| Title: BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM (for HV Model): C1256; Accumulator Low Pressure; 2020 - 2022 MY Corolla Corolla HV [01/2019 - 09/2022] | ||
|
DTC |
C1256 |
Accumulator Low Pressure |
DESCRIPTION
The accumulator pressure sensor is built into the brake actuator (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) and detects the accumulator pressure.
The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) turns on the brake warning light / red (malfunction) and brake warning light / yellow (minor malfunction), and sounds the meter buzzer if it senses a decrease in the accumulator pressure.
DTC C1256 may be stored if the accumulator pressure drops due to frequent braking (this is not a malfunction).

C1256 |
Accumulator Low Pressure |
341 1125 |
Significant drop in accumulator pressure continues. (DTCs will be stored and the buzzer will operate when either condition is met.) |
|
Comes on (When only SAE code C1256 is stored) |
|
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) monitors the value of the accumulator pressure using the accumulator pressure sensor.
If any of the following conditions are met for a certain amount of time, the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) judges that the accumulator pressure is low and illuminates the MIL and stores this DTC.
- The accumulator pressure does not increase when the pump motor is operated.
- The accumulator pressure is not a specific value or more after starting the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly).
- The accumulator pressure is less than a specific value.
