C1006 Description

 

The Body Control Module (BCM) provides a reference voltage on the brake fluid level signal circuit through a pull-up resistor that is connected to battery voltage. The Brake Fluid Level Switch switches the brake fluid level signal circuit to ground when the fluid level is low. A diagnostic resistor internal to the switch is placed in parallel with the switch.
