  • A sensor B phase calibrated or seated wrong
  • A motor control module no longer matching the signal

What to do next

  1. Read drive motor B phase W current on a scan tool
  2. Compare the phase W reading to the phase U and V readings
  3. Test the phase W sensor circuit for added resistance
  4. Check the phase W sensor calibration and seating
  5. Replace the phase W current sensor if it drifts off range
