SUBJECT:
CODE 66 (PUMP MOTOR RELAY SHORTED)
MODELS:
1990 M/L VANS WITH 4 WHEEL ANTI-LOCK BRAKES
Some 1990 M/L Vans built prior to the VIN breakpoints listed below may experience a condition which will cause a code 66 to be set and deactivate the
anti-lock feature of the 4WAL system. This condition is most likely to occur when the vehicle is shutoff with the blower motor on and the brake pedal
depressed.
In this situation normal blower motor "coast-down" may cause the 4WAL pump motor to momentarily turn on. The resulting inrush of current from the
pump can create arcing of the internal relay contacts as they open and this could result in the relay contacts being stuck shut and a code 66 being set. This
code will also deactivate the anti-lock feature of the 4WAL system.
To correct this condition the EHCU module has been revised to prevent electrical feedback from the blower motor activating the pump.
Vehicles built after the following VIN breakpoints have the revised EHCU module installed.
Chevrolet

GMC Truck LB522580
