C2380

DTC C2380 ABS ESC VALVE MALFUNCTION

COMPONENT LOCATION:





GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ABS HECU is composed of a ECU (Electronic Control Unit and an HCU (Hydraulic Control Unit), so the HECU hardware includes all solenoid valves inside the unit as well as the ECU.
Solenoid valves are switched to ON, OFF by HECU when the ABS is activated. Solenoid valves function is to increase, decrease or maintain the hydraulic pressure supplied to a wheel cylinder.

DTC DESCRIPTION
The HECU monitors the operation of the valves by checking the drive circuit of the solenoid valves, and then sets this code when the unexpected drive voltage is detected.
For example, the HECU sets the DTC if an unexpected high drive voltage is detected when the valve relay is switched to OFF. (or unexpected low voltage is detected when the solenoid valve drive TR is switched to ON)

DTC DETECTING CONDITION:




SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM:





MONITOR ACTUATION TEST
1. Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC)
2. Ignition "ON" Engine "OFF".
3. Select the "Actuation Test" mode on the scan tool.
4. Inspect operating status of all valves with Actuation Test.





5. Do all valves operate normally?
YES
Fault is intermittent caused by poor connection in power harness (ABS2) and/or HECU's connector or was repaired and HECU memory was not cleared.
Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
Repair or replace as necessary and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
NO
Go to "Terminal and Connector Inspection" procedure.

TERMINAL AND CONNECTOR INSPECTION
1. Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness (es) and terminal condition. Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.
2. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
3. Has a problem been found'?
YES
Repair as necessary and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
NO
Substitute with a known-good HECU and check for proper operation.
If problem is corrected, replace HECU and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR
After a repair, it is essential to verify that the fault has been corrected.
1. Connect scan tool and select "Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)" mode
2. Using a scan tool, Clear DTC.
3. Operate the vehicle within DTC Detecting Condition in General Information. (Start and drive vehicle in gear and maintain vehicle speed at or above 40kmh. (24mph))
4. Using a scan tool, Check DTC present.
5. Are any DTCs present
YES
Go to the applicable troubleshooting procedure.
NO
System performing to specification at this time.
