P1380
Circuit Description
This diagnostic DTC is used to determine when the Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) has lost the ability to provide rough road data to the Control Module (PCM/VCM) for misfire detection (DTC P0300). When the Control Module detects this condition on the Class 2 serial data circuit, this DTC will be set.
Conditions for Running the DTC
^ The vehicle speed is more than 1 mph (2 km/h).
^ The engine speed is less than 5,800 RPM.
^ The engine load is less than 89%.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The VCM determines that the ABS system is unable to detect a rough road condition.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will not be illuminated. A history DTC is stored.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
^ A history DTC will clear if no fault conditions have been detected for 40 warm-up cycles.
^ A warm-up cycle occurs when the coolant temperature has risen 22°C (40°F) from the start-up coolant temperature and the engine coolant temperature exceeds 70°C (160°F) during the same ignition cycle.
^ Use the scan tool Clear Information function.
Diagnostic Aids
Check for the following conditions:
An intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:
^ A poor connection.
^ Rubbed through wire insulation.
^ A broken wire inside the insulation.
Thoroughly check any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Intermittents and Poor Connections Diagnosis in Symptoms. Intermittent Conditions
