DTC C143A-7E: ABS Solenoid Control Module Actuator Stuck On; DTC C143A-7F: ABS Solenoid Control Module Actuator Stuck Off [09/2018 - 10/2023]: Procedure

  1. CHECK TERMINAL VOLTAGE (+BS TERMINAL) 
    1. Turn the engine switch off.
    2. Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.
    3. Disconnect the A9 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.
    4. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A9-38 (+BS) - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (+BS CIRCUIT) 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (GND1 TERMINAL) 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A9-25 (GND1) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (GND1 CIRCUIT) 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. RECONFIRM DTC 

    HINT: 

    The solenoid circuits are located in the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly). Therefore, solenoid circuit inspection and solenoid unit inspection cannot be performed. Be sure to check if any DTCs are output again before replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly).

    1. Reconnect the A9 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.
    2. Clear the DTCs.

      Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [09/2018 - 10/2023]

      Chassis > Brake > Clear DTCs 

    3. Turn the engine switch off.
    4. Start the engine.
    5. Perform a road test.
    6. Check if the same DTC is output.

      Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [09/2018 - 10/2023]

      Chassis > Brake > Trouble Codes 

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      DTCs C143A-7E and C143A-7F are not output. A
      DTCs C143A-7E and/or C143A-7F are output. B

      HINT: 

      • If a speed signal of 20km/h (12 mph) or more is input to the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) with the engine switch on (IG) and the stop light switch assembly off, the ECU performs self diagnosis of the solenoid circuit.
      • If the normal system code is output (no DTCs are output), slightly jiggle the connectors, wire harnesses, and fuses of the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly).
      • If any DTCs are output while jiggling a connector or wire harness of the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), inspect and repair the connector or wire harness.
      • If no DTCs were output when reconfirming DTCs, checking for intermittent problems is necessary because it is suspected that the original DTCs were stored due to the poor connection of a connector terminal.

    Result: 

    USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [09/2018 - 10/2020]  , or refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [10/2020 - 11/2021]  , or refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [11/2021 - 10/2022]  , or refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [10/2022 - 10/2023] 

    Result: 

    REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY. Refer to  REMOVAL [09/2018 - 10/2020]  , or refer to  REMOVAL [10/2020 - 10/2022]  , or refer to  REMOVAL [10/2022 - 10/2023]
