Title: PARKING BRAKE: ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SYSTEM (for HV Model): C13A1; Short circuit in Power source circuit; 2020 - 2022 MY Corolla Corolla HV [01/2019 - 09/2022]

DTC

C13A1

Short circuit in Power source circuit

DESCRIPTION

C13A1 is stored if the power supply relay in the parking brake ECU assembly has a short circuit.

C13A1 is stored if the power switch is off and a voltage of 2.5 V or higher is applied to the IG terminal and an electric parking brake switch assembly malfunction or wire harness malfunction between the switch and ECU occurs.

DTC No.

C13A1

Short circuit in Power source circuit

Both of following conditions are met:

  1. Electric parking brake switch (electric parking brake switch assembly) pulled to lock side with power switch off.
  2. Parking brake ECU (brake actuator assembly) power source relay shorted for approximately 60 seconds.
  • Wire harness or connector
  • Electric parking brake switch (electric parking brake switch assembly)
  • 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.
  • After replacing the parking brake ECU (brake actuator assembly), the parking brake indicator light (red) blinks when the power switch is turned on (IG) for the first time. To turn off the parking brake indicator light (red) after replacing the parking brake ECU (brake actuator assembly), operate the electric parking brake switch to the lock side then to the release side.

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BEPB CIRCUIT)

(a) Turn the power switch off.

(b) Disconnect the A113 parking brake ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.
