Test Description

The number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the diagnostic table.

  1. 2:  This step checks if the voltage is above the maximum of the range.
  2. 4:  Step 4 checks if the voltage is below the minimum of the range.
  3. 6:  This step checks for the integrity of the ground circuit.
DTC C0896

Step Action Value(s) Yes No
Schematic Reference:  ABS Schematics  
Connector End View Reference: ABS Connector End Views  or POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE
1 Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check? - Go to Step 2  Go to Diagnostic System Check - ABS 
2 
  1. Turn all the accessories off.
  2. Install a scan tool.
  3. Start the engine.
  4. Use the scan tool to monitor the battery voltage while running the engine at approximately 2000 RPM.
Is the monitored battery voltage within the specified range?		 0-17.4 V Go to Step 4  Go to Step 3 
3 Use a J 39200  to measure the voltage between the battery positive terminal and ground.
Is the voltage within the specified range?		 0-17.4 V Go to Step 5  Go to Symptoms - Engine Electrical
4  Continue to monitor the battery voltage with the scan tool while running the engine at approximately 2000 RPM.
Is the monitored battery voltage within the specified range?		 0-9.4 V Go to Step 6  Go to Step 5 
5
  1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
  2. Disconnect the scan tool if still connected.
  3. Test drive the vehicle above 6 km/h (3.5 mph).
Did DTC C0896 reset?		 - Go to Step 10  Go to Diagnostic System Check - ABS 
6 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
  2. Disconnect the EBCM connector.
  3. Install the J 39700  with the J 39700-530 to the EBCM harness connector only.
  4. Use a J 39200  to measure the resistance between the J 39700  terminal 15 and a good ground. See Special Tools .
Is the resistance within the specified range?		 0-5Ω Go to Step 8  Go to Step 7 
7 Repair open or high resistance in the ground circuit. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Is the repair complete?		 - Go to Step 11  -
8
  1. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position.
  2. Use a J 39200  to measure the voltage between the J 39700  terminal 8 and 15. See Special Tools .
Is the voltage within the specified range?		 Above 9.4 V Go to Step 9  Go to Symptoms - Engine Electrical
9
  1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
  2. Reconnect the EBCM connector.
  3. Disconnect the scan tool if the scan tool is still connected.
  4. Test drive the vehicle above 6 km/h (3.5 mph).
Did DTC C0896 reset?		 - Go to Step 10  Go to Step 11 
10 Replace the EBCM. Refer to Electronic Brake Control Module Replacement .
Is the repair complete?		 - Go to Step 11  -
11
