Inspect opearating status of inlet valve (FL, FR, RL, RR) with Actuation Test.
Specification : It's normal if operating sound is heard.
The HECU is composed of an 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 hydralic pressure supplied to a brake caliper.
The HECU monitors the operation of the valves by checking the drive circuit of the solenid valves, and then sets this code when the unexpcted drive voltage is detected. For example, the HECU sets the DTC if the electrical feedback signal does not match the actuation signal for the corresponding valve.
Item | Detecting Condition | Possible cause | |
DTC Strategy | ● Voltage monitoring | ● Faulty HECU | |
Case 1 | Monitoring Period | ● Continuous | |
Enable Conditions | ● The electrical feedback signal does not match the actuation signal for the corresponding valve for more than 30 ms. - Current controlled valves and under voltage conditions :detection time is 80 ms | ||
Case 2 | Monitoring Period | ● Immediately after power on ● every 20 s - The Test is canceled if any control, valve actuation takes place or if the Vehicle is in motion and the BLS is on. | |
Enable Conditions | ● A Fault is found if valve relay voltage is not within 0.1*battery voltage < valve relay voltage ＜ 0.8*battery voltage when valve relay is switched off. ● A Fault is found if valve relay voltage ≥ 0.2*battery voltage after that all valves are switched on sequential. - After that all valves are switched on sequential, valve relay voltage and valve feedback is measured. | ||
Case 3 | Monitoring Period | ● The Valve and Pump motor Test is performed once after ignition on if vehicle speed is ＞= 15 km/h. | |
Enable Conditions | ● The valve and pump motor test detects electrical actuation malfunction of ABS valves. The test actuates all valves in series (to detect short cuts or shunts between the valve lines). Faults are detected if there is an error during the test. | ||
Fail Safe | ● Valve cannot be actuated or valve is incorrectly actuated. This may result in locked wheels or wheels without pressure. ● ABS/EBD/ESP function is prohibited. ● ABS/EBD/ESP warning lamp is turned ON. | ||
Connect scantool to Data Link Connector(DLC)
Ignition "ON" ＆ Engine "OFF".
Select the "Actuation Test" mode on the scantool.
Inspect opearating status of inlet valve (FL, FR, RL, RR) with Actuation Test.
Specification : It's normal if operating sound is heard.
Does a inlet valve (FL, FR, RL, RR) operate normally?
▶ 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.
▶ Go to "Terminal and Connector Inspection Inspection" procedure.
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.
Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
Has a problem been found?
▶ Repair as necessary and then go to "Verification Of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
▶ 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.
After a repair, it is essential to verify that the fault has been corrected.
Connect scantool and select "Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)" mode
Using a scantool, Clear DTC.
Operate the vehicle within DTC Detecting Condition in General Information. (Start and drive vehicle in gear and maintain vehicle speed at or above 15km/h. (9mph)
Are any DTCs present?
▶ Go to the applicable troubleshooting procedure.
▶ System performing to specification at this time.
