Title: BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM (for HV Model): C1241; Low or High Power Supply Voltage; 2021 - 2022 MY Corolla Corolla HV [04/2020 - 09/2022]

DTC

C1241

Low or High Power Supply Voltage

DESCRIPTION

If a malfunction is detected in the power supply circuit, the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) power source voltage drops, or there is insufficient voltage to operate the main relay, the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) will store these DTCs.

If the auxiliary battery voltage is temporarily low, these DTCs may be stored.

HINT:

DTC C1256 (Accumulator Low Pressure) may also be memorized if there is a drop in power source voltage.

DTC No.
