Hyundai Elantra MD/UD: Troubleshooting - ESC(Electronic Stability Control) System - Brake System - Hyundai Elantra MD 2010-2015 Service manualHyundai Elantra MD/UD: Troubleshooting

Failure Diagnosis

1.
In principle, ESC and TCS controls are prohibited in case of ABS failure.
2.
When ESC or TCS fails, only the failed system control is prohibited.
3.
The solenoid valve relay should be turned off in case of ESC failure, refer to the ABS fail-safe.
4.
Information on ABS fail-safe is identical to the fail-safe in systems where ESC is not installed.
Memory of Fail Code
1.
It keeps the code as far as the backup lamp power is connected. (O)
2.
It keeps the code as far as the HCU power is on. (X)
Failure Checkup
1.
Initial checkup is performed immediately after the HECU power on.
2.
Valve relay checkup is performed immediately after the IG2 ON.
3.
It executes the checkup all the time while the IG2 power is on.
4.
Initial checkup is made in the following cases.
(1)
When the failure is not detected now
(2)
When ABS and ESC are not in control.
(3)
Initial checkup is not made after ECU power on.
(4)
If the vehicle speed is over 5 mph(8 km/h) when the brake lamp switch is off.
(5)
When the vehicle speed is over 24.8 mph(40 km/h).
5.
Though, it keeps on checkup even if the brake lamp switch is on.
6.
When performing ABS or ESC control before the initial checkup, stop the initial checkup and wait for the HECU power input again.
7.
Judge failure in the following cases.
(1)
When the power is normal.
(2)
From the point in which the vehicle speed reaches 4.9 mph(8 km/h) after HECU power on.
Countermeasures in Fail
1.
Turn the system down and perform the following actions and wait for HECU power OFF.
2.
Turn the valve relay off.
3.
Stop the control during the operation and do not execute any until the normal condition recovers.
Warning Lamp ON
1.
ESC warning lamp turn on for 3sec after IGN ON.
2.
ESC function lamp blinks when ESC Act.
3.
If ESC fail occured, ESC warning lamp turns ON.
4.
ESC OFF lamp turn on in case of
A.
ESC Switch OFF
B.
3sec after IGN ON
Standard Flow of Diagnostic Troubleshooting

Notes With Regard To Diagnosis
The phenomena listed in the following table are not abnormal.
Condition
Explanation
System check sound
When starting the engine, a thudding sound can sometimes be heard coming
from inside the engine compartment. This is because the system operation
check is being performed.
ABS operation sound
1.
Sound of the motor inside the ABS hydraulic unit operation (whine).
2.
Sound is generated along with vibration of the brake pedal (scraping).
3.
When ABS operates, sound is generated from the vehicle chassis due to
repeated brake application and release
(Thump : suspension; squeak: tires)
ABS operation (Long braking distance)
For road surfaces such as snow-covered and gravel roads, the braking distance for vehicles with ABS can sometimes be longer than that for other vehicles. Accordingly, advise the customer to drive safely on such roads by lowering the vehicle speed.
Diagnosis detection conditions can vary depending on the diagnosis code. When checking the trouble symptom after
the diagnosis code has been erased, ensure that the requirements listed in "Comment" are met.

HECU

During ABS operation, the brake pedal may vibrate or may not be able to be depressed. Such phenomena are due to intermittent changes in hydraulic pressure inside the brake line to prevent the wheels from locking and is not an abnormality.

Detecting condition
Trouble Symptoms
Possible Cause
Brake operation varies depending on driving conditions and road surface conditions, so diagnosis can be difficult. However if a normal DTC is displayed, check the following probable cause. When the problem is still occurring, inspect the ABS control module.

Faulty wheel speed sensor circuit
-
Faulty hydraulic circuit for leakage
-
Faulty HECU

Trouble Symptoms
Possible Cause
When current flows in the HECU the ABS warning lamp turns from ON
to OFF as the initial check. Therefore if the lamp does not light up, the
cause may be an open in the lamp power supply circuit, a blown bulb,
an open in the both circuits between the ABS warning lamp and the
HECU, and the faulty HECU.
