Circuit/System Description

The brake pedal position sensor is used to sense the action of the driver application of the brake pedal. The brake pedal position sensor provides an analog voltage signal that will increase as the brake pedal is applied. The body control module provides a low reference signal and a 5 V reference voltage to the brake pedal position sensor. When the variable signal reaches a voltage threshold indicating the brakes have been applied, the BCM will apply battery voltage to the stop lamp control circuit and center high mounted stop lamp control circuit. When the control circuit is energized the stop lamps are illuminated.

Conditions for Running the DTC


Battery voltage must be between 9-16 V

Brakes applied


Conditions for Setting the DTC


C0277 06 or C0890 03

The BCM detects a short to ground or an open/high resistance in the brake pedal position sensor signal circuit.

The BCM detects a short to ground or an open/high resistance in the brake pedal position sensor 5 V reference circuit.



C0277 07 or C0890 07

The BCM detects a short to battery voltage in the brake pedal position sensor signal circuit.

The BCM detects an open/high resistance in the brake pedal position sensor low reference circuit.


C0277 09

The BCM detects the brake pedal position sensor signal is changing faster than possible under normal operating conditions.

C0277 4B

The brake pedal position sensor home position is not learned.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

Brake lights will malfunction, the shift lock is inoperative, the service park brake system lamp illuminated in IPC, park brake will set but not disengage

Conditions for Clearing the DTC


The DTC will be current for as long as the fault is present.

When the fault is no longer present, the DTC will be a history DTC.

A history DTC will clear after 50 ignition cycles.


Diagnostic Aids

C0277 4B

If the DTC is set, recalibrate the brake pedal position sensor.

C0277 09

If the DTC is set, replace the brake pedal position sensor. If the DTC resets, replace the BCM.

Circuit/System Testing


C0277 06, C0277 07, C0890 03, C0890 07

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B22 brake pedal position sensor.

2. Ignition OFF, test for less than 60 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal C and ground.

3. If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for a short to voltage, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.

4. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal A and ground.

5. If less than the specified range , test the 5 V reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.

6. If greater than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.

7. Verify that the scan tool Brake Pedal Position Sensor parameter is less than 0.3 V.

8. If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit pin B for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM K9.

9. Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the 5 V reference circuit terminal A and the signal circuit terminal B. Verify that the scan tool Brake Pedal Position Sensor parameter is 4.8-5.2 V

10. If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.

11. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the B22 brake pedal position sensor.



C0277 09

1. Replace the B22 BPP sensor.

2. Perform the BPP sensor recalibration procedure. Refer to Brake pedal position sensor, calibration .

3. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running and Setting the DTC and verify the DTC does not reset.

4. If the DTC resets, replace the K9 BCM.



C0277 4B

1. Verify that the DTC sets under the Conditions for Running and Setting.

2. Perform the BPP sensor recalibration procedure. Refer to Brake pedal position sensor, calibration .

3. Operate the vehicle within the conditions that the customer experienced and verify the DTC does not reset.

4. If the DTC resets, replace the B22 BPP sensor.
