Normal Operation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Mercury Milan, 2011 Lincoln MKZ, and 2011 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The ABS module uses input from the brake pedal angle sensor to determine the amount of deceleration the driver is requesting. The brake pedal angle sensor utilizes 2 Hall-effect sensors that provide redundant signals indicating the position of the brake pedal. The ABS module provides a 5-volt reverence voltage used by both of the sensors. The ABS module provides a signal return common to both sensors.

DTC DESCRIPTION TABLE

DTC Description Fault Trigger Conditions
  • C100A:62 - Brake Pedal Angle Sensor: Signal Compare Failure
This DTC sets if 1 of the 2 sensors inside the brake pedal angle sensor is inconsistent with the other or if the ABS module is faulted internally. This DTC can set as a result of other DTCs indicating a brake pedal angle sensor circuit fault. If DTCs C100D:21, 22 or C100E:21, 22 are present along with this DTC, diagnose them first.
  • C100D:21 - Brake Pedal Angle Sensor Circuit 1: Signal Amplitude > Minimum
If the voltage is less than 300 millivolts or if the ABS module is faulted internally, this DTC can set. This DTC can set as a result of a brake pedal sensor supply or signal return circuit fault (such as an open circuit). Diagnose DTC C100F:11 or 12 first if it is retrieved along with this DTC.
  • C100D:22 - Brake Pedal Angle Sensor Circuit 1: Signal Amplitude > Maximum
If the voltage is greater than 4.72 volts, this DTC can set. This DTC can set as a result of a brake pedal angle sensor supply or signal return circuit fault (such as an open circuit), an internal brake pedal angle sensor fault or an internal ABS module fault. Diagnose DTC C100F:11 or 12 first if it is retrieved along with this DTC.
  • C100E:21 - Brake Pedal Angle Sensor Circuit 2: Signal Amplitude > Minimum
If the voltage is less than 300 millivolts, this DTC can set. This DTC can set as a result of a brake pedal angle sensor supply or signal return circuit fault (such as an open circuit), an internal brake pedal angle sensor fault or an internal ABS module fault. Diagnose DTC C100F:11 or 12 first if it is retrieved along with this DTC.
  • C100E:22 - Brake Pedal Angle Sensor Circuit 2: Signal Amplitude > Maximum
If the voltage is greater than 4.72 volts, this DTC can set. This DTC can set as a result of a brake pedal angle sensor supply or signal return circuit fault (such as an open circuit), an internal brake pedal angle sensor fault or an internal ABS module fault. Diagnose DTC C100F:11 or 12 first if it is retrieved along with this DTC.
  • C100F:11 - Brake Pedal Angle Sensor Supply: Circuit Short To Ground
If the circuit is shorted to ground, this DTC sets. The ABS module supplies power to both of the sensors inside the brake pedal angle sensor. Correct this DTC before diagnosing DTCs C100D:21, 22 or C100E:21, 22.
  • C100F:12 - Brake Pedal Angle Sensor Supply: Circuit Short To Battery
If the circuit is shorted to voltage, this DTC sets. Correct this DTC before diagnosing DTCs C100D:21, 22 or C100E:21, 22.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
