DTC C2001: Abnormality in wheel fluid pressure sensor output signal
CAUTION:
- If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview ).
- Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus lines are normal.
- When the hydraulic unit (integrated with ASC-ECU) is replaced, always perform the calibration of steering wheel sensor, G and yaw rate sensor, brake fluid pressure sensor, cut valve, and inlet valve (Refer to G and Yaw Rate Sensor Calibration , Testing and Inspection , Master Cylinder Brake Fluid Pressure Sensor Calibration , and Testing and Inspection ).
CIRCUIT OPERATION
- The wheel cylinder pressure sensor is integrated into the hydraulic unit. It converts the signal of brake fluid pressure in wheel cylinder of each wheel to the voltage value, then outputs the value to ASC-ECU.
- The wheel cylinder pressure sensor contains the following two signal output sections: Fluid pressure signal output section and fluid pressure and temperature signal output section.
DTC SET CONDITIONS
This diagnostic trouble codes will be set under the cases below:
- The pressure sensor offset is outside the specified range. (Pressure is generated at all times)
- The estimated pressure sensor temperature is not normal.
PROBABLE CAUSES
- Damaged wiring harness and connectors
- Incorrect adjustment of brake pedal height
- Master cylinder malfunction
- Brake booster malfunction
- Incorrect installation position of stoplight switch
- Malfunction of the stoplight switch
- Brake drag
- Malfunction of the ASC-ECU
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
- MB991958 Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)
- MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)
- MB991827 M.U.T.-III USB Cable
- MB991910 M.U.T.-III Main Harness A
- MB991997: ASC check harness
STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
Q. Is the check result normal?
YES Go to Step 3.
NO Repair the CAN bus lines CAN Bus Diagnostics Chart).
After repairing the CAN bus line, go to Step 2.
STEP 2. DTC recheck after repairing the CAN bus line
Q. Is DTC C2001 set?
YES Go to Step 3.
NO This diagnosis is complete.
STEP 3. Check for diagnostic trouble codes of other systems
Check if the diagnostic trouble code No. C121E is set in ASC-ECU.
Q. Is the check result normal?
YES Go to Step 4.
NO Carry out the diagnosis for the diagnostic trouble code No. C121E (Refer to C121E).
STEP 4. Scan tool data list
Check the following data list (Refer to Data List Reference Table).
- Item 129: FL wheel cylinder pressure
- Item 130: FR wheel cylinder pressure
- Item 131: RL wheel cylinder pressure
- Item 132: RR wheel cylinder pressure
Q. Is the check result normal?
YES Go to Step 5.
NO Go to Step 10.
STEP 5. Brake drag check
Check the brake drag force Brake Drag Force Check).
Q. Is the check result normal?
YES Go to Step 6.
NO Adjust the brake drag, and then go to Step 11.
STEP 6. Brake pedal check
Brake Pedal Inspection.
Q. Is the check result normal?
YES Go to Step 7.
NO Adjust the brake pedal height to the standard value Brake Pedal Inspection). Then go to Step 11.
STEP 7. Check for stoplight switch installation
Brake Pedal Inspection.
Q. Is the check result normal?
YES Go to Step 8.
NO Install the stoplight switch correctly Brake Pedal Inspection). Then go to Step 11.
STEP 8. Stoplight switch continuity check
(1)Remove the stoplight switch Service and Repair).
(2)Connect the circuit tester (ohms range) to the stoplight switch connector terminal Nos. 1 and 2.
(3)When continuity does not exist with the plunger pressed from the outer case end face by the dimension shown in the figure, and when continuity exists with the plunger released, the switch is in good condition.
Q. Is the check result normal?
YES Go to Step 9.
NO Replace the stoplight switch Service and Repair).
Then go to Step 11.
STEP 9. Brake booster check
Testing and Inspection.
Q. Is the check result normal?
YES Go to Step 10.
NO Replace the brake booster Service and Repair). Then go to Step 11.
STEP 10. Check whether the DTC is reset.
Erase the DTC.
Q. Is DTC C2001 set?
YES Replace the hydraulic unit (integrated with ASC-ECU) (Refer to Service and Repair).
Then go to Step 11.
NO Intermittent malfunction How to Cope With Intermittent Malfunctions).
STEP 11. Check whether the DTC is reset.
Erase the DTC.
Q. Is DTC C2001 set?
YES Return to Step 1.
NO The procedure is complete.
