No.1 ESS (EMERGENCY STOP SIGNAL SYSTEM) DOES NOT OPERATE [ESS (EMERGENCY STOP SIGNAL SYSTEM) ]


id0903j7004200


Description

•  Hazard warning lights do not flash even though vehicle decelerates suddenly.
•  Hazard warning lights end flashing before vehicle stops (emergency stop hazard warning mode, vehicle speed at approx. 10 km/h {6.2 mph}) while system operates.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

Hazard warning light flash malfunction
•  BCM malfunction (flashing hazard warning light circuit malfunction)
ABS CM and DSC CM do not recognize vehicle speed.
•  Malfunction in ABS wheel speed sensor related parts
―  ABS wheel-speed sensor malfunction
―  ABS wheel-speed sensor rotor malfunction
•  ABS CM or DSC CM malfunction
BCM does not recognize sudden deceleration hazard warning mode request signal.
•  ABS CM or DSC CM malfunction (signal is not output)
•  BCM malfunction
•  Communication error between ABS CM, DSC CM and BCM
BCM does not recognize emergency stop hazard warning mode request signal.
•  Brake switch signal malfunction
―  Brake switch malfunction
―  Open or short circuit between brake switch and PCM 2AO (MZR-CD (2.2))/1AB (MZR 1.8, MZR 2.0, MZR 2.0DISI, MZR 2.5)
•  Vehicle speed signal malfunction
―  Communication error between PCM and ABS CM, DSC CM
•  BCM malfunction
Road condition may be affected. (emergency braking warning system is normal)
•  Grip level of tires is low
―  Driving on a low-traction surface
―  Tire wear (hydroplaning)

Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Action

1
VERIFY DTCs
•  Are any DTCs output?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
Go to the next step.
2
VERIFY MALFUNCTION CONDITION
•  Do the hazard warning lights flash in the emergency stop hazard warning mode while the vehicle speed is 10 km/h {6.2 mph} or less?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Go to Step 5.
3
DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSED BY PCM INPUT SIGNAL ERROR
•  Are the monitoring values normal?
Yes
May be affected by driving conditions (emergency braking warning system is normal).
If a malfunction occurs, replace the BCM.
No
Go to the next step.
4*
INSPECT BRAKE SWITCH SIGNAL FOR MALFUNCTION CAUSED BY OPEN OR SHORT CIRCUIT
•  Inspect the wiring harness between the brake switch and PCM 2AO (MZR-CD (2.2))/1AB (MZR 1.8, 2.0, 2.0DISI, 2.5) for an open or short circuit.
•  Is there any open or short circuit?
Yes
Repair the malfunctioning part for an open or short circuit.
No
Replace the brake switch.
5
INSPECT FLASHING HAZARD WARNING LIGHT CIRCUIT FOR MALFUNCTION
•  Flashes the hazard warning lights using the hazard warning switch.
•  Do the hazard warning lights flash?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the BCM.
6
DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSED BY ABS OPERATION MALFUNCTION
•  Inspect the ABS operation at 10—20 km/h {6.2—12.0 mph}.
•  Is the ABS operation normal?
Yes
System may be affected by road conditions (emergency braking warning system is normal).
If the malfunction recurs, replace the BCM.
No
•  Inspect the tires for the following:
―  Tire air pressure (are all four tires at recommended pressure?)
―  Tire wear condition (is tire wear uniform on all four tires, or is it different?)
―  Tire size
Adjust the malfunctioning tire or replace it.
