Pinpoint Test G: DTCs B2741, C2777, C2778 and U1901

Refer to Wiring Diagram Set 42, Vehicle Dynamic Systems for schematic and connector information. Diagrams By Number

Normal Operation

The yaw rate sensor, roll rate sensor, lateral accelerometer and longitudinal accelerometer are contained in one module called the stability control sensor cluster. The sensor cluster measures the vehicle acceleration, roll rate and yaw rate, then sends the signal along a dedicated Controller Area Network (CAN) bus to the ABS module.

Voltage is supplied from the ABS module to the sensor cluster along circuit CCA09 (VT/BN) and ground is provided through the ABS module along circuit RCA09 (GN/VT). Circuits VCA23 (BU/WH) and VCA24 (GN/OG) make up the dedicated CAN bus between the ABS module and the sensor cluster.

DTC B2741 / DTC C2777-DTC C2778 / DTC U1901:





This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Stability control sensor cluster
- ABS module



PINPOINT TEST G: DTCs B2741, C2777, C2778 and U1901

NOTICE: Use the Flex Probe Kit for all test connections to prevent damage to the wiring terminals. Do not use standard multi-meter probes.

NOTE: The vehicle must be on level ground, not on a hoist and at a complete standstill. Any vehicle movement will result in false values for this test.

- Retrieve and record any ABS module DTCs.
- Is DTC B2741, C2777, C2778 or U1901 present?

Yes
GO to G2.

No
The concern is not present at this time. INSPECT the sensor cluster for damage. VERIFY that the sensor cluster is mounted properly. REPAIR or INSTALL new as necessary. TEST the system for normal operation.

-------------------------------------------------
