cross threaded. Be sure that the O-Ring on the
bladder accumulator is fully seated into the hy-
draulic assembly. (7) Using Oil Filter Band Wrench, Special Tool C-
4065 or equivalent, (Fig. 10) torque the bladder accu-
mulator to 48 N Im (35 ft. lbs.)

DIAGNOSTIC CONNECTOR
On the AA, AG, AJ and AP bodies, the Bendix An-
ti-Lock System diagnostic connector is located under
the fuse panel access cover. The access cover is lo-
cated on the lower section of the instrument panel on
the left side of the steering column. The diagnostics
connector is a blue 6 way connector see (Fig. 8).
ANTI-LOCK SYSTEM RELAYS AND WARNING
LAMPS
SYSTEM RELAY
The (ABS) Modulator Valves and Anti-Lock Warn-
ing Lamp Relay. Are powered through a System Re-
lay located on a bracket mounted to the (CAB) see
(Fig. 9) for location of the relay. The System Relay
provides power to the (CAB) for modulator valve op-
eration (pins 47 and 41) after the startup cycle when
the ignition is turned on.
ANTI-LOCK WARNING LAMP RELAY
The Amber Anti-Lock Warning Lamp is controlled
by the Anti-Lock Warning Lamp relay. The relay is
mounted to the same bracket as the system relay at
the (CAB) see (Fig. 9). With the relay de-energized,
the lamp is lit. When the System Relay is energized
by the (CAB), the Anti-Lock warning lamp relay is
energized, and the lamp is turned off. Thus, the lamp
will be lit if the (CAB) is disconnected or if a system
fault causes the (ABS) function to be turned off.
PUMP/MOTOR RELAY
Pump/Motor power is supplied by the Pump/Motor
Relay. The Pump/Motor Relay is either mounted on
the left front inner fender shield, or the front of the
left shock tower. The mounting location is dependent
on whether the vehicle is or is not equipped with a
power distribution center. See (Fig. 10 and 11) for
specific mounting locations.
ANTI-LOCK WARNING LAMP OFF
System Relay and Anti-Lock Warning Lamp
Relay Energized From pin 57 the (CAB) energizes the system relay
coil. The electrical current flow in the coil closes the
system relay. Then electrical current is provided to
pins 47 and 41 of the (CAB) to provide power to the
modulator valves. This electrical current also ener-
gizes the Amber Anti-Lock Warning Lamp Relay
coil. The current flow in the Anti-Lock Warning

Lamp Relay opens the Anti-Lock Warning Lamp Re-
lay switch. This breaks the ground path to the Am-
ber Anti-Lock Warning Lamp and the light is turned
off. The (CAB) by itself, also has the ability to turn on
the Amber Anti-Lock Warning Lamp. The (CAB) can
turn on the Amber Anti-Lock Warning Lamp by pro-
viding a ground at pin 15.
ANTI-LOCK WARNING LAMP ON
System Relay and Anti-Lock Warning Lamp
Relay De-Energized. When the Amber Anti-Lock Warning Lamp is on,
there is no electrical current flow from the (CAB) at
pin 57. The System Relay coil is NOT energized. No
electrical current flows to pin 47 and 41 (modulator
valve power), or to the Anti-Lock Warning Lamp Re-
lay coil. Thus, the Amber Anti-Lock Warning Lamp
is not energized. The Amber Anti-Lock Warning Lamp is grounded through the Anti-Lock Warning
Lamp Relay contacts. The Amber Anti-Lock Warning
Lamp is turned on.
HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS AND VALVE OPERATION
Through the following operation descriptions and
diagrams. The function of the various hydraulic con-
trol valves in the ABS system will be described. The
fluid control valves mentioned below, control the flow
of pressurized brake fluid to the wheel brakes during
the different modes of Anti-Lock braking. For explanation purposes we will assume all speed
sensors are sending the same wheel speed informa-
tion, requiring the same hydraulic fluid modulation
at the same rate.
NORMAL BRAKING
ISOLATION VALVES
Open to primary and secondary master cylinder
fluid supply (Fig. 1)
BUILD/DECAY VALVES Closed (Fig. 1)
The brake pedal is applied. The travel of the brake
pedal closes primary and secondary circuits from the
master cylinder fluid supply. Brake fluid from the
primary and secondary circuits flows through the
open isolation valves, through the build/decay valves
to the wheel brakes.

BENDIX ABS SYSTEMS DIAGNOSTICS
Bendix Anti-Lock 6 Brake System Diagnostics, be-
yond basic mechanical diagnostics, covered earlier in
this section. Are accomplished by using the DRB II
scan tool. See testing procedures outlined in the Ben-
dix Anti-Lock 6 Diagnostics Manual for the 1992
M.Y. vehicles. Please refer to the above mentioned manual for
any further electronic diagnostics and service proce-
dures that are required on the Bendix Anti-Lock 6
Brake System.
ON-CAR ABS BRAKE SYSTEM SERVICE
GENERAL SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
The following are general cautions which should be
observed when servicing the Anti-Lock brake system
and/or other vehicle systems. Failure to observe
these precautions may result in Anti-Lock Brake
System component damage. If welding work is to be performed on the vehicle,
using an electric arc welder, the (CAB) connector
should be disconnected during the welding operation. The (CAB) connector should never be connected or
disconnected with the ignition switch in the ON po-
sition. Many components of the Anti-Lock Brake System
are not serviceable and must be replaced as an as-
sembly. Do not disassemble any component which is
not designed to be serviced.
CHECKING BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
CAUTION: Only use brake fluid conforming to DOT
3 specifications, such as Mopar or Equivalent. Do
not use any fluid which contains a petroleum base.
Do not use a container which has been used for pe-
troleum based fluids or a container which is wet
with water. Petroleum based fluids will cause swell-
ing and distortion of rubber parts in the hydraulic
brake system. Water will mix with brake fluid, low-
ering the fluid boiling point. Keep all brake fluid
containers capped to prevent contamination. Re-
move the front cap of the master cylinder reservoir
and fill to the bottom of the split ring.
For the specific procedure for the inspection of
brake fluid level and adding of brake to the reser-
voir. Refer to the Service Adjustments Section in this
group of the service manual.
BLEEDING BENDIX ANTI-LOCK 6 BRAKE SYSTEM
The Anti-Lock Brake System must be bled anytime
air is permitted to enter the hydraulic system, due to
disconnection of brake lines, hoses of components. If the Modulator Assembly is removed from the ve-
hicle, both the Base Brake System and the Anti-Lock
Brake System must be bled using the appropriate
procedures. It is important to note that excessive air
in the brake system will cause a soft or spongy feel-
ing brake pedal. During bleeding operations, be sure that the brake
fluid level remains close to the FULL level in the
reservoir. Check the fluid level periodically during
the bleeding procedure and add DOT 3 brake fluid as
required. The Bendix Anti-Lock 6 Brake System must be
bled as two independent braking systems. The non
ABS portion of the brake system is to be bled the
same as any non ABS system. Refer to the Service
Adjustments section in this manual for the proper
bleeding procedure to be used. This brake system can
be either pressure bled or manually bled. The Anti-Lock portion of brake system MUST be
bled separately. This bleeding procedure requires the
use of the DRB II Diagnostic tester and the bleeding
sequence procedure outlined below.
ABS BLEEDING PROCEDURE (FIG. 1)
(1) Assemble and install all brake system compo-
nents on vehicle making sure all hydraulic fluid
lines are installed and properly torqued. (2) Bleed the base brake system. Using the stan-
dard pressure or manual bleeding procedure as out-
lined in the Service Adjustments section of this
service manual. To perform the bleeding procedure on the ABS
unit. The battery and acid shield must be removed
from the vehicle. Reconnect the vehicles battery, to
the vehicles positive and negative battery cables us-
ing jumper cables. This is necessary to allow access
to the 4 bleeder screws located on the top of the Mod-
ulator assembly. (3) Connect the DRB II Diagnostics Tester to the
diagnostics connector. Located behind the Fuse Panel
access cover on the lower section of the dash panel to
the left of the steering column. (It is a blue 6 way
connector). (4) Using the DRB II check to make sure the
(CAB) does not have any fault codes stored. If it does
remove them using the DRB II.
