What is wrong
Vehicle description: motor homes equipped with tag axles. There is reduced braking ability on the rear axle due to the tag axle ABS sensors reading "no tire/wheel rotation," under heavy braking conditions. The sensors detect that the wheel rotation has ceased and then stops sending a signal to the ABS computer.
Risk
The vehicles could have reduced braking ability and increased stopping distances on the rear axle, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy
Dealers will delete the ABS on the tag axle (only), by removing the sensors and wiring harness.
