VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C1241

DTC Code DTC Name
C1241 Low Power Supply Voltage Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

If a malfunction is detected in the power supply circuit, the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) stores this DTC and the fail-safe function prohibits ABS operation.

This DTC is stored when the IG1 terminal voltage deviates from the DTC detection condition due to a malfunction in the power supply or charging circuit such as the battery or alternator circuit, etc.

The DTC is cleared when the IG1 terminal voltage returns to normal.

DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
C1241 Low Power Supply Voltage Malfunction

Any of the following is detected:


  1. At a vehicle speed of 3 km/h (2 mph) or more, the IG1 terminal voltage is less than 9.5 V for 10 seconds or more.

  2. When the ABS solenoid relay remains on and the IG1 terminal voltage is less than 9.5 V, the relay contact is open for 0.22 seconds or more.

  3. With the IG1 terminal voltage 9.5 V or less, the vehicle speed sensor power supply decreases for 60 seconds or more.

  4. When the ABS motor fail-safe relay is on after the ABS motor relay turns on, the IG1 terminal voltage is 9.5 V or less and the actuator pump drive motor is off for 0.2 seconds or more.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK BATTERY


    1. Check the battery voltage.

      Standard voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      Battery Always 11 to 14 V

      Front view of wire harness connector

      (to Skid Control ECU (Brake Actuator Assembly))

      Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.

    2. Disconnect the A15 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.

    3. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

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

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A15-34 (IG1) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V
      A15-34 (IG1) - A15-1 (GND1) Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V
      Result
      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    NG
    OK
  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (GND1 TERMINAL)


    1. A01MV8BC26
      *a

      Front view of wire harness connector

      (to Skid Control ECU (Brake Actuator Assembly))

      Turn the engine switch off.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A15-1 (GND1) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      Result
      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    NG
    OK
  4. RECONFIRM DTC


    1. Reconnect the A15 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.

    2. Clear the DTCs.
