Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Action

1
VERIFY ALL SYSTEM DTCs
•  Switch the ignition OFF.
•  Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on) and wait for 10 s or more.
•  Perform a CMDTC self-test using the M-MDS.
•  Are any DTCs displayed?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.
No
Go to the next step.
2
VERIFY IF THE ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE WARNING LIGHT IS TURNED ON
•  Verify if the electric parking brake warning light is turned on.
•  Is the electric parking brake warning light turned on?
Yes
Perform an inspection referring to “ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE WARNING LIGHT TURNS ON”.
No
Go to the next step.
3
INSPECT ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH CONNECTOR CONDITION
•  Switch the ignition OFF.
•  Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
•  Disconnect the electric parking brake switch connector.
•  Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
•  Is the connector normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the connector.
4
VERIFY ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE CONTROL MODULE POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE
•  Verify that the electric parking brake switch connector is disconnected.
•  Connect the negative battery terminal.
•  Measure the voltage at the electric parking brake switch terminal K (wiring harness-side).
•  Is the voltage B+?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Inspect the AT 15 A fuse and MAIN 200 A fuse.
•  If the fuse is blown:
?  Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between battery positive terminal and electric parking brake switch terminal K.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.
•  Replace the fuse.
•  If the fuse is damaged:
?  Replace the fuse.
•  If the fuse is normal:
?  Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between battery positive terminal and electric parking brake switch terminal K.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.
5
INSPECT ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH
•  Inspect the electric parking brake switch.
•  Is the electric parking brake switch normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the electric parking brake switch.
6
INSPECT ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE CONTROL MODULE CONNECTOR CONDITION
•  Switch the ignition OFF.
•  Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
•  Disconnect the electric parking brake control module connector.
•  Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
•  Is the connector normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the connector.
7
INSPECT ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
•  Verify that the electric parking brake switch and electric parking brake control module connectors are disconnected.
•  Inspect for continuity between electric parking brake switch terminal L (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between electric parking brake switch terminal L and electric parking brake control module terminal 1R.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.
No
Go to the next step.
8
INSPECT ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
•  Verify that the electric parking brake switch and electric parking brake control module connectors are disconnected.
•  Inspect the wiring harness for continuity between electric parking brake switch terminal L (wiring harness-side) and electric parking brake control module terminal 1R (wiring harness-side).
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Replace the electric parking brake control module.
No
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between electric parking brake switch terminal L and electric parking brake control module terminal 1R.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.
