Title: BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM (for Gasoline Model without Electric Parking Brake System TMC Made): C137BA2; Brake System Control Module "A" System Voltage System Voltage Low; 2023 - 2025 MY Corolla Corolla Hatchback GR Corolla [09/2022 -        ]

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 operation of ABS, brake assist, etc.

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 battery or alternator circuit, etc.

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

DTC No.

Detection Item

DTC Detection Condition

Trouble Area

C137BA2

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

Any of the following is detected:

  • When the +BS terminal voltage is below 9.5 V, the power source voltage for all speed sensors is continuously low for 60 seconds or more.
  • After the +BS terminal voltage is below 9.5 V continuously for 3 seconds or more, the +BS terminal voltage is below 9.5 V continuously for 7 seconds or more at a vehicle speed exceeding 3 km/h (2 mph).
  • When the +BS terminal voltage is 9.5 V or higher and the vehicle speed exceeds 15 km/h (9 mph), the IGR terminal voltage is 10 V or less continuously for 60 seconds or more.
  • When the +BS terminal voltage is below 9.5 V and the solenoid relay is ON, the relay contact is OFF continuously for 1.22 seconds or more.
  • When the +BS terminal voltage is below 9.5 V, motor fail-safe relay overcurrent continues for 1.05 seconds or more.
  • Wire harness and connector
  • Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)
