DTC Descriptor

DTC C0201 04

-
Antilock Brake System (ABS) Enable Relay Contact Circuit

Circuit/System Description

The solenoid relay is located within the electronic brake control module (EBCM). The relay supplies battery voltage to all of the valve solenoids.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* Ignition voltage is greater than 9.5 volts.

* The solenoid relay is commanded ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

One or more of the following conditions exists:

* The EBCM detects an open in the battery positive voltage circuit to the solenoid valve relay.

* The EBCM detects a stuck open solenoid valve relay or an open circuit between the solenoid valve relay and solenoid valves.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The EBCM disables the ABS/dynamic rear proportion for the duration of the ignition cycle.

* The ABS indicator turns ON.

* The red brake warning indicator turns ON.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The condition for setting the DTC is no longer present.

* The EBCM automatically clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the EBCM.

2. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down. Test for less than 10 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 16 and ground.

• If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.

3. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminals listed below and ground.

* Terminal 1

* Terminal 32

• If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuits for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification Verification Tests after completing the diagnostic procedure.
