C1604 ECU Hardware Error

AutoHex Online Help: Hyundai i20(PB) 2012
Component Location
General Description

The HECU consists of an ECU (Electronic Control Unit ) and a HCU( Hydraulic Control Unit).

The HCU portion of the assembly contains a pump motor, solenoid valves, and accumulator.

Increase and decrease of hydraulic pressure is opreated by electronic motor, according to a measured signal by wheel speed sensor.

The function of HCU is to increase, decrease or maintain the hydralic pressure supplied to a wheel cylinder by operating return pump according to HECU control signal while ABS control is active.

The ECU monitors various sensor and switch inputs.

These inputs are used to make decisions regarding HCU component operation.



DTC Description

The HECU monitors the operation of the IC components such as memory, register, A/D converter and so on.

The ECU sets this code when the EEPROM data read by the master processor is different than prior data written, or when the master/slave processor detects abnormal operation in RAM, Status Register, Interrupt, Timer, A/D converter or cycle time.

Detecting Condition

Possible Cause

DTC Strategy

Internal monitoring

Faulty HECU

Case1

Monitoring

Period

Continuous

Enable

Conditions

If Internal control unit failures of the master/slave processor or peripheral integrated circuits is detected.

Case2

Monitoring

Period

Directly after ignition on, during reading of EEPROM-values

Enable

Conditions

Failure is set if checksum not correct or PSW-EEPROM-Handler reported unknown failure during EEPROM-value reading.

If EEPROM reading sequence take longer then 3s, a failure is set.

Fail-Safe

The ABS/EBD/ESP functions are inhibited.

The ABS/EBD/ESP warning lamps are activated.
