Circuit Description
The electronic brake control module (EBCM) energizes the appropriate isolation and dump valve solenoids to control hydraulic pressure applied to a brake circuit during an ABS event.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The ignition is ON. |
| • | The vehicle is experiencing an ABS event. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
An ABS event lasting 36 seconds or longer occurs on any brake circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The EBCM disables the ABS/TCS/DRP. |
| • | The ABS indicator turns ON. |
| • | The brake warning indicator turns ON. |
| • | The ABS fault message is displayed. |
| • | The traction fault message is displayed. |
| • | The brakes message is displayed. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
The conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present and you use the scan tool Clear DTCs function.
Diagnostic Aids
Always diagnose and repair any wheel speed sensor failures prior to dagnosing DTC C0220, C0221 or C0222.
These DTCs may set, theoretically, 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.
Test Description
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 |
