Note

C13A6

Open or Short Circuit in Motor

One of the following conditions are met:

Detection conditions (1)

  1. Power switch on (IG) or electric parking brake switch (integration control and panel assembly) assembly pulled to lock side with power switch off.
  2. Power supply voltage and +B voltage are normal, but motor circuit is malfunctioning for approximately 1 to 2 seconds.

Detection conditions (2)

  • With the power switch off, an overcurrent malfunction is continuously detected for 1 second or more

Detection conditions (3)

  • With the power switch on (IG) and an overcurrent malfunction being continuously detected, the parking brake is locked and released 3 times
  • Wire harness or connector
  • Parking brake wire assembly
  • Parking brake actuator assembly
  • Parking brake ECU assembly

Yes

An electric parking brake system malfunction is displayed on the multi-information display.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • The electric parking brake may still operate up to 20 seconds after the power switch is turned off. Before disconnecting connectors or fuses, turn the power switch off and wait 20 seconds or more.
  • When replacing the parking brake ECU assembly, operate the electric parking brake switch (integration control and panel assembly) from the lock side to the release side, as the parking brake indicator light blinks when the power switch is first turned on (IG).

PROCEDURE

1.

READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (RH ACTUATOR CURRENT STATUS / LH ACTUATOR CURRENT STATUS)

(a) Turn the power switch off.

(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(c) Turn the power switch on (IG).

(d) Turn the Techstream on.

(e) Enter the following menus: Chassis / Electric Parking Brake / Data List.

(f) Read the Data List according to the display on the Techstream.
