DTC P15C2:
Brake Booster Pressure Sensor B Circuit Low Voltage
NOTE: Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview.
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
2. Check BRAKE BOOSTER PRESSURE SENSOR B in the EVPS DATA LIST under BRAKE SYSTEM with the HDS.
Is there 0.23 V or less?
YES -
Go to step 3.
NO -
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at brake booster pressure sensor B and the PCM.�
3. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
4. Disconnect brake booster pressure sensor B 3P connector.
5. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
6. Check BRAKE BOOSTER PRESSURE SENSOR B in the EVPS DATA LIST with the HDS.
Is there about 5 V indicated?
YES -
Go to step 7.
NO -
Go to step 12.
7. Measure the voltage between brake booster pressure sensor B 3P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 3.
Is there about 5 V?
YES -
Replace the brake booster pressure sensor B Brake Booster Pressure Sensor B Replacement.�
NO -
Go to step 8.
8. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
9. Short the SCS line with the HDS.
10. Disconnect PCM connector A (44P).
11. Check for continuity between PCM connector A (44P) terminal No. 19 and brake booster pressure sensor B 3P connector terminal No. 1.
Is there continuity?
YES -
Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software PCM Update, or substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good PCM, replace the original PCM Service and Repair.�
NO -
Repair an open in the wire between the PCM and brake booster pressure sensor B.�
12. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
13. Start the SCS line with the HDS.
14. Disconnect PCM connector A (44P).
15. Check for continuity between brake booster pressure sensor B 3P connector terminal No. 2 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES -
Repair a short in the wire between the PCM and brake booster pressure sensor B.�
NO -
Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software PCM Update, or substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good PCM, replace the original PCM Service and Repair.�
