C1082 - Vacuum Pressure Sensor Circuit






For a complete wiring diagram, refer to.

When Monitored: With the ignition ON.

Set Condition: When the anti lock brake module indicates that the vacuum pressure sensor signal is out of range.






Test Step 1 - Test for A DTC C1082 - Vacuum Pressure Sensor Circuit

This DTC must be active for the results of this test to be valid.

Turn the ignition ON.

With the scan tool, read and record the DTCs.

With the scan tool, read and record Environmental Data to help identify the conditions in which the DTC was set.

With the scan tool, erase the DTCs.

Start the engine.

Attempt to operate the vehicle under conditions similar to which the DTC was set. It may be necessary to test drive the vehicle within the DTC monitoring and set conditions in order for this DTC to set.

Depress and release the brake pedal.

With the scan tool, read and record the DTCs.

Does the scan tool display C1082 - Vacuum Pressure Sensor Circuit?

Yes

Go to Test Step 2 => [ Test Step 2 - Test the Terminals/Connectors/Wiring Harness for Damage ]

No

Perform the ABS Intermittent Condition Test. Refer to => Non-DTC Based Diagnostics. ABS Intermittent Condition Test

Test Step 2 - Test the Terminals/Connectors/Wiring Harness for Damage

Turn the ignition OFF.

Test all related wiring for bruised, chafed, pierced, or partially broken wires.

Test all related connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded terminals.

Were any problems found?

Yes

Repair as necessary.
