The system relay is energized when the ignition is ON. The system relay supplies voltage to the valve solenoids and the pump motor. This voltage is referred to as the system voltage. The electronic brake control module (EBCM) microprocessor activates the valve solenoids by grounding the control circuit.
• | The ignition is ON. |
• | The vehicle is experiencing an ABS event. |
The EBCM energizes the left, front dump valve for 9 consecutive seconds.
• | The EBCM disables the ABS/DRP/VSES. |
• | The TCS operates with engine torque reduction only. |
• | The ABS indicator turns ON. |
• | The brake warning indicator turns ON. |
• | The message center displays the service stability system message. |
The conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present and you use the scan tool Clear DTCs function.
The most likely cause of this DTC is a mechanical failure that causes a wheel to lock and remain locked. The DTCs may also set, conceivably, when the ABS is activated on surfaces that are nearly impossible to get traction on. If the DTC sets within these conditions, diagnosis of the ABS system is not necessary.
The number below refers to the step number on the diagnostic table:
Step | Action | Yes | No |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Did you perform the ABS Diagnostic System Check? | Go to Step 2 | |
Do the Solenoid Tests show the system to be functioning normally? | Go to Diagnostic Aids | Go to Step 3 | |
3 | Replace the BPMV. Refer to Brake Pressure Modulator Valve Replacement . Did you complete the replacement? | Go to Step 4 | -- |
4 | Use the scan tool in order to perform the necessary Solenoid Tests. Do the Solenoid Tests show the system to be functioning normally? | System OK | Go to Step 3 |
