Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The pump motor is an integral part of the brake pressure modulator valve (BPMV), while the pump motor relay is integral to the electronic brake control module (EBCM). The pump motor relay is not engaged during normal system operation. When antilock brake system (ABS) operation is required the EBCM activates the pump motor relay and battery power is provided to the pump motor.


Conditions for Running the DTC


C0110 04
* The ignition is ON.
* Initialization is complete.



C0110 61
* The test is initiated once per ignition cycle, when the vehicle speed is greater than 8 km/h (5 mph), and a fault was set on the last ignition cycle.
* The vehicle speed is greater than 20 km/h (13 mph), and the brake is not applied.
* The vehicle speed is greater than 40 km/h (26 mph).



Conditions for Setting the DTC

C0110 04

The EBCM detects a low voltage in the pump motor supply circuit when the feedback voltage is less than 6 volts for more than 1.8 seconds, and the pump motor is not activated. The ground circuit is open, and the feedback voltage is greater than 0.93 volt for 1.8 seconds, the pump is not activated.

C0110 61

The pump motor continues to rotate briefly after activation creating a feedback voltage. The EBCM sets the code if the measured feedback voltage indicates a binding or stalled pump motor.


Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The EBCM disables the ABS for the duration of the ignition cycle.
* The ABS indicator illuminates.



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

The pump motor is integral to the BPMV. The pump motor is not serviceable. Inspect the power and ground circuits proper connections.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the EBCM.
2. Test for less than 5 ohm of resistance between the ground circuit terminal 16 and ground.

• If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.

3. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 1 and ground.

• If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the ABS motor circuit fuse is open, test or replace the BPMV.

4. Ignition OFF, remove the EBCM from the BPMV.
5. Inspect the EBCM to BPMV connector for no damage, corrosion, or presence of brake fluid.

• If connector corrosion or damage is evident, replace BPMV and/or EBCM as necessary.
• If brake fluid is present, replace both BPMV and EBCM.

6. Connect the EBCM harness connector with the BPMV still separated.
7. Connect a test lamp between the pump motor circuits, on the EBCM side.
8. Ignition ON, use the scan tool to perform the Pump Motor Test.

• If test lamp does not illuminate, replace the EBCM. If the DTC continues to set, replace the BPMV.

9. If all circuits test normal, replace the BPMV.



Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.

* Brake Pressure Modulator Valve Replacement (Service and Repair)
* Control Module References for EBCM replacement, setup, and programming
