C0115



DTC C0113-C0115

Circuit Description

The system relay is energized when the ignition is ON. The system relay supplies voltage to the solenoid valves and the pump motor. This voltage is referred to as the system voltage.

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) controls each solenoid valve by grounding the solenoid.

The EBCM controls the pump motor by grounding the control circuit. The pump serves 2 purposes:

* Transfers brake fluid from the brake calipers to the master cylinder reservoir during pressure decrease events.
* Transfers brake fluid from the master cylinder reservoir to the brake calipers during pressure increase events.

DTC Descriptors

This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTCs:

* DTC C0113 Pump Motor Circuit High
* DTC C0114 Pump Motor Circuit Open
* DTC C0115 Pump Motor Performance

Conditions for Running the DTC

* The pump motor is commanded ON.
* The system voltage is greater than 8 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

One of the following conditions exists for 0.5 seconds:

* With the commanded pump motor voltage less than the system voltage, the actual pump motor voltage is 3 volts less than the commanded voltage.
* With the commanded pump motor voltage greater than the system voltage, the actual pump motor voltage is less than 8 volts.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

If equipped, the following actions occur:

* The EBCM disables the ABS/TCS/VSES for the duration of the ignition cycle.
* The DRP does not function optimally.
* The ABS indicator turns ON.
* The Traction Control indicator turns ON.
* The DIC displays the Service Stability System message.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The condition for the DTC is no longer present and the DTC is cleared with a scan tool.
* The EBCM automatically clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles.

Diagnostic Aids

The pump motor is integral to the BPMV. The pump motor is not serviceable.

Test Description

The number below refers to the step number on the diagnostic table.
5. This step tests the ability of the EBCM to control the pump motor. If the test lamp illuminates, the pump motor circuit within the EBCM is good.
