Rough Road Sensor Malfunction
on 2013 Kia Forte 2.4L I4 · FWD
What this code means
The PCM has detected a malfunction with the rough road sensor or its circuit. The rough road sensor tells the PCM when the vehicle is on rough terrain so it can distinguish road-induced crankshaft speed variation from actual misfires.
Symptoms
- Check Engine Light
- False misfire codes may set on rough roads
- No driveability symptoms typically
Common causes
- Faulty rough road sensor
- Wiring issue in rough road sensor circuit
- Sensor connector corrosion
- ABS wheel speed sensor issue providing rough road data
Diagnostic steps
- Check rough road sensor signal on scan tool
- Inspect sensor wiring and connector
- Test sensor output
- Check if ABS wheel speed sensors are providing data
Repair notes
Replace the rough road sensor or repair wiring; false misfire codes should stop after repair.
