Trouble condition
After the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position, it blinks once and then
illuminates when it is turned to the “START” position. When the key is
returned to the “ON” position, the light
blinks again. (Blinking with the ignition
key in the “ON” position is synchronized
with operation noise of the valve relay.)

(1) With the ignition switch OFF, connect the adapter harness
and scan tool, turn the ignition ON and select the ABS sys-
tem. (The ABS warning light lights up, it goes into the scan
tool mode.
In the scan tool mode, ABS does not func-
tion.)
If it does not go into the scan tool mode, check the ECU
power circuit and
the harness between the ECU and data
link connector.
(2) Read the on-board diagnostic output codes from the ECU
(3) ?a\?zl’ythe diagnostic trouble codes once from memory.
(Refer to P.35-20.)
If the memory can not be canceled, the ECU is currently
detecting the trouble. If it can be cleared, the trouble is
either temporary or appears only when driving.
(4) When the diagnostic trouble codes are cleared, or when
the ABS system goes into fail safe during another test drive
and diagnostic trouble codes are outputed, check accord-
ing to diagnostic trouble code check charts (E-l -E-6).

A ABS warning light does not light at all.
[Explanation]
When it does not light up at all, there is a strong
possibility that there is trouble with ABS warning
light or with power to the light.
[Hint]
If other warning lights do not light up either, fuse is
probably blown.

[Explanation]
This is the symptom when the ABS ECU does not
power up due to broken ECU power circuit, etc.,
when the fail safe function operates and isolates the
system or when the warning light drive circuit is
short circuited.
[Hint]
Check the on-board diagnostic output and if there is
no output voltage or if the scan tool and ABS ECU
cannot communicate, there is a good possibilit
y
that power is not flowing to the ECU.
Caution
l If there is no output of diagnostic trouble
codes, there is a good possibility that the

CABS warning light does not illuminate when ignition key is in “START”\
position.
[Explanation]
The ABS ECU uses the IG2
power source which is
turned off in the “START” position. The
ABS
warning light uses the IGl power source which is
not turned off even in the “START” position
.
Consequently, in the “START” position, power is off and the ECU turns the valve relay OFF. If the
warning light does not illuminate at this time, there is trouble in the warning light circuit on the valve
relay side.
