| 29 | This DTC is for information only and sets in continuous memory when the ABS module detects the engine has auto-stopped with vehicle speed less than 10 km/h (6 mph). Low voltage is expected in this vehicle mode and the DTC is set to indicate the vehicle was in this state. Due to this low voltage, critical CAN signal monitoring has detected missing signals or faulty data. Hill start assist is disabled due to faulted control input signals or signal missing for more than 250 milliseconds. Using a diagnostic scan tool, CLEAR the DTC. CYCLE the ignition from ON to OFF and back to ON. CARRY OUT the ABS module self-test. RETRIEVE and DIAGNOSE all other ABS module DTCs. |
