Lexus ES: Open Circuit in ABS Motor Relay Circuit (C146C,C146D)

Lexus ES (XZ10) Service Manual / Brake / Brake Control / Dynamic Control Systems / Electronically Controlled Brake System (for Hv Model) / Open Circuit in ABS Motor Relay Circuit (C146C,C146D)

DESCRIPTION

The ABS motor relay is built into the brake booster with master cylinder assembly.

During ABS, TRAC, VSC, brake hold, secondary collision brake or brake assist operation, the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) turns on the ABS motor relay to run the pump motor in the brake actuator assembly.

When any DTC related to the ABS motor is stored, the IC built into the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) operates in fail-safe mode.

When the supplied voltage to the BM terminal of the ABS motor relay is excessively low due to an auxiliary battery or charging circuit malfunction, DTC C146C and/or C146D is stored.

DTC No.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) monitors the voltage of the ABS motor.

When the ABS motor relay is instructed to be on and the voltage of the ABS motor is within the range of an open circuit malfunction, or when the ABS motor is instructed to be off and the voltage of the ABS motor is within the range of a short circuit malfunction, an open circuit or short circuit is judged respectively and the MIL is illuminated and a DTC is stored.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the power switch on (IG).
  3. Turn the Techstream on.
  4. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  5. Turn the power switch off.
  6. Turn the power switch on (IG).
  7. Turn the Techstream on.
  8. Wait 4 seconds.
  9. Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRAC / Trouble Codes.
  10. Read the DTCs.

    HINT:

    • If a DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    • If a DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
  11. If the DTCs are not output, perform a universal trip and check for permanent DTCs.

    Click here

    HINT:

    • If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    • If no permanent DTCs are output, the system is normal.

A

DTCs C146C and/or C146D are output.

B

HINT:

  • If a speed signal of 20 km/h (12 mph) or more is sent to the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) with the power switch on (IG) and the stop light switch assembly off, the ECU performs self-diagnosis of the motor and solenoid circuits.
  • If the normal system code is output (no DTCs are output), slightly jiggle the connectors, wire harness, and fuses of the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly).
  • If any DTCs are output while jiggling a connector or wire harness from the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly), inspect and repair the connector or wire harness.
  • The DTCs were probably output due to a bad connection of the connector terminal.
