    Hi folks.


    My 2013 1.6L diesel Ford Focus passed the NCT yesterday evening. When I got home I realised it had an advisory note on it.


    From the OBD scan it has a code of C003115 with a description of "Open circuit/positive short" and a location of "Wheel speed sensor, front left".


    There are no warning lights on the dash and the car is driving fine. Is this something I need to get investigated or can I leave alone? The NCT guy didn't mention it at all.


    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks for your help.

    Nothing to worry about, it's almost possibly an old code stored on the ECU from a short circuiting from a dead battery. You could buy a cheap OBD code reader and delete the historic code.

    The NCT are now plugging in OBD code reader and detailing what's on he ECU whether old codes or not.

    Thanks for the reply. I think I will leave it so. I might mention it to my mechanic whenever it is in with him again.
