C0610Right Park Brake Actuator Control Circuit/Open

  • Generic OBD-II code · Chassis
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
C0610 reports that the drive circuit of the right rear parking brake motor is open, so the controller switches its bridge but no motor current flows. Mitsubishi's 2023 Outlander PHEV shows how such a check works under its own code C10B0-01: during apply or release the ABS unit looks for an open motor circuit on the right side and reacts within about one second, then suspends the electric parking brake and hill start assist. Hyundai calls the same fault C2417 on the Ioniq hybrids and replaces a connector extension harness, and GM's PIT5662A wants no more than 6 ohms per rear circuit at the EBCM. None of these makers emits C0610 itself. The right caliper cannot clamp; the left side is C060B.
