Circuit/System Description

The yaw rate and lateral acceleration sensors are combined into one multi-axis acceleration sensor module, external to the electronic brake control module (EBCM). The EBCM supplies a 12 V reference voltage to the multi-axis acceleration sensor module. The multi-axis acceleration sensor module communicates with the EBCM via the high speed controller area network (CAN) serial data circuit. The EBCM activates the stability control function depending on multi-axis acceleration sensor module input.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition ON

Conditions for Setting the DTC

C0186 4B

The lateral acceleration sensor is not calibrated.

C0186 5A

The lateral acceleration sensor signal is not plausible with the yaw rate sensor signal, steering angle sensor signal and vehicle speed for 0.5-2 seconds.

C0186 71

The lateral acceleration sensor signal offset is out of specified range.

C0196 00

The yaw rate sensor signal is out of specified range.

C0196 5A

The yaw rate sensor signal is not plausible with the lateral acceleration sensor signal, steering angle sensor signal and vehicle speed. for 0.25-2 seconds

C0196 71

The yaw rate sensor offset is out of specified range.

C019B 5A

The yaw rate sensor signal is out of specified range.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • The EBCM disables the stability control for the duration of the ignition cycle.
    • The traction control/stability control-active indicator turns ON.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • A current DTC clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
    • The EBCM will turn OFF the indicator in the next ignition cycle.

Circuit/System Verification

  1. Ignition ON
  2. Inspect the B119 Multi-axis Acceleration Sensor for correct installation.
  3. ⇒   If not OK
        If loose or incorrect installation is diagnosed, correct the installation of the component.
  4. Verify that DTC C0186, C0196, or C019B is not present.
  5. ⇒   If the DTC C0186, C0196, or C019B sets
    3.1.  Perform the Vehicle Yaw Sensor Learn prior to this diagnostic.
    3.2. If the DTCs sets, refer to Circuit/System Testing.
    ⇓   If the DTC does not set
  6. All OK

Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF all vehicle systems OFF. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down. Disconnect the harness connector at the B119 Multi-axis Acceleration Sensor.
  2. Test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 6 and ground.
  3. ⇒   If 5 Ω or greater
    2.1. Ignition OFF.
    2.2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
    ⇒     If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
    ⇒     If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
    ⇓   If less than 5 Ω
  4. Ignition ON.
  5. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 5 and ground.
  6. ⇒   If the lamp does not illuminate
    4.1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K17 Electronic Brake Control Module and the B99 Steering Wheel Angle Sensor.
    4.2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
    ⇒     If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit
    ⇒     If less than 2 Ω, replace the K17 Electronic Brake Control Module.
    ⇓   If the test lamp illuminates
  7. Replace the B119 Multi-axis Acceleration Sensor. Verify the DTC does not set.
  8. ⇒   If the DTC sets
        Replace the K17 Electronic Brake Control Module.
    ⇓   If the DTC does not set
  9. All OK.
