Keep getting DIC code C1293 H !!
I keep getting the "ServiceActive Handling" message usually right after start up and leave the house. Code C1293 is the dic code that keeps showing up. It has a H after the code, so I know it's a history code, but is irritating since can't put it in Comp mode and disables the active handling. I read on another thread to check the Master Brake Pressure Cylinder (next to the ECTBM), and look at the sensor there to see if wiring is ok. Is it the sensor with the 3 wires going to it on the drivers side of the Master Brake Cylinder? How does it pull out, if so? What else should I do or check out ???? Thanks for any help !!!

The brake fluid pressure sensor is located in the BPMV (Brake Pressure Modulation Valve) which is attached to the EBCTM. These are seperate from the Brake Master Cylinder. Follow the brake lines from the Master Cylinder and you will see they go to unit located near the front (and low) in the engine compartment. That unit, with four brake lines coming out of it, is the BPMV. On the drivers side of that unit is the wiring for the sensor. The radiator inlet hose may make it difficult to see/get to the wiring. The pressure sensor is screwed into the BPMV. 16 lb/ft of torque to install a new sensor. Good luck,
