ABS System Not Operational

What does this code mean?

Severity : High

C1184 indicates that the ABS system is not operational. This is a manufacturer-specific code, so the exact meaning depends on the manufacturer. Typically the ABS module has disabled anti-lock braking because of another fault. Normal braking still works, but without ABS assistance.

Symptoms

  • ABS warning light on.
  • Stability or traction control light on.
  • Wheels may lock under hard braking.
  • Other ABS or wheel speed codes may be stored.

Possible causes

  • Another stored ABS fault, such as a wheel speed sensor.
  • Low battery voltage or poor ABS module power.
  • Faulty ABS fuse or relay.
  • Damaged ABS module wiring or connector.
  • Faulty ABS module.

Diagnosis and repair

  • Read all ABS module codes and address other faults first.
  • Check battery voltage, ABS fuses and relays.
  • Inspect ABS module connectors and grounds.
  • Check wheel speed sensors in live data.
  • Repair the cause, clear the code and road test carefully.
