Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The hybrid powertrain control module 2 sends the serial data wake-up power mode status in a serial data message to the electronic brake control module (EBCM). The hybrid powertrain control module 2 also powers up the serial data wake-up circuit to the EBCM when the vehicle power mode is Vehicle ON or Vehicle in Service Mode.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* Hybrid powertrain control module 2 is awake

* Vehicle power mode is Vehicle ON or Vehicle in Service Mode

* Battery energy control module is awake

* System voltage greater than 9 V

Conditions for Setting the DTC

* Hybrid powertrain control module 2 is awake

* Ignition input is active, and 500 ms after the ignition input transitions high, a voltage below 5 V is detected 3 consecutive times

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

No action is taken.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The current DTC will clear when the malfunction is no longer present.

* A history DTC clears when the module power mode cycle counter reaches the reset threshold of 40, without a repeat of the malfunction.

Diagnostic Aids

A short to voltage in the serial data wake-up circuit will keep the vehicle modules awake, which can drain the vehicle's battery.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K17 electronic brake control module.

2. Connect a test lamp between the serial data wake-up circuit terminal 12 and ground.

3. Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when cycling the S83 vehicle ON/OFF switch between Vehicle in Service Mode and Vehicle OFF.

• If the test lamp is always OFF

1. Vehicle OFF.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the serial data wake-up circuit and ground.

• If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.

• If infinite resistance.

3. Test for less than 2 ohms in the serial data wake-up circuit end to end.

• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

• If less than 2 ohms, replace the K114B hybrid powertrain control module 2.

• If the test lamp is always ON

1. Vehicle OFF.

2. Test for less than 1 V between the ignition circuit and ground.

• If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

• If less than 1 V, replace the K114B hybrid powertrain control module 2.

• If the test lamp turns ON and OFF

4. Test or replace the K17 electronic brake control module.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification Verification Tests after completing the repair.
