DTC Descriptors

DTC C0274 54
- Isolation Valve High Temperature

DTC C0275 54
- Dump Valve High Temperature

DTC C0280 54
- Stability System Active Too Long

Circuit/System Description

The solenoid valves are integral parts of the Brake Pressure Modulator. The Brake Pressure Modulator contains an Isolation Solenoid Valve and a Dump Solenoid Valve for each wheel. A Traction/stability Control Supply Solenoid Valve and a Isolation Solenoid Valve for each brake circuit. The Solenoid Valves are not engaged during normal system operation. When the ABS, traction control or stability control operation is required the Electronic Brake Control Module turns the required solenoid ON.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition ON

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The calculated Solenoid Valve temperature is greater than the threshold.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

C0274 54 or C0275 54

* The ABS indicator turns ON.

* The Traction/stability Control indicator turns ON.

* The Electronic Brake Control Module disables the ABS, the traction control, the stability control and the Hill Start Assist for the duration of the ignition cycle.

C0280 54

* The Traction/stability Control indicator turns ON.

* The Electronic Brake Control Module disables the stability control for the duration of the ignition cycle.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The condition for setting the DTC is no longer present.

Circuit/System Verification

Note: Since most occurrences of this DTC are caused by excessive ABS or traction control usage, review with the customer the conditions under which the DTC set.

1. Ignition ON.

2. Verify that DTC C0187, C018B, C0196, C019B, or C0710 is not set.

• If any of the DTCs are set
Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.

• If none of the DTCs are set

3. Ignition OFF, allow the hydraulic brake pressure modulator to cool down to ambient temperature.

4. Ignition ON.

5. Verify that DTC C0274 54, C0275 54, or C0280 54 are not set while driving the vehicle within normal braking conditions.

• If any of the DTCs are set
Replace the K17 Electronic Brake Control Module with Brake Pressure Modulator.

• If none of the DTCs are set

6. All OK.
