Circuit Description
Voltage is applied to the normally open inlet valves whenever the main relay is energized.
An inlet valve closes when the EBCM/EBTCM supplies a ground path at the inlet valve control terminal.
The EBCM/EBTCM closes an inlet valve for short periods in order to maintain (hold) or reduce pressure at a particular wheel.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The DTC C1241 sets when the EBCM/EBTCM detects an open or short to ground in the RF inlet valve circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The following actions are taken when the DTC sets:
| • | A malfunction DTC is stored |
| • | The ABS is disabled |
| • | The ANTILOCK indicator lamp is turned ON. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
The DTC will be cleared under following conditions:
| • | Conditions for the malfunction are no longer present. Use the scan tool clear DTCs function. |
| • | 100 ignition switch key cycles have passed with no malfunctions detected |
Diagnostic Aids
Perform a thorough inspection of the wiring and the connectors.
Failure to carefully inspect wiring may result in misdiagnosis. Misdiagnosis may result in part replacement with the reappearance of the malfunction.
