sensor.
