Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual: Low Power Supply Voltage Malfunction (C1241)

Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual / Brake Control / Dynamic Control Systems / Vehicle Stability Control System(for Hydraulic Brake Booster) / Low Power Supply Voltage Malfunction (C1241)

DESCRIPTION

If there is a problem with the skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid) power supply circuit, the skid control ECU outputs the DTC and prohibits operation under the fail-safe function.

If the voltage supplied to terminal IG1 is not within the DTC detection threshold due to malfunctions in parts such as the battery and generator circuit, this DTC is stored.
