A magnetic sensor may sense a magnetic field during a rotation of a wheel. The sensed magnetic field may represent a profile of the wheel during the rotation. The magnetic sensor may determine, based on the sensed magnetic field, information associated with a possible fault of at least one of the magnetic sensor or the wheel. The magnetic sensor may transmit a first set of output pulses corresponding to the profile of the wheel during the rotation. The first set of output pulses may be transmitted during the rotation of the wheel. The magnetic sensor may transmit a second set of output pulses that corresponds to the information associated with the possible fault.
