Left Front Brake Hydraulic Circuit Blocked

Left Front Brake Hydraulic Circuit Blocked

Description

Ignition ON, accumulator pressure is less than 9,000 kPa (1,305 psi). The ignition voltage is greater than 10 volts. The EBCM performs a hydraulic system check every third ignition cycle. Brake pedal was depressed.

Cause and Solution

This diagnostic detects if the left front circuit is blocked by actively applying pressure and monitoring the accumulator pressure change. The pressure change of the accumulator indicates the value of fluid used which is then compared to expected fluid used during a brake apply. Too little fluid usage indicates a blocked circuit.
