| Description of the problem | My abs and brake warning lights came on at the same time on my 2008 yaris sedan. The manual states to contact the dealer immediately in this situation. The abs is disabled in this situation. The problem was a left rear wheel speed sensor shorted (code p0215). Due to excessive corrosion on the connection the wiring harness was also replaced. The replaced parts were 89544-02070 (sensor, skid control) and 89516-52100 (wire, skid control). The car was less than a year old with 12,465 miles at the time. The amount of corrosion on the sensor and connecting wires on the yaris point to a potential design issue. A car that is less than a year old should not have these issues. |
