Circuit Description

The Outlet valve solenoid circuits are supplied with battery power when the ignition is in the ON position. The EBTCM controls the valve functions by grounding the circuit when necessary.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The EBTCM senses a discrepancy such as an open, short to ground, or short to voltage in the circuit.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

ABS/TCS/Active Handling (if equipped with RPO JL4) are disabled.

    • Indicators that turn on:
       - ABS indicator
       - Car Icon (TCS indicator)
    • Messages displayed on the DIC:
       - Service ABS
       - Service Traction System
       - Service Active HNDLG (if equipped with Active Handling RPO JL4)

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • Condition for DTC is no longer present and scan tool clear DTC function is used.
    • Fifty ignition cycles have passed with no DTCs detected.

Diagnostic Aids

Make sure the integrity of the connection between the EBTCM and the BPMV is secure, tight, and free from corrosion.

Test Description

The numbers below refer to step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. Checks the resistance value of the solenoid.

  2. Checks for a short to ground in the BPMV.

  3. Checks for an internal short to voltage.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
  2. Disconnect the EBTCM connector.
  3. Remove the EBTCM from the BPMV.
  4. Inspect the EBTCM to BPMV connector for conditions which could cause intermittents such as damage, corrosion, or poor terminal contact.

Are internal connectors OK and cavity free of brake fluid?

  1. Install J 41247 BPMV Pinout Box to the BPMV connector.
  2. Using J 39200 DMM, measure the resistance between J 41247 terminals 9 and 7.

Is the resistance within the range specified in the value(s) column?
