C2412 — Motor Short or Open
System: Chassis | Type: Generic (OBD-II Standard) | Make: Hyundai
C2412 is a generic (obd-ii standard) chassis diagnostic trouble code recorded for Hyundai vehicles. It belongs to the C-prefix family of codes, which covers chassis, braking, steering, suspension, or stability-control faults.
When C2412 is stored, the module has detected an open (broken or disconnected) electrical path in the monitored circuit; and a short-circuit (voltage pulled to ground or to supply) in the monitored circuit.
Scanning & clearing: Chassis (C) codes are stored in the ABS, traction control, or stability-control modules. An enhanced or OEM-level scan tool is usually required to read and clear them.
Because C2412 is a generic OBD-II code, its base definition is shared across manufacturers. The specific diagnostic steps, reference values, and repair procedures can vary by vehicle, and the TaT Diagnostic Assistant includes verified procedures submitted by working technicians.
The Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) monitors the ABS hydraulic pump motor circuit by commanding motor operation and supervising circuit voltage and current flow. DTC C2412 is set when the EBCM detects either no current flow when the motor is commanded on, indicating an open circuit, or excessive and uncontrolled current flow, indicating a short circuit. Unlike a performance based pump code, C2412 confirms a hard electrical fault in the motor windings, the supply and earth wiring, or the EBCM motor driver. When this code is set, the ABS and ESP warning lamps illuminate and antilock braki...
