DTC C1263: Right Front ABS Motor Circuit Shorted To Voltage (Part 2 Of 2):

DTC C1263 Schematic:

Circuit Description
This DTC identifies a motor circuit that is shorted to voltage.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
^This DTC will set when the following conditions are met:
^ The Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) detects a short to voltage in CKT 1282 and/or CKT 1283.
^ This DTC can be set anytime.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
A malfunction DTC is stored, ABS is disabled, and the amber ABS indicator lamp is turned ON.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
^ Conditions for the malfunction are no longer present and the Tech 2 scan tool Clear DTC Information function is used.
^ One hundred drive cycles have passed with no malfunctions detected.

Diagnostic Aids
The following list contains items that need to be inspected when diagnosing this system:
^ Short to voltage between the right front motor and the EBCM (CKT 1282 and/or CKT 1283).
^ Right front motor armature winding has low or no resistance.
^ Faulty EBCM.
If the malfunction is not current, wiggle the wires of the affected channel and check if the DTC resets. This will help to pinpoint an intermittent malfunction in the motor circuitry or connections.

The frequency of the malfunction can be checked by using the Enhanced Diagnostic function of the Tech 2 scan tool, as described in Enhanced Diagnostics.


Test Description
The numbers below refer to step numbers on the diagnostic table.
4. Checks for a short to voltage in CKT 1282.
5. Checks for a short to voltage in CKT 1283.
6. Checks for shorted together CKT 1282 and 1283.
7. Checks for right front motor resistance.
