DTC

C117A49

Brake System Control Module "A" System Voltage Line Internal Electronic Failure

DTC

C137BA2

Brake System Control Module "A" System Voltage System Voltage Low

DESCRIPTION

If a malfunction is detected in the power supply circuit, the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) stores this DTC and the fail-safe function prohibits ABS, brake assist, regenerative braking, etc. operation.

This DTC is stored when the +BS terminal voltage meets one of the DTC detection conditions due to a malfunction in the power supply or charging circuit such as the auxiliary battery or DC/DC converter circuit, etc.

The DTC is cleared when the +BS terminal voltage returns to normal.

DTC No.

Brake System Control Module "A" System Voltage Line Internal Electronic Failure

The vehicle speed is 15 km/h (9 mph) or more and the +BS terminal voltage is 9.6 V or more, the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) turns on more than one valve at the same time within a short period of time and the valve relay supply voltage drop exceeds the threshold.*

C137BA2

Brake System Control Module "A" System Voltage System Voltage Low

Any of the following is detected:

  1. The vehicle speed is 6 km/h (4 mph) or more and the +BS terminal voltage (soft low voltage) is less than 9.6 V for 1 second or more.
  2. The vehicle speed is 6 km/h (4 mph) or more and the +BS terminal voltage (hard low voltage) is less than 6.9 V for 1 second or more.
  3. The +BS terminal voltage is less than 6.7 V and the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) judges that power supply voltage is abnormal for 0.06 seconds or more.
  4. When the system has started, the +BS terminal voltage is less than 5 V for 0.5 seconds or more.
  5. The +BS terminal voltage is less than 2.6 V for 0.2 seconds or more.
  • Wire harness or connector
  • Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)

Brake/EPB

Output ECU: Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)

*: The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) monitors the resistance of the power source line at the +BS terminal. A malfunction is detected when an abnormality occurs in the +BS terminal wire harness or its connection and the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) determines that the wiring resistance at the +BS terminal exceeds the standard resistance.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

When the vehicle speed is more than a certain value, the supply voltage of the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) is a certain value or more, the brake pedal is not depressed, and the resistance of the solenoid supply voltage line exceeds a certain value a certain number of times, the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) illuminates the MIL and stores this DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

NOTICE:

When performing the normal judgment procedure, make sure that the driver door is closed and is not opened at any time during the procedure.

HINT:

  • After repair has been completed, clear the DTC and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.
  • When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the "CLEAR PERMANENT DTC" procedure.
  1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
  3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  4. Turn the ignition switch off.
  5. Turn the ignition switch to ON (READY) and turn the GTS on.
  6. Drive the vehicle at 15 km/h (9 mph) or more for 1 second. [*]

    HINT:

    [*]: Normal judgment procedure.

    The normal judgment procedure is used to complete DTC judgment and also used when clearing permanent DTCs.

  7. Enter the following menus: Chassis / Brake/EPB* / Utility / All Readiness.

    *: Electric Parking Brake System

  8. Check the DTC judgment result.

    HINT:

    • If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
    • If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
    • If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE, perform driving pattern again.
