CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - ENGINE ROOM NO. 3 RELAY BLOCK)

RECONFIRM DTC

DTC C0278/11 Open in ABS Solenoid Relay Circuit

DTC C0279/12 Short to B+ in ABS Solenoid Relay Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The ABS solenoid relay supplies power to the ABS solenoid and TRC solenoid.


The solenoid relay is turned on 1.5 seconds after the engine switch is turned on (IG), and is turned off if an open or short in the solenoid is detected by self diagnosis performed when the vehicle starts running.


  • HINT:
  • If a speed signal of 4 mph (6 km/h) or more is input to the skid control ECU, with the engine switch on (IG) and the stop light switch off, the ECU performs self diagnosis of the motor and solenoid circuits.

    ABS SOL relay terminal 3 - Body groundAlways10 to 14 V
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)
OK
4.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - ENGINE ROOM NO. 3 RELAY BLOCK)
Dtc C0278/11  Open In Abs Solenoid Relay Circuit. BRAKE CONTROL. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

Disconnect the skid control ECU connectors.

Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

  • Standard resistance:
  • LHD:
  • Tester ConnectionConditionSpecified Condition
    A35-11 (R+) - ABS SOL relay terminal 1AlwaysBelow 1 Ω
    A35-11 (R+) - Body groundAlways10 kΩ or higher
    J78-2 (SR) - ABS SOL relay terminal 2AlwaysBelow 1 Ω
    J78-2 (SR) - Body groundAlways10 kΩ or higher

    J78-13 (AST) - Body groundAlways10 kΩ or higher
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK
5.RECONFIRM DTC

Install the ABS SOL relay.

Reconnect the skid control ECU connectors.

Clear the DTC .

Start the engine.

Drive the vehicle at the speed of 4 mph (6 km/h) or more.

Check if the same DTC is recorded .

  • Result:
  • ConditionProceed to
    DTCs (C0278/11 and/or C0279/12) are not outputA
    DTCs (C0278/11 and/or C0279/12) are outputB
  • HINT:
If a speed signal of 4 mph (6 km/h) or more is input to the skid control ECU, with the engine switch on (IG) and the stop light switch off, the ECU performs self diagnosis of the motor and solenoid circuits.
If the normal system code is output (the trouble code is not output), slightly jiggle the connectors, wire harnesses, and fuses of the skid control ECU and brake actuator assembly. Make sure that no DTCs are output.
If any DTCs are output while jiggling a connector or wire harness of the skid control ECU and brake actuator assembly, inspect and repair the connector or wire harness.
