Diagnostic Fault Information

Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure. Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview

Circuit/System Description

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) monitors the system voltage to make sure that the voltage stays within the proper range. Damage to components, and incorrect data input can occur when the voltage is out of range. The EBCM monitors the system voltage over an extended length of time. If the EBCM detects a system voltage outside an expected range, DTC C0800 will set.

Conditions for Running the DTC

C0800 03

* Ignition is in RUN.
* The system relay is commanded ON.

C0800 07

* Ignition is in RUN.
* The vehicle speed is greater than 8 km/h (5 mph).

Conditions for Setting the DTC

C0800 03

* During initialization or when the system is inactive, the system voltage is less than 10.5 volts.
* During the system operation, the system voltage is less than 9 volts.

C0800 07

* Ignition is in RUN.
* The system voltage is greater than 17 volts.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The EBCM disables the ABS and dynamic rear proportion (DRP) is degraded when the code is current.
* The ABS indicator turns ON.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

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

Diagnostic Aids

C0800 03

* Test the charging system
* Possible causes of this DTC are the following conditions:
* A charging system malfunction
* An excessive battery draw
* A weak battery
* A faulty system ground

C0800 07

* Test the charging system
* A possible cause of this DTC is overcharging.

Circuit/System Verification

With the scan tool installed, ignition ON and the engine OFF, observe the Battery Positive Voltage parameter in the EBCM data list. The reading should be between 9-17 volts.

Circuit/System Testing

1. If the DTC is history, refer to Charging System Test. Charging System Test
2. If the DTC is current, turn ON the ignition, and with a DMM, measure the voltage between the battery positive voltage circuits of the EBCM and the ground circuit.

• If the voltage is within 9-17 volts, replace the affected module.
• If the voltage is not within 9-17 volts, measure the voltage between the battery positive voltage circuits of the EBCM and a separate good ground.
• If the voltage is within 9-17 volts, test the battery positive ground circuits of the EBCM for high resistance or an open, and repair as necessary.
