C0035 on Chrysler by model: symptoms, diagnosis and fix
ABS control module suffers internal failures due to short circuits in main circuit board. Prevents proper ABS operation and stores fault codes. While regular braking functions, vehicle loses anti-lock capability, traction control, and stability control.
Common Symptoms
- ABS warning light constantly illuminated
- BAS warning light
- Traction control warning
- U0121 code (lost communication with ABS)
- No ABS function during hard braking
How to Fix
ABS module replacement or professional rebuild service. Check all wheel speed sensors and wiring before replacement. Many specialty shops offer rebuild for $300-500 with warranty. OEM module requires programming to VIN.

Frequently asked questions
What does C0035 mean on a Chrysler?
C0035 stands for "Left Front Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit." This chassis code indicates a fault in the left front wheel speed sensor circuit. Each wheel has a speed sensor that tells the ABS, traction control, and stability control systems how fast that wheel is turning; the control module sets this code when the signal from the left front sensor is missing, erratic, or out of range. Without a valid reading, the computer can't safely operate anti-lock braking and related systems, so it usually disables ABS and traction/stability control and lights the corresponding dashboard warnings (normal braking still works). It generally points to the sensor itself, its wiring, or the toothed reluctor ring it reads. On Chrysler it is documented across 1 model: 300.
What are the most common causes of C0035?
The most common causes of C0035 are: Faulty left front wheel speed sensor, Damaged sensor wiring or connector (road debris, corrosion), Metal debris or rust on the sensor tip or air gap, Damaged or cracked tone/reluctor ring, Loose or improperly seated sensor, Corroded or loose wheel bearing with integrated sensor, Open or short in the sensor circuit, Faulty ABS control module (less common). The specific cause varies by vehicle.
How much does it cost to fix C0035 on a Chrysler?
Published repair estimates on Chrysler range from $300 to $1,200 depending on the model and root cause. If an issue mentions a recall or campaign, check your VIN with the manufacturer or NHTSA and confirm eligibility and coverage with a dealer.
