DTC C0278/11 Open in ABS Solenoid Relay Circuit DTC C0279/12 Short To B+ in ABS Solenoid Relay Circuit

This document describes diagnostic trouble codes C0278/11 and C0279/12 related to the anti-lock braking system (ABS) solenoid relay circuit. The relay supplies power to the ABS and traction control system solenoids. These codes indicate issues with an open or short circuit in the relay. The inspection procedure involves checking the ABS fuse, voltage at the stability control ECU terminal, harness and connectors, and reconfirming the diagnostic trouble codes. If the codes remain, the master cylinder solenoid should be replaced.

DTC C0278/11 Open in ABS Solenoid Relay Circuit

DTC C0279/12 Short to B+ in ABS Solenoid Relay Circuit


DESCRIPTION
The solenoid relay supplies power to the ABS solenoid and TRAC solenoid. BC
After the ignition switch is turned on, the vehicle speed has reached 4 mph (6 km/h) and the solenoid is
determined to be normal by the initial check self- diagnosis, the relay switches on. If any open or short
circuits are detected, the relay switches off.
These DTCs may be set if the voltage supply to the solenoid relay (+BS) falls below the DTC detection
threshold due to the battery or generator outputs being insufficient.
DTC No. DTC Detecting Condition Trouble Areas
When either of following conditions detected:
1. Both of following conditions continue for at least 0.2
seconds.
(a) IG voltage between 9.5 V and 17 V. • ABS SOL fuse
C0278/11 (b) Relay contact open when relay ON • +BS terminal circuit
2. Both of following conditions continue for at least 0.2 • Master cylinder solenoid (skid control ECU)
seconds.
(a) IG voltage 9.5 V or less when relay ON.
(b) Relay contact remains open.
Following condition continues for at least 0.2 seconds. • ABS SOL fuse
C0279/12 • Relay contact closed immediately after turning IG • +BS terminal circuit
switch to ON when relay OFF. • Master cylinder solenoid (skid control ECU)
