Diagnostic Test

1. VERIFY DTC IS ACTIVE

NOTE: Diagnose and repair all Pressure Sensor, Voltage related, Stop Lamp related and U1503-Implausible Message Data Length Received from FCM DTCs and symptoms before diagnosing this DTC.


Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, read and record ABS DTCs.
With the scan tool, read and record Environmental Data (EV Data).
With the scan tool, erase ABS DTCs.
Cycle the ignition switch.
Apply brake and release while looking for brake switch status change on scan tool. If brake status changes skip next step. If no status change on brake switch continue.
Apply brake pedal for at least 1 minute then 1 minute with brake off.
With the scan tool, read ABS DTCs.

Does this DTC reset?

Yes


No

2. INSPECT RELATED WIRING HARNESS, TERMINALS, & CONNECTORS

Turn the ignition off.
Visually inspect the related wiring harness. Look for any pinched, chafed, pierced, and partially broken wires.
Visually inspect the related wiring harness connectors. Look for broken, bent, pushed out, and corroded terminals.

Were any problems found?

Yes


No

3. CHECK (B15) SECONDARY BRAKE SWITCH SIGNAL CIRCUIT (DIESEL) OR (B15) BRAKE SWITCH NO. 1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT (GAS) FUNCTION WHILE DEPRESSING & RELEASING THE BRAKE PEDAL



Disconnect the Anti-Lock Brakes Module harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12 volts, probe the (B15) Secondary Brake Switch Signal circuit (Diesel) or the (B15) Brake Switch No. 1 Signal circuit (Gas) in the Anti-Lock Brakes Module harness connector.
Depress and release the brake pedal.

Does the test light illumination toggle from off to on within 4–5 mm of brake pedal travel?

Yes


No

4. CHECK (B15) SECONDARY BRAKE SWITCH SIGNAL CIRCUIT (DIESEL) OR (B15) BRAKE SWITCH NO. 1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT (GAS) FOR AN OPEN



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Stop Lamp Switch harness connector.
Measure the resistance of the (B15) Secondary Brake Switch Signal circuit (Diesel) or the (B15) Brake Switch No. 1 Signal circuit (Gas) between the Anti-Lock Brakes Module harness connector and the Stop Lamp Switch harness connector.

Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

Yes


No

5. CHECK (B15) SECONDARY BRAKE SWITCH SIGNAL CIRCUIT (DIESEL) OR (B15) BRAKE SWITCH NO. 1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT (GAS) FOR A SHORT TO GROUND



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Stop Lamp Switch harness connector.
Measure the resistance of the (B15) Secondary Brake Switch Signal circuit (Diesel) or the (B15) Brake Switch No. 1 Signal circuit (Gas) between ground and the Anti-Lock Brakes Module harness connector.

Is the resistance below 10k ohms?

Yes


No

6. CHECK (B15) SECONDARY BRAKE SWITCH SIGNAL CIRCUIT (DIESEL) OR (B15) BRAKE SWITCH NO. 1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT (GAS) FOR A OPEN GROUND
Measure the resistance on the (Z940) Ground circuit and ground in the Stop Lamp Switch harness connector.

Is the resistance below 5 ohms?

Yes


No
