DTC

C13A2

Engine Switch/Power Switch Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

When the power switch is turned on (IG), power is supplied to the parking brake ECU (brake actuator assembly). This DTC is stored if IG power source voltage is not supplied to the parking brake ECU (brake actuator assembly) when communication with other ECUs is established.

DTC No.

C13A2

Engine Switch/Power Switch Malfunction

Both of following conditions are met:

  1. Power switch on (IG)
  2. When hybrid vehicle control ECU communicates with main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) via CAN communication, IG power supply voltage is not received for approximately 15 seconds.
  • Wire harness or connector
  • IG power source circuit
  • Parking brake ECU (brake actuator assembly)

DTC stored

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

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
  • 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.
  • The parking brake indicator light blinks (red) when the power switch is turned on (IG) after replacing the parking brake ECU (brake actuator assembly). Operate the electric parking brake switch (electric parking brake switch assembly) to turn off the parking brake indicator light (red).

PROCEDURE

1.

READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (IG SWITCH)

(a) Turn the power switch off.

(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(c) Turn the power switch on (IG).

(d) Turn the Techstream on.

(e) Enter the following menus: Chassis / Electric Parking Brake / Data List.

(f) Read the Data List according to the display on the Techstream.
