Brakes
Fault Indication:
0 ABS MIL lamp illuminates on 'pull-away' or during driving
U:
Possible Causes
Faulty sensor or wiring.
Faulty rotor or wheel bearing installation giving inconsistent signals to
ABS / TC CM.
Fault Diagnosis
Check sensor installation for:
Security of sensor lead fixing bolt.
Damage to sensor lead.
Possible damage to rotor.
Excessive play in wheel bearing.
Intermittent faults caused by poor harness connection or damage.
It is IikelythattheTC MIL lamp andTraction OFF lamp will also illuminate on vehicles with traction control fitted.
Fault Indication:
TC MIL lamp only is still illuminated after ignition switch on and instrument pack self test.
Possible Causes - Faulty throttle position actuator.
Faulty actuator potentiometer.
Faulty wiring.
Fault Diagnosis
Disconnect flying lead to actuator motor bi-pin connector and measure motor resistance, reading should be approxi- mately 1.6Q. Renew actuator if value is excessive or short circuit.
Disconnect actuator potentiometer and measure resistance across pins 1 and 3, reading should be approximately 6.4kQ. Renew actuator if value indicates open or short circuit. If value is correct, operate accelerator pedal while
measuring resistance between pins 1 and 2, readings should vary in accordance with pedal travel.
. With the ignition switch ON, measure voltage across harness connections to potentiometer pins 1 and 3, reading
should be
5V+ 0.5V. If a voltage below 4.5 Vis recorded ensure that supply fuses are intact and all connections secure
before renewing harness.
m: Examine ABS MIL lamp at ignition switch-on. If lamp illuminates briefly, then goes out the supply fuses will
be intact. If lamp does not illuminate at all supply fuses may be blown, or MIL lamp may be faulty.
. Check continuity between harness connection to potentiometer pin 2 and pin 26 of 28-way multi-pug connector to
ABS I TC CM.
Fault Indication:
TC MIL lamp only is still illuminated 8 seconds after ignition switch on.
Possible Causes
Faulty harness or TCS switch.
Fault Diagnosis
= Check pin 18 of 28 way multi-plug connector is not shorted to ground.
