    I'm getting a fault code SPN 929 on my freightliner Cascadia. I looked it up and it says "Tire Location"

    I found this bracket loose near the tire... does anyone know what this is exactly? Tire pressure sensor maybe?

    thank you

    Any idea if it needs to be reattached urgently? Or is it ok if I just secure it with some zipties ?

    ABS wire. Look where the area circled in blue is going to. Trace it to the sensor. Press/push the area around the wire. With the bracket loose and pulling on the wire it may have disturbed the sensor. Sometimes they walk out a bit and set a code. See if it needs pushed back in.

    You can see where the speed sensor mounting bracket broke off of at the brake chamber mounting nut. Inspect the opposing side to see if it is mounted in the same manner.

    Yes you can remove the bracket from the ABS sensor and zip tie for temp, maybe to the top of the brake chamber clamp?
