ABS  General  Information
The  ABS  consists  of  wheel  speed  sensors,  stop light  switch,  hydraulic  unit  and  the  ABS-ECU.  If
a  problem  occurs  in  the  system,  the  malfunctioning
system  can  be  identified  by  means  of  the  diagnostic
function.
The  diagnostic  trouble  code  will  not  be  erased  even
if  the  ignition  switch  is  turned  to  OFF. 
In  addition,  reading  of  diagnostic  trouble  codes,
service  testing  are  possible  using
