Electrically controlled parking brake automatic trigger wake-up function status word reception anomaly fault: Data invalid

AI status

Completed 100%
Page language: EN

Causes

  • Corrupted or malformed CAN/FlexRay/LIN message from EPB or gateway
  • Faulty EPB control module or internal software error
  • Wiring harness damage, intermittent connector, or poor ground to EPB
  • Low or unstable battery/vehicle electrical supply during wake-up
  • Bus interference or multiple nodes transmitting conflicting data
  • Incorrect module coding/configuration after repair or update

Symptoms

  • Automatic EPB trigger (auto-apply/release) does not operate or is unreliable
  • EPB warning lamp or message on instrument cluster
  • Stored U2119 fault (may reappear after clearing)
  • Possible failure to enter/exit sleep or wake modes for parking brake
  • Unexpected parking brake behavior (e.g., not engaging or false engagement)

What to check

  • Read DTCs and freeze-frame data from all modules (EPB, BCM, gateway, ABS)
  • Check vehicle battery voltage and state of charge; ensure >12.4 V during tests
  • Check CAN bus presence and activity with a scan tool or CAN analyzer
  • Inspect EPB module connector and harness for corrosion, damage or water ingress
  • Check module power and ground voltages at the EPB connector
  • Attempt to reproduce by cycling ignition/sleep and monitoring message content

Signal parameters

  • CAN message identifier and message name for EPB wake-up/status (manufacturer-specific)
  • Expected data length (DLC) and valid status‑word byte(s) vs. received payload
  • Signal frequency/period on wake sequence (burst on wake then periodic)
  • Bit masks within the status word (e.g., ready/fault/wakeup bits) and allowed values
  • Timestamp consistency and absence of bit errors or checksum failures if used

Diagnostic algorithm

  1. Retrieve and record all stored DTCs from EPB, BCM/gateway and ABS modules; note occurrence conditions.
  2. Check battery voltage and charging system; recharge or connect stable supply if below specification.
  3. Visually inspect EPB connector(s) and wiring for corrosion, damage, loose pins or water ingress; repair as needed.
  4. With a CAN/CAN-FD analyzer or scan tool, monitor the EPB wake-up/status message during ignition/sleep cycles; confirm message ID, DLC and payload content.
  5. If messages are missing or payload is garbage, probe power and ground at the EPB module while reproducing the event; look for voltage dips or intermittent connections.
  6. Swap or test suspected gateway/relay/terminator if bus wiring and module power are healthy and other modules show comms issues.
  7. Check for software updates or known manufacturer bulletins for EPB/gateway modules; reprogram or update calibration if applicable.
  8. If tests indicate module internal failure (no valid messages despite correct power/grounds and wiring), consider replacing or reflashing the EPB control unit.
  9. After repairs, clear DTCs and perform several wake/sleep cycles to verify no recurrence and restore normal EPB auto-trigger behavior.

Likely causes

  • Missing or corrupt CAN message payload from EPB module due to module fault
  • Intermittent wiring/connector fault at EPB harness or gateway
  • Battery voltage drop during network wake-up leading to invalid status word
  • Gateway or ABS/BCM misrouting or software incompatibility after update

Fault status

⚠️ Status
EPB automatic trigger wake-up status word reception anomaly: data invalid — the control module received a wake/status message but the content did not meet expected format or values.
🟡 Repair difficulty: Medium
⏱️ Diagnostic time: 1-3 hours
