Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information

Condition




The brake control module (BCM) can register diagnostic trouble code (DTC) BCM-0074 for a number of different fault causes. Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) BCM-0074 is stored:
- if there is a short-circuit to ground or open-circuit in the control module inlet or outlet valve circuits
- if the control module is subject to interference so that its calculations are incorrect
- if the control module registers a fault in its internal inlet and outlet valve circuits
- if there is a short-circuit to ground, short-circuit to supply voltage or an open-circuit in the inlet valve in the anti-spin circuit
- if the control module registers an open-circuit or short-circuit in one of its internal circuits.

Substitute value
- The ABS is blocked
- Traction control is blocked
- Stability control is blocked
- Active yaw control is blocked
- Electronic Brake force Distribution is blocked
- Brake assistance is blocked.

Hint: For information about abbreviations, see Brake system, abbreviations Brake System, Abbreviations.
