Conditions for Setting the DTC

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Pontiac Montana, 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette, and 2002 Chevrolet Venture. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

This DTC sets when the estimated brake rotor temperature of either of the drive wheels exceeds 375°C (700°F). When the estimated brake rotor temperature of either of the drive wheels exceeds 375°C (700°F) during normal braking or normal ABS operations, the DTC does not set until the next TCS activation. The brake rotor temperature can exceed 375°C (700°F) without setting the DTC if a TCS activation has not occurred. When the estimated brake rotor temperature of either of the drive wheels exceeds 375°C (700°F) during a TCS activation, the DTC sets immediately, but the EBCM does not disable TCS until the end of the TCS event.
