DTC C1361/91 Short Circuit in ABS Motor Fail Safe Relay Circuit

Description

If a DTC of the motor line is stored, the ABS MOTOR1 (fail safe) relay cuts off the power supply to the ABS MOTOR2 relay and performs fail safe. While any of the ABS, TRC, VSC, or BA is operating, the skid control ECU (housed in the actuator assembly) turns the ABS MOTOR2 relay on and activates the pump motor in the brake actuator. This code may be stored if the motor relay (+BM) voltage becomes lower than the DTC detecting condition due to insufficient output from the battery or alternator.

10.RECONFIRM DTC
  1. Clear the DTC .

  1. Start the engine.

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

  1. Check if the same DTC is recorded .

HINT:

Reinstall the relays, connectors, etc. and restore the vehicle to the condition before rechecking for DTCs.

 

Result:

Condition Proceed to
DTCs (C0273/13, C0274/14 and/or C1361/91) are not output A
DTCs (C0273/13, C0274/14 and/or C1361/91) are output B

HINT:

  1. 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.
  2. If the normal system code is output (the trouble code is not output), slightly jiggle the connectors, wire harness, and fuses of the skid control ECU and brake actuator assembly. Make sure that no DTCs are output.
  3. 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.
