C1237

DTC C1237





Circuit Description
The EBCM monitors the voltage level available for system operation. If the voltage level is too high, damage may result in the system. When the EBCM detects a high voltage condition, the EBCM turns OFF the system relay which removes battery voltage from the solenoid valves and pump motor.

Conditions for Running the DTC
The vehicle speed is greater than 8 km/h (5 mph).

Conditions for Setting the DTC
The system voltage is greater than 16.4 volts for 0.72 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
If equipped, the following actions occur:
^ The EBCM disables the DRP/ABS/TCS/VSES for the duration of the ignition cycle.
^ The ABS indicator turns ON.
^ The Traction Off indicator turns ON.
^ The DIC displays the Service Stability System message.
^ The EBCM will also set DTC C1248.
^ The red Brake warning indicator turns ON.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
^ The condition for the DTC is no longer present and the DTC is cleared with a scan tool.
^ The EBCM automatically clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles.

Diagnostic Aids
A possible cause of this DTC is overcharging.

Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
2. Use the scan tool in order to inspect the voltage to the EBCM.
3. Use the scan tool in order to inspect the voltage to the dash integration module (DIM). A high voltage value in multiple modules indicates a concern in the charging system.
4. Verities that the condition is still present
