Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information
Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information
Condition
Note! The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) applies only to cars with dynamic stability and traction control (DSTC).
The control module for the steering angle sensor is initiated by turning the steering wheel in either direction within 120 seconds of the car being started. The brake control module (BCM) retrieves the signals from the steering wheel angle sensor on the Control area network (CAN). Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) BCM-0108 is stored if the brake control module (BCM) registers that the control module for the steering wheel angle sensor has not be initialized within 120 seconds of start and the vehicle speed exceeds 10 km/h.
Substitute value
- Active yaw control is blocked.
Hint: For information about abbreviations, see Brake system, abbreviations Brake System, Abbreviations.
Possible source
- After starting the driver has driven straight ahead for more than two minutes and then switched off the ignition which has led to the steering wheel angle sensor not being initiated
- Internal fault in the steering angle sensor.
Note! This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is not due to an internal hardware fault in the Brake control module (BCM) and must not be remedied by replacing the control module.
Fault symptom[s]
- The anti-spin warning lamp is lit (up to and including 2002 model year)
- General yellow warning lamp lit (from model year 2003 inclusive)
- The traction control system does not function.
