Makes 🢒 Oldsmobile 🢒 2001 🢒 Intrigue 🢒 Brakes 🢒 Antilock Brake System 🢒 DTC U1651

Circuit Description

The EBCM monitors the received messages from the steering angle sensor for corruption or for missing messages.

Conditions for Running the DTC

•	The ignition is ON.

•	The vehicle speed is greater than 40 km/h (25 mph).

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The EBCM receives a corrupt or a missing message after 100 milliseconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

If equiped, the following actions occur:

•	The EBCM disables theTCS/VSES and for the duration of the ignition cycle.

•	A malfunction DTC will set.

•	The TCS indicator turns on.

•	The PCS indicator turns on.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

•	The condition for the DTC is no longer present.

•	Using a scan tool.

•	The EBCM automatically clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles.

Diagnostic Aids

Possible causes of this DTC are as follows:

•	An open in the CAN HI or CAN LO circuit.

•	An open in the ignition circuit.

•	An open in the ground circuit.

•	Malfunctioning steering angle sensor.

•	Malfunctioning EBCM.
