Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration Description and Operation
Calibration Criteria
Brake pedal position sensor calibration must be preformed after the brake pedal position sensor or electronic brake control module (EBCM) have been serviced. The calibration procedure will set the brake pedal position sensor "home" value. This value is used by the EBCM to determine the action of the driver applying the brake system and to provide this information to the vehicle subsystems via the class II communication bus.
Calibration Procedure
- Install a scan tool.
- Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
- Select Diagnostics.
- Select the vehicle.
- Select Body and Accessories.
- Select Lighting Systems.
- Select Special Functions.
- Select BCM.
