DESCRIPTION
The motor relay and motor fail-safe relay are built into the brake actuator assembly.
During ABS, TRAC, VSC, or brake assist operation, the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) turns on the motor relay to run the pump motor in the brake actuator assembly.
When a motor system DTC is stored, the motor fail-safe relay cuts the power source supply to the motor relay for fail-safe operation.
These DTCs may be stored when the voltage to the motor relay power source (BM terminal) is lower than the DTC detection condition due to low output from the battery or alternator.
DTC No. |

Motor Power Supply Voltage Circuit |
When voltage at +BS terminal is 9.5 V or higher, open in BM terminal continues for 1 second or more. |
|
C146C |
Open in ABS Motor Relay Circuit |
When voltage at +BS terminal is 9.5 V or higher and motor relay ON while control operates, relay contact OFF condition continues for 0.12 seconds or more. |

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
NOTICE:
HINT:
When C1241 and/or C1417 is output together with C142B, C146C and/or C146D inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by C1241 and/or C1417 first.
PROCEDURE
1. |
CHECK TERMINAL VOLTAGE (BM TERMINAL) |
(a) Turn the ignition switch off.
(b) Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.
(c) Disconnect the S1 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector. |
|
(d) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

RECONFIRM DTC |
HINT:
These codes are stored when a problem is identified in the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly). The motor relay is in the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly). Therefore, motor relay inspections and motor relay unit inspections cannot be performed. Be sure to check if any DTCs are output before replacing the brake actuator assembly.
(a) Reconnect the S1 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.
(b) Clear the DTC (See page
).
(c) Turn the ignition switch off.
(d) Start the engine.
(e) Drive the vehicle at a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph) or more for 30 seconds or more.
(f) Check if the same DTC is recorded (See page
).
