DTC C0288 or C088 Brake Warning Lamp Circuit Shorted to B+ Domestic
Circuit Description
The red BRAKE warning lamp is supplied ignition voltage through the GAUGE fuse. The BRAKE warning lamp can be illuminated by the EBCM, Brake Pressure Differential Switch or by the Park Brake Switch.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | High voltage is present on the BRAKE warning lamp circuit when the circuit is expected to be low (lamp commanded on by the EBCM) |
| • | Anything that keeps the Brake warning lamp circuit high when the lamp is supposed to be illuminated (such as a short to voltage on CKT 33) |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
No action taken, the ABS is not disabled.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | Repair the conditions responsible for setting the DTC |
| • | Use the Scan Tool Clear DTCs function |
Diagnostic Aids
DTC C0288 is usually set by a short to voltage in the wiring between the brake warning lamp and the EBCM.
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the steps in the diagnostic table:
-
Determines if the BRAKE warning lamp circuit is operating properly when controlled by the EBCM.
-
Determines if the BRAKE warning lamp circuit is operating properly without the EBCM.
