Hummer H2. Manual - part 762

 

 

DTC C0121 

Circuit Description 

The solenoid valve relay supplies power to the solenoid valve coils in the EBCM. The solenoid valve relay, 
located in the EBCM, is activated whenever the ignition switch is in the RUN position and no faults are present. 
The solenoid valve relay remains engaged until the ignition is turned OFF or a failure is detected. 

Conditions for Running the DTC 

The ignition switch is in the ON position. 

Conditions for Setting the DTC 

z

DTC C0121 will set anytime the solenoid valve relay is commanded on and the EBCM does not see 
battery voltage at the solenoid valves.  

z

DTC C0121 will set anytime the EBCM commands the solenoid valve relay off and battery voltage is still 
present at the solenoid valves.  

Action Taken When the DTC Sets 

If equipped, the following actions occur: 

z

The EBCM disables the ABS/TCS/DRP for the duration of the ignition cycle.  

z

A malfunction DTC is set.  

z

The ABS indicator turns ON.  

z

The TRAC Off indicator turns ON.  

z

The Red BRAKE Warning indicator could turn on.  

Conditions for Clearing the DTC 

z

The condition for the DTC is no longer present and the DTC is cleared with a scan tool.  

z

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) automatically clears the history DTC when a current DTC 
is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles.  

Diagnostic Aids 

z

It is very important that a thorough inspection of the wiring and connectors be performed. Failure to

carefully and fully inspect wiring and connectors may result in misdiagnosis, causing part replacement 
with reappearance of the malfunction.  

z

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that may be causing the complaint for the following conditions: 

{

Backed out terminals  

{

Improper mating  

{

Broken locks  

{

Improperly formed or damaged terminals  

{

Poor terminal-to-wiring connections  

{

Physical damage to the wiring harness  

z

The following conditions may cause an intermittent malfunction: 

{

A poor connection  

{

Rubbed-through wire insulation  

{

A broken wire inside the insulation  

z

If an intermittent malfunction exists, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor 
Connections in Wiring Systems.  

z

The solenoid valve relay is an integral part of the EBCM and is not serviced separately.

DTC C0161 

Circuit Description 

The stoplamp switch is a normally open switch, when the brake pedal is depressed the EBCM will sense battery 
voltage. This allows the EBCM to determine the state of the brake lamps. The EBCM sources 5 volts on the 
stop lamp switch signal circuit when the stop lamp switch is inactive. The voltage is supplied a ground path 
through the stop lamp bulbs. 

Conditions for Running the DTC 

The ignition switch is ON. 

Conditions for Setting the DTC 

z

EBCM detects open in the brake signal circuit.  

z

Both brake lamps are faulty.  

z

The stoplamp switch input voltage is between 6.6 and 9 volts for 0.5 second.  

Action Taken When the DTC Sets 

If equipped, the following actions occur: 

z

A malfunction DTC will set.  

z

The EBCM stores this information-only DTC for as long as the condition is present.  

z

The ABS remains functional.  

z

The ABS indicator remains OFF.  

Conditions for Clearing the DTC 

z

The condition for the DTC is no longer present and the DTC is cleared with a scan tool.  

z

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) automatically clears the history DTC when a current DTC 
is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles.

Diagnostic Aids 

z

It is very important that a thorough inspection of the wiring and connectors be performed. Failure to 
carefully and fully inspect wiring and connectors may result in misdiagnosis, causing part replacement 
with reappearance of the malfunction.  

z

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that may be causing the complaint for the following conditions: 

{

Backed out terminals  

{

Improper mating  

{

Broken locks  

{

Improperly formed or damaged terminals  

{

Poor terminal-to-wiring connections  

{

Physical damage to the wiring harness  

z

Possible causes of this DTC are the following conditions: 

{

A signal circuit of the stop lamp switch is open  

{

The stop lamp switch is misadjusted  

{

Verify proper stop lamp switch operation using the data list of the scan tool. As the brake is 
applied, the data list displays the stop lamp switch ON within 2.54 cm (1 in) of travel  

{

All brake lamps are open  

{

All brake lamp grounds are open  

{

Circuit has a wiring problem, terminal corrosion, or poor connections  

{

Loose or corroded EBCM ground  

z

If an intermittent malfunction exists refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor 
Connections in Wiring Systems.  

Test Description 

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table. 

3: This DTC detects an open stop lamp switch signal circuit from the stop lamp side of the splice pack to 
the EBCM.  

4: The EBCM sources 5 volts on the stop lamp switch signal circuit. This small voltage has a ground path 
through the stop lamp bulbs. This DTC sets if the path to ground is open.
