Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual: SM Solenoid Circuit (C1225,C1468,C1469,C146A,C146B)

DESCRIPTION

These solenoids turn on when signals are received from the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) and they control the pressure acting on the wheel cylinders to control the braking force.

DTC No.

HINT:

DTC will be output when conditions for any of the patterns in the table above are met.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

When replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), perform zero point calibration and store system information (See page PROCEDURE PROCEDURE ).

PROCEDURE

1.

RECONFIRM DTC

HINT:

These codes are detected when a problem is determined in the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly).

The solenoid circuits are 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 before replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly).

(a) Clear the DTC (See page ). (b) Turn the ignition switch off. ).

(b) Turn the ignition switch off.

(c) Start the engine.

(d) Drive the vehicle at a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph) or more for 30 seconds or more.

(e) Check if the same DTC is recorded (See page Result Result ).

HINT:

  • If a speed signal of 6 km/h (4 mph) or more is input to the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), with the ignition switch to ON and the stop light switch off, the ECU performs self diagnosis of the motor and solenoid circuits.
  • If the normal system code is output (the trouble code is not output), slightly jiggle the connectors, wire harness, and fuses of the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly). Make sure that no DTCs are output.
  • If any DTCs are output while jiggling a connector or wire harness from the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), inspect and repair the connector or wire harness.
  • The DTCs were probably output due to a bad connection of the connector terminal.
