C064F: sensor N reports less than its smallest valid signal. In integrated units the sensor element and its evaluation are split: Continental Teves fits a bare measuring bridge into the hydraulic block and leaves amplification and offset to an IC in the module, while Actronics, which repairs such units, names the ATE MK60 with its internal pressure sensor as the system with the most pressure sensor problems and recommends repair or replacement of the unit rather than of a single sensor. A low reading can thus come from the sensor, the contacts or the module input. GM's 2016 hybrid brake module, for comparison, sets the low code of its left rear wheel pressure sensor below 0.3 V within 0.1 s. Nobody documents C064F or the letter N.

Likely causes

Internal pressure sensor of the hydraulic unit failed
Signal contact or line shorted to ground
Evaluation IC in the control module defective

Symptoms

  • ABS/ESC warning lamp on
  • Stability control unavailable
