C0035 Fix?


Recommended Posts

Oh oh me me! I want to tell him!

 

"Don't throw parts at it. Go get it properly diagnosed"

 

Now that that is out of they way, my personal feeling is, if you have to take it apart to change the sensor, change the whole hub. That way there's new bearings and all.

Im trying to avoid throwing parts at it. I was wondering if there was any other fixes beside replacing parts. Maybe I should have reworded my question.

 

What are some common issues that will throw a code like this, and are there any easy fixes? Ive never worked with a speed sensor so Im not sure if it is servicable, or if its something you cant get to because its inside the hub assembly. im kinda hoping that someone on here has had this code before, and I would like to hear how they fixed it.

 

On a related note, what does this sensor actually control, and is it safe to drive on with a faulty sensor?

First. Have you checked the hub making sure it's good? Next, you can remove the sensor and try cleaning the mounting surfaces. Good chance your bearing is going

 

safe to drive? As long as it's just a faulty sensor, not a wheel bearing, you can drive all you want. I think your ABS will not operate

Didnt realize the bearing itself would cause this code. I figured it would be going sometime soon though. Had the right side replaced at 90K, and figured I wouldnt get too much firther on the other one. Got 20K out of it though.

 

Ill check the contact surface and stuff first though.

Swung by the mechanics shop this afternoon, just to have him check my hubs for slack. i would have done it myself, but I was in a hurry and didnt want to get dirty. He checked the hubs for slack, and said they feel tight. He said he has had to replace both sides of his truck 3 times (2007 2500 Duramax w/ 90K) I hope I have better luck than he does.

 

So, Im gonna run back up to the shop tomorrow and see if I can clean the sensor any. I did get the truck burried up in some sticky mud a few weeks ago. Could that be the problem. Im not getting any slack or any noise from the hub bearings. Does that mean its OK or could it be jhust startingto go bad? I only ask becaus Ive never replaced one before, but after paying $700 to have the other replaced, Im gonna try to get it replaced if I can do it in my driveway with a socket set.

Wow, for $700 I think I would go buy all the tools I needed to fix it, and find out how to do it myself. The prices that some of these garages charge are highway robbery. Then they wonder why people try to fix it themselves instead let alone go to the shop or especially the stealership.

OK, got the sensor out and noticed some rust on the contact. Cleaned it off and after reinstalling, I noticed a tick when i rotated the hub coming from the hub/knuckle assembly. Tried getting the hub off to isolate it and see if that was the noise, but I dont have a socket big enough for that nut on the axel.

 

What size is that btw?

OK, now a bearing question. I was looking on Rock Auto and there are a huge list of hubs to choose from. Were the factory hubs AC Delco, or made by someone else? Ive seen several times where another company makes the part and its just rebadged as AC Delco and marked up, when the exact same part is labeled by the manufacturer for half price or less.

 

 

Out of Timken, Moog, Raysbestos, or SKF, which brand would you choose. They also list AC Delco, but they are almost double. Is it worth it, or just a factory part markup.

 

 

Just to be clear, Im not throwing parts at it. I was just looking at part prices in case the ticking was the hub.
