Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information

Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information

Condition




The brake control module (BCM) is programmed at the factory with software for several car models. During the first ignition cycle, the control module reads the vehicle configuration data from the central electronic module (CEM). The brake control module (BCM) then configures itself according to the car model and equipment.
Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) BCM-0076 may be stored if
- a brake control module (BCM) is installed that has previously been used in another car
- a central electronic module (CEM) is installed that has previously been used in another car
- software for another car is downloaded into the brake control module (BCM).

Substitute value
- Traction control is blocked
- Stability control is blocked
- Active yaw control is blocked.

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

Possible source
- A brake control module (BCM) from another model has been installed
- A central electronic module (CEM) from another model has been installed
- Software for another car is downloaded into the brake control module (BCM).

Note! This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is not due to an internal hardware fault in the Brake control module (BCM) and must not be remedied by replacing the control module.

Fault symptom[s]
- The anti-spin warning lamp is lit (up to and including 2002 model year)
- General yellow warning lamp lit (from model year 2003 inclusive)
- Anti-spin does not function
- The stability control system does not function
- The traction control system does not function.
