ABS lights on, codes C1043, U1417 and u140b

This code is specific to the tone wheel and not the sensor. So, this means we need to go to the left rear tone wheel and inspect it for cracks or broken teeth.

More than likely the axle will need to be removed in order to replace the tone wheel or just the axle all together. I attached the testing and the process for the rear axle below.

Please run through this and let us know what questions you have. Thanks

Sorry. I forgot that this was a year that they started using a relutor ring with a magnetic encoding ring.

Take a look below at these pictures. However, you do not need to replace the entire axle. There are many options out there for repair kits.

However, I am also attaching a case as well for this issue. If the axle nut is loose then it will cause this code. So, I would suggest checking this and making sure this is not the issue.

Please let us know what happens. Thanks

This code is pretty specific in the fact that the ABS does not like the signal it is getting from the speed sensor. It is able to tell that the signal from the tone wheel is not correct so more than likely it is just worn out or the air gap is not correct.

Based on what you have done, I would replace the ring and see what happens. Normally you can see something wrong with it, but you may have to remove it and if you are going that far, I would just replace it.

We don't have a process for this on the manual because they say to just replace the axle assembly.

You need to remove the axle or at least get it loose and out of the knuckle so that you can pull the old one off. Then you need to press the new one onto the axle so it would be easiest if it were out of the vehicle.

Here is a video from a parts company that shows how to remove the axle on your vehicle:

You can search this vehicle and how to replace the tone wheel and there are a few videos of people doing this in the vehicle, but I would remove it.

You are going to have to find something like a bearing race that will press the tone wheel on evenly. Don't use a hammer and tap it on because you will damage it.

Just Google 2006 Charger Tone ring. I found this site below that appears to be a good deal.

We don't like to recommend parts because I may have missed something so, please check the specifics and make sure this fits your vehicle, but it appears it does.

The ring itself would not cause this. How fast were you going, and did you feel the shaking in the pedal like it was pulsating? If it was making noise as well, then this could just be rust build up on the rear rotors.

The only way this would be related to the code is if the axle is moving around so the sensor is not picking up a clean signal. However, that is what that case that I attached earlier was talking about where you had to check the torque on the axle nut.

If the thumping noise was only heard when pressing the brakes in reverse, then I would think it is in the rear, but this would require a little more investigation. I would suggest driving the vehicle a little bit more and see if it stops as this could be rust build up if the vehicle has not been driven in a while.

Also, if this turns out to be on the same wheel as the code then that is most likely something loose and most likely it is the hub bearing.

Okay. That is not going to be related to this issue then of the tone wheel so we are at the point where I think we need a new post started just so that others that have a thump like this will find the solution when you reach it.

If you want to progress through this tone wheel issue and it happens to fix that as well then clearly post all that on this one. If it doesn't and then get a new post started, that is fine or just jump on starting a new one, it is up to you.

That is not going to be related at all to the tone wheel. This is a steering angle sensor issue, so I am not sure why that didn't show up earlier but again, we need to get a different post started for that. However, if the code was not active then more than likely it set after a battery disconnect if that was done anytime recent and once you steer the wheel back and forth, it was re-initialized as this is telling you the sensor is not initialized.
