Solenoid Valve - Pressure Hold Test

  1. This test activates selected wheel circuit inlet valve, placing valve in the pressure hold position and not allowing master cylinder pressure to be delivered to hydraulic wheel circuit.
  2. This action is taken because EBTCM has determined that wheel is moving too slowly, allowing it to rotate at an appropriate speed. In this test, scan tool commands the valve to close, allowing wheel to spin even though brake pedal pressure is applied. To perform test, go to next step.
  3. Turn ignition off. Install scan tool. Turn ignition to RUN position. Raise and support vehicle until wheels are about 6 inches from floor. Using scan tool's Special Functions, select VALVE SOLENOID TEST and command HOLD PRESSURE. With assistant holding brake pedal down, attempt to turn wheel being tested by hand.
  4. The wheel should turn even with pressure on brake pedal, it may be difficult to turn it by hand, but still can be turned if system is working properly.
