DTC C0900

Diagnostic Instructions

    • Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using the diagnostic procedure.
    • Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.
    • Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

DTC Descriptor

DTC C0900 00: Device Voltage High

Circuit/System Description

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) monitors the ignition voltage. If the voltage level is too high, damage may result in the system. When a high voltage condition is detected the EBCM turns OFF the system relay which removes battery voltage from the solenoid valves and pump motor.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The vehicle speed is greater than 8 km/h (5 mph).

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The system voltage is greater than 17 V for 0.72 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • The EBCM disables the ABS for the duration of the ignition cycle.
    • The antilock brake system (ABS) indicator turns ON.
    • The traction control and active handling indicator turns ON.
    • The solenoid relay opens, removing voltage from the solenoids and pump motor.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • The condition for the DTC is no longer present.
    • The EBCM automatically clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles.

Diagnostic Aids

Test the charging system. Refer to Battery Inspection/Test and Charging System Test .

Circuit/System Verification

  1. Engine running, accessories OFF, measure and record the battery voltage at the battery terminals. The voltage should be between 12.6-15.0 V.
  2. If not within the specified range, refer to Charging System Test .
  3. Observe the scan tool EBCM Battery Voltage Signal parameter. The reading should be between 12.6-15.0 V.
  4. If greater than the specified range, replace the EBCM.

Repair Instructions
