Supersession Statement
This PI was superseded to update models and model years. Please discard PIC5704F.
The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this
PI.
Condition / Concern
A technician may run into a scenario in which the BPMV (Brake Pressure Modulator Valve) has been
replaced and there is a Service Traction and/or Stability Control message on in the IPC. Upon a
GDS2 scan check, DTC C0131 SYM00 is set current in the K17 Electric Brake Control Module. During
diagnosis the technician may notice that the brake pressure sensor voltage is reading 5 volts at
all times with brake pedal released or depressed.
Recommendations / Instructions
Technicians are advised to remove BPMV assembly and inspect the brake pressure sensor assembly and
make sure all shipping material has been removed before installation. If shipping material is not
removed, this will cause code C0131 to set, and or possibly cause
damage to both the EBCM and the BPMV. Please reference the following photo.
Please follow this diagnostic or repair process thoroughly and complete each step. If the condition
exhibited is resolved without completing every step, the remaining steps do not need to be
performed.
