Brake Pedal Position Sensor

Brake Pedal Position Sensor

Circuit/System Description

The brake pedal position (BPP) sensor is part of the engine brake pedal override feature. The engine control module (ECM) continuously monitors the vehicle speed and the position of the brake pedal. These two main inputs, along with other ECM inputs are used to determine if the vehicle is decelerating at the proper speed and rate with the brake pedal applied. When the engine brake pedal override system is active, the ECM reduces engine torque to assist in reducing vehicle speed.

The BPP sensor is a six wire sensor, and is part of a dual brake position sensor. One BPP Sensor is used for the stop lamps and the other BPP Sensor is used for the engine brake pedal override feature. The BPP Sensor for engine brake pedal override communicates with the ECM. The ECM supplies a 5 V reference circuit, low reference circuit, and signal circuit to the BPP sensor. The BPP sensor sends a voltage signal to the ECM on the signal circuit. The voltage on the signal circuit will vary from a voltage greater than 0.25 V when the brake pedal is released to a voltage less than 4.75 V when the brake pedal is fully applied.

For information on the Stop Lamps side of the BPP Sensor, refer to Exterior Lighting Systems Description and Operation .

Conditions for Running the DTC

  • Ignition voltage is greater than 10 V.
  • DTC runs continuously when above condition is met.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P057B

ECM detects the BPP sensor signal is stuck in a range.

P057C

ECM detects the BPP sensor voltage is less than 0.25 V for 1 s.

P057D

ECM detects the BPP sensor voltage is greater than 4.75 V for 1 s.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

  • P057B, P057C, and P057D are Type A DTCs.
  • Engine torque is reduced to 50% of available engine torque during brake torque management.
  • Brake torque management is active at 25 kPa (3.7 PSI) of brake apply pressure.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

P057B, P057C, and P057D are Type A DTCs

Circuit/System Verification

  1. Ignition ON.
  2. Verify DTC P0641, P0651, P0697, or P06A3 is not set.
  • If any of the DTCs are set

Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle .

  • If none of the DTCs are set
  1. Transmission in Park, and service brake pedal released.
  2. Verify the scan tool Brake Pedal Position Sensor parameter in the ECM displays greater than 0.25 V.
  • If 0.25 V or less

Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

  • If greater than 0.25 V
  1. Verify the scan tool Brake Pedal Position Sensor parameter voltage changes as the brake pedal is applied and displays less than 4.75 V when the brake pedal is fully applied.
  • If the voltage does not change, or is greater than 4.74 V

Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

  • If the voltage changes and less than 4.75 V
  1. Verify the scan tool Brake Pedal Position Sensor Learned Release Position parameter is within 0.1 V of the Brake Pedal Position Sensor parameter when the brake pedal is fully released.
  • If difference is greater than 0.1 V

Perform the Brake Pedal Position Sensor Learn .

  • If difference is 0.1 V or less
  1. Verify the Brake Pedal Position Sensor parameter transitions smoothly without any spikes or dropouts when slowly applying and releasing the brake pedal.
  • If parameter does not transition smoothly or has spikes or dropouts

Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

  • If parameter transitions smoothly and there are no spikes or dropouts
  1. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
  2. Verify the DTC does not set.
  • If the DTC sets

Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

  • If the DTC does not set
  1. All OK.

Circuit/System Testing

NOTE: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.

  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B22 Brake Pedal Position Sensor. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.

NOTE: All terminal references are for the vehicle harness brake pedal position sensor connector.

  1. Test for less than 10 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal 6 and ground.
  • If 10 ohms or greater
  1. Disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
  2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the low reference circuit end to end.
  • If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
  • If less than 2 ohms, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
  • If less than 10 ohms
  1. Ignition ON.
  2. Test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal 5 and ground.
  • If less than 4.8 V
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
  2. Test for infinite resistance between the 5 V reference circuit and ground.
