DTC C1256 Accumulator Low Pressure


DESCRIPTION

Refer to DTC C1254 (LandCruiser RM000001EA8032X_01.html).

DTC Code
DTC Detection Condition
Trouble Area
C1256
The fluid pressure inside the accumulator is below the standard value.
  1. Brake booster with accumulator pump assembly
  2. Master cylinder solenoid (Accumulator pressure sensor)
  3. Hydraulic brake booster assembly

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
When replacing the master cylinder solenoid, perform calibration (LandCruiser RM00000452J00ZX.html).
HINT:
When DTC C1251, C1253, or C1254 is output together with DTC C1256 inspect and repair the trouble area indicated by DTC C1251, C1253, or C1254 first.
1.RECONFIRM DTC
  1. Clear the DTCs (LandCruiser RM0000046KV016X.html).

  1. Turn the ignition switch off.

  1. Depress the brake pedal 20 times or more.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

  1. Wait for 99 seconds.

  1. Check if the same DTC is output (LandCruiser RM0000046KV016X.html).

2.INSPECT HYDRAULIC BRAKE BOOSTER ASSEMBLY FUNCTION
  1. Inspect brake booster pump power supply system function.

    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Depress the brake pedal 20 times or more to release the pressure in the accumulator.

      HINT:
      When the pressure is released, the brake pedal stroke becomes longer.
    3. Check that the brake fluid level is at the MAX level.

    4. Chock the 4 wheels and release the parking brake.

    5. Turn the ignition switch to ON and measure the brake booster pump operating time (the time from when the brake booster pump starts operating until it stops).

      OK:
      20 to 80 seconds
    6. Start the engine after the brake boost pump stops.

    7. Check that the ABS warning light and slip indicator light are not illuminated.

    8. Turn off the engine, and then turn the ignition switch to ON.

    9. Check that the brake boost pump operates and then stops when the brake pedal is depressed 4 or 5 times.

    10. Depress the brake pedal 4 or 5 times and measure the brake booster pump operating time (the time from when the brake booster pump starts operating until it stops).

      OK:
      2 to 11 seconds
    11. Check that the brake warning light illuminates and the buzzer sounds when the brake pedal is fully depressed continuously 15 to 20 times.

      NOTICE:
      Wait 120 seconds or more after turning the ignition switch to ON before performing this inspection.
  1. Check brake booster operation.

    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Depress the brake pedal 20 times or more to release the pressure in the accumulator.

      HINT:
      When the pressure is released, the brake pedal stroke becomes longer.
    3. Depress the brake pedal, start the engine, and check the change in the brake pedal height.

      OK:
      The brake pedal moves slightly inward.
  1. Inspect brake master cylinder fluid pressure change (for LHD: LandCruiser RM00000171W034X_01_0001.html, for RHD: LandCruiser RM00000171W035X_01_0001.html).

3.READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (ACCUMULATOR SENSOR)
  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

  1. Turn the intelligent tester on.

  1. Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRC / Data List.


ABS/VSC/TRC
Tester Display
Measurement Item/Range
Normal Condition
Diagnostic Note
Accumulator Sensor
Accumulator pressure sensor reading/ Min.: 0.00 V, Max.: 5.00 V
3.58 to 5 V
If the value is constant regardless of the pump operation, an accumulator pressure sensor malfunction is suspected.
  1. Check that the accumulator output value is normal.

    OK:
    Accumulator pressure sensor value is normal.
