DTC C1244:






CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Voltage is applied to the normally open isolation valves whenever the main relay is energized.

An isolation valve closes when the Electronic Brakes and Traction Control Module (EBTCM) supplies a ground path at the isolation valve control terminal.

The isolation valves are closed only during traction control operations. The isolation valves are not used during antilock or normal braking conditions.

The isolation valves separate (isolate) the front brake hydraulic circuits from the master cylinder and rear brake hydraulic circuits. Once the front brake hydraulic circuits are isolated, pressure can be applied to the front wheels without affecting any other brake hydraulic circuit.

The EBTCM turns ON the BPMV pump motor in order to take the following actions:
^ Apply pressure
^ Begin cycling the BPMV inlet and outlet valves to modulate the pressure

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
The DTC C1244 sets when the Electronic Brakes and Traction Control Module (EBCM/EBTCM) detects an open or short to ground in the LF isolation valve circuit.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
The following actions are taken when the DTC sets:
^ A malfunction DTC is stored
^ The ABS is disabled
^ The ANTILOCK indicator lamp is turned ON.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE DTC
The DTC will be cleared under following conditions:
^ Conditions for the malfunction are no longer present. Use the Scan Tool clear DTCs function.
^ 100 ignition switch key cycles have passed with no malfunctions detected.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Perform a thorough inspection of the wiring and the connectors.

Failure to carefully inspect wiring may result in misdiagnosis. Misdiagnosis may result in part replacement with reappearance of the malfunction.
