CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
DTC C1363 identifies a TCS motor circuit that shorts to voltage or a TCS motor that has low or no resistance. DTC C1363 will cause one of the following conditions:
^ The TCS motor cannot be controlled at the commanded current rate.
^ The TCS motor will turn in the opposite direction or the TCS motor will not turn at all.
CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
DTC C1363 can set only when the TCS motor is commanded off. A malfunction exists if the EBCM/EBTCM detects an out of range voltage on either of the right front TCS motor circuits, indicating a short to voltage or a shorted TCS motor.
ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
^ A malfunction Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) stores.
^ The TCS disables.
^ The amber TCS indicator turns on.
CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE DTC
^ The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists and the Scan Tool Clear DTCs function is used.
^ 100 drive cycles pass with no DTC(s) detected.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
The following conditions may cause an intermittent malfunction:
^ A poor connection
^ Rubbed-through wire insulation
^ A broken wire inside the insulation
If the malfunction is not current, perform the following procedure in order to identify an intermittent malfunction in the motor circuitry or connections:
1. Wiggle the wires of the affected channel.
2. Inspect to see if the DTC resets.
Use the enhanced diagnostic function of the Scan Tool in order to measure the frequency of the malfunction. Refer to the Scan Tool manual for the procedure.
Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that may cause the intermittent complaint for the following conditions:
^ Backed out terminals
^ Improper mating
^ Broken locks
^ Improperly formed or damaged terminals
^ Poor terminal-to-wiring connections
^ Physical damage to the wiring harness
