C1361

Short in ABS Motor Fail Safe Relay Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The ABS motor relay supplies power to the ABS pump motor. While the ABS is activated, the ECU turns the motor relay on and operates the ABS pump motor.

If the voltage supplied to the motor relay (BM) is below the DTCs detection threshold due to low voltage from the battery or alternator, these DTCs may be stored.

    • Relay contact remains open when the relay is ON.
  • Fusible link block (VSC NO. 1 fuse)
  • ABS motor relay circuit
  • Brake actuator assembly (ABS motor relay)

C0274

When the motor relay is OFF, the motor relay remains closed for 4 seconds or more.

  • ABS motor relay circuit
  • Brake actuator assembly (ABS motor relay)

C1361

Immediately after the ignition switch is turned to ON, the relay contact is closed for 4 seconds when the motor fail safe relay is OFF.

  • Fusible link block (VSC NO. 1 fuse)
  • ABS motor fail safe relay circuit
  • Brake actuator assembly (ABS motor fail safe relay)

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • When replacing the brake actuator assembly, perform zero point calibration and store system information (See page 2016 - 2017 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 11/2017]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: CALIBRATION ).
  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

HINT:

When DTC C1241 and/or C1417 is output together with DTC C0273, C0274 and/or C1361, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by DTC C1241 and/or C1417 first (See page 2016 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 08/2016]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: C1241; Low Power Supply Voltage Malfunction 2017 MY Sienna [08/2016 - 11/2017]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: C1241; Low Power Supply Voltage Malfunction , or 2016 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 08/2016]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: C1417; High Power Supply Voltage Malfunction 2017 MY Sienna [08/2016 - 11/2017]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: C1417; High Power Supply Voltage Malfunction ).

PROCEDURE

1.

PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (ABS MOTOR RELAY)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Start the engine.

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/ TRAC / Active Test.

(e) Select the Active Test on the Techstream (See page 2016 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 08/2016]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST 2017 MY Sienna [08/2016 - 11/2017]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST ).

RECONFIRM DTC

HINT:

This code is detected when a problem is identified in the brake actuator assembly.

The ABS motor relay is in the brake actuator assembly.

Therefore, ABS motor relay inspection and motor relay unit inspection cannot be performed. Be sure to check if the DTC is output before replacing the brake actuator assembly.

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.

(b) Reconnect the skid control ECU connector.

(c) Clear the DTCs (See page 2016 - 2017 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 11/2017]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).

(d) Start the engine.

(e) Drive the vehicle at a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph) or more for 30 seconds or more.

(f) Check if the same DTC is recorded (See page 2016 - 2017 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 11/2017]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).

Result

Result

Proceed to

DTCs (C0273, C0274 and C1361) are not output

A

DTCs (C0273, C0274 and/or C1361) are output

B

HINT:

  • If a speed signal of 6 km/h (4 mph) or more is input to the skid control ECU with the ignition switch to ON and the stop light switch off, the ECU performs self diagnosis of the motor and solenoid circuits.
  • If the normal system code is output (no trouble codes are output), slightly jiggle the connectors, wire harness, and fuses of the brake actuator assembly. Make sure that no DTCs are output.
  • If any DTCs are output while jiggling a connector or wire harness of the brake actuator assembly (skid control ECU), inspect and repair the connector or wire harness.
  • The DTCs were possibly output due to a bad connection of the connector terminal.
