ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C13A4/32, C13AC/34

DTC Code DTC Name
C13A4/32 Open or Short in Release Switch Circuit
C13AC/34 Release Switch Circuit

DESCRIPTION

When the electric parking brake switch assembly is pulled to the release side, a release request signal is output to the parking brake ECU assembly.

DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area Memory Note
C13A4/32 Open or Short in Release Switch Circuit

All of following conditions are met:


  1. Power switch on (IG) or electric parking brake switch assembly pulled to release side with power switch off.

  2. Terminal REL1 voltage is less than 1.4 V* or more than 9 V*; or terminal REL2 voltage is less than 1.4 V* or more than 9 V*.

  3. Problem occurs for approximately 1 second.

Tech Tips

*: This value is based on the assumption that the BECU terminal voltage is 11 V.

The threshold changes according to the BECU terminal voltage.

For details, refer to "Threshold Changes According to BECU Terminal Voltage".

  • Electric parking brake switch assembly

  • Wire harness or connector

  • Parking brake ECU assembly

 Yes An electric parking brake system malfunction is displayed on the multi-information display.
C13AC/34 Release Switch Circuit

Both of following conditions are met:


  1. Power switch on (IG) or electric parking brake switch assembly pulled to release side with power switch off.

  2. ON/OFF judgment of release switch 1 and release switch 2 does not match for approximately 1 second.

  • Electric parking brake switch assembly

  • Wire harness or connector

  • Parking brake ECU assembly

 Yes An electric parking brake system malfunction is displayed on the multi-information display.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • The electric parking brake may still operate up to 20 seconds after the power switch is turned off. Before disconnecting connectors or fuses, turn the power switch off and wait 20 seconds or more.

  • When the electric parking brake switch assembly is pulled and held for 1 second or more without being pulled fully to the release side, one of the 2 linked contacts may turn on while the other one turns off causing this DTC to be stored.

  • If the parking brake ECU assembly is replaced, perform the "Reset Memory" and "Acquire Tension Sensor Zero Point" procedures.

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PARKING BRAKE ECU ASSEMBLY - ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH ASSEMBLY)


    1. Turn the power switch off.

    2. Disconnect the P36 electric parking brake switch assembly connector.

    3. Disconnect the X67 parking brake ECU assembly connector.

    4. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      X67-16 (REL1) - P36-8 (RLS1) Always Below 5 Ω
      X67-13 (REL2) - P36-9 (RLS2) Always Below 5 Ω
      X67-16 (REL1) or P36-8 (RLS1) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      X67-13 (REL2) or P36-9 (RLS2) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      P36-14 (GND1) - Body ground Always Below 5 Ω

      Chassis > Electric Parking Brake > Clear DTCs

    2. Turn the power switch off.

    3. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    4. Perform a release operation with the electric parking brake switch assembly.

      Tech Tips

      When the electric parking brake switch assembly is pulled and held for 1 second or more without being pulled fully to the release side, one of the 2 linked contacts may turn on while the other one turns off causing this DTC to be stored.
