BCM-0061


BCM-0061 Brake Discs, Temperature Too High
Condition





In cars with traction control (STC/DSTC/TRACS), the brake control module registers how much the brakes are used and then calculates the temperature of all brake discs. Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) BCM-0061 is stored if the calculated temperature exceeds 450°C. The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) can be diagnosed while the ignition is switched on.

Substitute value
- Traction control is blocked.

Hint: For information about brake system abbreviations, Refer to Description and Operation.

Possible source
- Excessive anti-spin control
- Brakes applied too long (brakes have been used so much that brake disc temperature has become too high).

Fault symptom[s]
- Anti-spin does not function.

Note! The anti-spin function is deactivated until the temperature of the brake discs is below 300°C.
