Pinpoint Test O: DTC C1998 - Module Calibration Not Complete

NOTE:
  • Stability assist lamp will flash when calibration is required. Roll stability control (RSC) calibration is required after certain DTCs are cleared.
  • Make sure the vehicle is on level ground, not on a hoist, before carrying out the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module calibration.
  1. O1 CHECK FOR DTCS 
    • Connect the scan tool.
    • Key in ON position.
    • Retrieve the DTCs.
    • Are any other DTCs retrieved with C1998? 

    Yes:  GO to the ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) MODULE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) INDEX .

    NOTE: Some of the pinpoint tests recommend RSC calibration prior to any further diagnostics, in this case, GO to  O2.

    No:  GO to  O2.

  2. O2 ABS CALIBRATION 
    • Start the engine.
    • NOTE: Be sure to rotate the steering wheel lock-to-lock during the calibration of the ABS system.
    • Carry out the ABS module calibration per the diagnostic tool instructions.
    • Did the calibration complete for all of the stability assist sensors; and did the stability assist lamp stop flashing and go off? 

    Yes:  GO to  O3.

    No:  GO to  O4.

    Some concerns will cause the calibration not to complete. If sent here from another pinpoint test, return to that pinpoint test for further diagnostics.

  3. O3 CLEAR DTC C1998 
    NOTE: You must clear DTC C1998 after the completion of the calibration.
    • Clear the DTC.
    • Did the DTC clear? 

    Yes:  TEST DRIVE the vehicle. REPEAT the self-test.

    NOTE: If sent here from another pinpoint test, return to that pinpoint test for further diagnostics.

    No:  GO to  O4.

  4. O4 MONITOR THE STEERING WHEEL ROTATION SENSOR PIDS 
    NOTE: You must clear DTC C1998 after the completion of the RSC calibration.
    • Monitor the ABS module steering position sensor PIDS while rotating the steering wheel clockwise and counterclockwise.
    • Are the 2 steering position sensor PID values switching as the wheel rotates? 

    Yes:  GO to PINPOINT TEST H .

    No:  GO to PINPOINT TEST G .
