  1. Refer to VEHICLE DYNAMIC SYSTEMS for schematic and connector information.

    Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    When the ABS module receives a parking brake apply or release request, the ABS module sends voltage to the parking brake actuator motors. The ABS module also monitors the current draw of the actuator motors to determine when the brake pads contact the brake disc, to determine when the appropriate amount of clamping force is being applied to the brake disc and to determine when the brake pads are retracted to their start position. The actuator motors have a serviceable jumper harness connecting the actuator motor to the body harness at C143.

    REFER to: Parking Brake - System Operation and Component Description .

    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    ABS C2005:71 Right Actuator: Actuator Stuck This DTC sets in continuous memory and on-demand if during an apply or release command, the ABS module detects if at least one actuator state is unknown or one actuator is applied when the other is released.
    ABS C2005:74 Right Actuator: Actuator Slipping This DTC sets in continuous memory when the clamp request from the ABS module takes longer than 8 seconds to perform.
    ABS C2006:77 Left Actuator: Commanded Position Not Reachable This DTC sets in continuous memory and on-demand if during an apply or release command, the ABS module detects an irregular current draw.
    ABS C2007:74 Right Motor: Actuator Slipping This DTC sets in continuous memory when the clamp request from the ABS module takes longer than 8 seconds to perform.
    ABS C2008:74 Left Motor: Actuator Slipping This DTC sets in continuous memory when the clamp request from the ABS module takes longer than 8 seconds to perform.
