DTC C0273 Open in ABS Motor Relay Circuit

DTC C0274 Short in ABS Motor Relay Circuit

DTC C1361 Short in ABS Motor Fail Safe Relay Circuit


DESCRIPTION

The motor relay supplies power to the pump motor. While the brake control system is activated, the ECU turns the motor relay on and operates the pump motor.
If the voltage supplied to the motor relay (+BM) is below the DTCs detection threshold due to low voltage from the battery or alternator, these DTCs may be stored.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
  1. Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
  2. When replacing the brake actuator assembly, perform zero point calibration (RAV4_ACA30 RM000001K1O00SX.html).
HINT:
When C1241 and/or C1417 is output together with C0273, C0274 and/or C1361, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by C1241 and/or C1417 first (RAV4_ACA30 RM000000XW6048X.html or RAV4_ACA30 RM00000368W00BX.html).
1.PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (MOTOR RELAY)
  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Start the engine.

  1. Select the Active Test mode on the intelligent tester (RAV4_ACA30 RM000000ONK01EX.html).

  1. Make sure that there is no looseness in the locking part and connecting part of the connectors.

  1. Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.

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

4.RECONFIRM DTC
HINT:
This code is stored when a problem is identified in the brake actuator assembly.
The motor relay is in the brake actuator assembly.
Therefore, motor relay inspection and motor relay unit inspection cannot be performed. Be sure to check if the DTC is output before replacing the brake actuator assembly.
  1. Turn the ignition switch off.

  1. Reconnect the skid control ECU connector.

  1. Clear the DTCs (RAV4_ACA30 RM000000ONJ027X.html).

  1. Start the engine.

  1. Drive the vehicle at a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph) or more for 30 seconds or more.

  1. Check if the same DTC is output (RAV4_ACA30 RM000000ONJ027X.html).

    Result:

    Result
    Proceed to
    DTCs (C0273, C0274 and C1361) are not output.
    A
    DTCs (C0273, C0274 and/or C1361) are output.
    B
    HINT:
    1. If a speed signal of 6 km/h (4 mph) or more is input to the skid control ECU with the ignition switch ON 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 (no trouble codes are output), slightly jiggle the connectors, wire harness, and fuses of the 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 brake actuator assembly (skid control ECU), inspect and repair the connector or wire harness.
    4. It is suspected that the DTCs were output due to a bad connection of the connector terminal.
