Diagnostic Fault Information

Antilock Brake System

Circuit/System Description

The body control module monitors the electronic stability control switch. When the electronic stability control switch is pressed once, the body control module will request the electronic brake control module via serial data to disable the traction control. When the electronic stability control switch is pressed and held for five seconds, the body control module will request the electronic brake control module to disable the stability control. The Electronic Brake Control Module will request the Instrument Cluster to turn the Traction Control Off and Stability Control Off indicator ON to notify the driver of the deactivation.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The body control module detects a short to ground on the signal circuit.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The body control module ignores the traction control switch signal input.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

When the condition for setting the DTC is no longer present.
The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Diagnostic Fault Information

Antilock Brake System

Circuit/System Description

Each wheel speed sensor receives ignition voltage through the signal high circuit from the electronic brake control module. Wheel speeds are detected by active wheel speed sensors and encoder rings. The magnetic encoder rings consists of multiple north and south pole pairs surrounding the outer circumference. When the encoder ring rotates and passes by the wheel speed sensor; it generates a sign wave in the wheel speed sensor. The sensor converts the signal to a digital square wave; the square wave values switch between 7mA (Low) and 14mA (High) DC current. As the wheel spins, the module uses the frequency of the square wave signal to calculate the wheel speed.

DTC Descriptor

DTC C0242

Powertrain Control Module Indicated Traction Control

For symptom byte information refer to Symptom Byte List.

Circuit/System Description

The electronic brake control module and the engine control module simultaneously control the traction control. The electronic brake control module sends a serial data message to the engine control module requesting torque reduction.

A serial data message is sent to the electronic brake control module indicating that traction control is not allowed.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Engine running

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The engine control module detects a fault that prevents it from performing a traction control function and sends a serial data message to the electronic brake control module indicating that torque reduction is not allowed.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The electronic brake control module sends a serial data message to illuminate the appropriate warning/indicator message.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The condition for the DTC is no longer present.
The electronic brake control module clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles.

Diagnostic Aids

Inspect for proper transmission operation.
Inspect the exhaust system for a possible restriction.
Inspect for lack of engine power, hesitation, stumble or rough idle.
Some intermittent communication concerns may be caused by fretting corrosion on the serial data circuit terminals. Inspect all connectors at the control module that set the communication DTC, the control module that the communication DTC was set against, and any inline harness connectors between the two control modules. Do not replace a control module based only on fretting corrosion.

Circuit/System Description

The wheel speeds are detected by active wheel speed sensors and encoder rings. The encoder ring consists of permanent magnets. Each wheel speed sensor receives 12 V reference voltage from the electronic brake control module and provides an alternating current square wave signal to the electronic brake control module. As the wheel spins, the electronic control module uses the frequency of the square wave signal to calculate the wheel speed. The electronic brake control module sends the wheel speed information as a high speed controller area network (CAN) serial data message.

Ignition OFF.
Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.

Go to next step: If less than 10 Ω

3. Ignition ON.

4. Verify the scan tool Body Control Module, Traction Control Switch parameter is Inactive.

If Active

Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 14 and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance, replace the K9 Body Control Module.

Go to next step: If Inactive

5. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.

6. Verify the scan tool Traction Control Switch parameter is Active.

If Inactive

Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module, ignition ON.
Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 1 V.
Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, replace the K9 Body Control Module.

Go to next step: If Active

7. Test or replace the S75 Traction Control Switch.

Component Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S75 Traction Control Switch.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminal 1 and the ground terminal 3 with the switch in the open position.

If less than infinite resistance

Replace the S75 Traction Control Switch.

Go to next step: If infinite resistance

3. Test for less than 2 Ω between the signal circuit terminal 1 and the ground terminal 3 with the switch in the closed position.

If 2 Ω or greater

Replace the S75 Traction Control Switch.

Go to next step: If less than 2 Ω

4. All OK.
