C2112 Valve Relay Error

AutoHex Online Help: Hyundai ACCENT(RB) 2012
Component Location
General Description

The HECU supplies battery power to all soleonid valves with a valve relay which is controlled by the Electronic Control UNIT(ECU).

The valve relay and all solenoid valves are installed inside the HECU ( Hydraulic and Electronic Control Unit ).



DTC Description

The ESP ECU monitors the voltage from the valve relay.

When the valve relay is switched to ON, the HECU will set this code if the solenoid voltage is below a specific range for a period of time.

When the valve relay is switched to OFF, the HECU sets this code if the solenoid voltage is over a specific range for a period of time.

Voltage Monitoring

Open or short of power supply circuit

Faulty HECU

Case1

(Open)

Enable

Conditions

If the valve relay is switched on and the reference voltage of valve relay < 5±0.5V continuously for 56ms, the failure is detected.

Case2

(Short or leakage)

Enable

Conditions

If the valve relay is switched off and voltage of valve relay > 6±0.5V or < 2.5±0.5V continuously for 56ms, the failure is detected.

Fail Safe

The ABS/EBD/ESP/DBC functions are inhibited.

The ABS/EBD/ESP/DBC warning lamps are activated.
