Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The yaw rate, lateral acceleration and longitudinal acceleration sensors are combined into one multi-axis acceleration sensor, external to the electronic brake control module. The electronic brake control module supplies ignition voltage to the multi-axis acceleration sensor. The multi-axis acceleration sensor communicates with the module via serial data circuit. The electronic brake control module activates the stability control function depending on multi-axis acceleration sensor input.
Conditions for Running the DTC

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
C0186 00, C0186 5A, C0186 71, C018B 5A, C0196 00, C0196 5A, C019B 5A, and C0287 5A
* The traction control/stability control indicator turns ON.
* The electronic brake control module disables the stability control for the duration of the ignition cycle.
C0186 4B, C0287 4B, and C0287 71
The electronic brake control module disables the hill start assist for the duration of the ignition cycle.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
* A current DTC clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
* The electronic brake control module will turn off the indicator in the next ignition cycle.
Diagnostic Aids
DTC C0186 5A and C0287 5A will set after replacing the multi-axis acceleration sensor if the sensor is not configured and setup. Perform the Multi-Axis Acceleration Sensor Module Programming and Setup Multi-Axis Acceleration Sensor Module Programming and Setup and the Vehicle Yaw Sensor Learn Vehicle Yaw Sensor Learn procedures to complete the configuration and setup.

Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition ON.
2. Verify DTC C0186 5A or C0287 5A is not set.
• If either DTC is set
Perform the Multi-Axis Acceleration Sensor Module Programming and Setup Multi-Axis Acceleration Sensor Module Programming and Setup and the Vehicle Yaw Sensor Learn Vehicle Yaw Sensor Learn procedures to complete the configuration and setup.
• If either DTC is not set
3. Verify DTC C0186 4B or C0287 4B is not set.
• If either DTC is set
Perform the Vehicle Yaw Sensor Learn Vehicle Yaw Sensor Learn.
• If either DTC is not set
4. Verify the B119 multi-axis acceleration sensor is installed correctly.
• If loose or incorrect installation
Correct the installation of the component.
• If installed correctly
5. Ignition OFF, all vehicle systems OFF, and scan tool disconnected, disconnect the harness connector at the B119 multi-axis acceleration sensor. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
6. Test for less than 10 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 6 and ground.
• If 10 ohms or greater
1. Ignition OFF.
2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the ground circuit end to end.
• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
• If less than 2 ohms, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
• If less than 10 ohms
7. Ignition ON.
8. Verify a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 5 and ground.
• If the test lamp does not illuminate
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K17 electronic brake control module.
2. Test for infinite resistance between the ignition circuit and ground.
• If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
• If infinite resistance.
3. Test for less than 2 ohms in the ignition circuit end to end.
• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
• If less than 2 ohms, replace the K17 electronic brake control module.
• If the test lamp illuminates
9. Replace the B119 multi-axis acceleration sensor.
10. Verify the DTC does not set while operating the vehicle.
• If the DTC sets
Replace the K17 electronic brake control module.
• If the DTC does not set
11. All OK.
