DTC C14B6: Stroke Sensor / Reaction Force Pressure Sensor Output Inconsistent [04/2018 - ]: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. CUSTOMER PROBLEM ANALYSIS (CHECK CONDITION WHEN MALFUNCTION OCCURRED) AND FREEZE FRAME DATA 
    1. Interview the customer to check the vehicle conditions when the brake warning light / yellow (minor malfunction) illuminated.
    2. Using the Techstream, read the "Shift Lever Position", "Vehicle Speed", "Yaw Rate Sensor", "Steering Angle Sensor", "Stop Light SW", "Stroke Sensor", "Reaction Force Pressure", "Servo Pressure" and "Accumulator Pressure" of the Freeze Frame Data stored when the DTC was stored.

      HINT: 

      • Freeze Frame Data is only stored once when a DTC is stored.
      • If other DTCs are output, repair any malfunctions related to those DTCs first, and then reproduce the conditions that caused DTC C14B6 to be stored based on the interview with the customer.

  2. INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL STROKE SENSOR ASSEMBLY OUTPUT VOLTAGES AND WHEEL CYLINDER PRESSURE 
    1. Turn the power switch off.
    2. Mount a pedal effort gauge.
    3. Disconnect the A40 brake booster pump assembly connector.
    4. Depress the brake pedal 10 times or more until it becomes hard.

      HINT: 

      Depressing the brake pedal with the connector of the brake booster pump assembly disconnected drops the accumulator pressure to approximately 0 MPa.

    5. Connect an LSPV gauge set.
    6. Select the Data List on the Techstream.

      Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [04/2018 - ]

    7. Slowly depress the brake pedal and check the brake pedal stroke sensor assembly output voltages and the wheel cylinder pressure with respect to brake pedal depression force.
      NOTE:

      Check the wheel cylinder pressure with the switching solenoid (SSA, SGH) off and an accumulator pressure of 0 MPa.
