Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Results

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 DTC inspection using the M-MDS.
(See DTC INSPECTION.)

•  Are any DTCs displayed?

Yes

Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.

(See DTC TABLE [DSC HU/CM (E)].)

(See DTC TABLE [ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE UNIT].)

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”.

(See ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE WARNING LIGHT TURNS ON [ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE (E)].)

No

Go to the next step.

3

INSPECT ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH CONNECTOR CONDITION

•  Switch the ignition off.

•  Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [(E)].)

•  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, and perform the repair completion verification.

4

INSPECT ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH INDICATOR LIGHT POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND AND OPEN CIRCUIT

•  Inspect the power supply circuit for an open circuit and short to ground.
(See CIRCUIT INSPECTION.)

•  Is the circuit normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location, and perform the repair completion verification.

5

INSPECT ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH

•  Inspect the electric parking brake switch.
(See ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH INSPECTION.)

•  Is the electric parking brake switch normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Replace the electric parking brake switch, and perform the repair completion verification.

(See ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

6

INSPECT DSC HU/CM (WITHOUT Mazda M Hybrid)/ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE UNIT (WITH Mazda M Hybrid) CONNECTOR CONDITION

•  Switch the ignition off.

•  Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [(E)].)

•  Disconnect the DSC HU/CM (without Mazda M Hybrid)/electronically controlled brake unit (with Mazda M Hybrid) 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, and perform the repair completion verification.

7

INSPECT ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE SWITCH INDICATOR LIGHT CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND AND OPEN CIRCUIT

•  Inspect the control circuit for an open circuit and short to ground.
(See CIRCUIT INSPECTION.)

•  Is the circuit normal?

Yes

Replace the DSC HU/CM (without Mazda M Hybrid)/electronically controlled brake unit (with Mazda M Hybrid), and perform the repair completion verification.

(See DSC HU/CM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L.H.D. (E)].)

(See DSC HU/CM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [R.H.D.].)

(See ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [R.H.D.].)

(See ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L.H.D.].)

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location, and perform the repair completion verification.

Repair completion verification

VERIFY THAT MALFUNCTION SYMPTOMS DO NOT RECUR AFTER REPAIR

•  Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.

•  Has the malfunction symptom been eliminated?

Yes

Complete the symptom troubleshooting.

Explain to the customer what has been repaired.

No

Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.

(See CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW [(E)].)

If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.
