Kickback
1. The motor operates when the ABS is functioning, and the fluid in the reservoir is forced out to the master cylinder
causing kickback at the brake pedal.
2. TheABScontrol unit operates the solenoid valve when the brake pedal is released afterthe initial diagnosis Youmay
hear the faint solenoid valve operation sound at this time. but it is normal.
Pump Motor
1. The pump motor operates when the ABS is functioning
2. The ABS control unit checks the pump motor operation during acceleration. You may hear the faint operation sound
at this time. but it is normal.
Brake Fluid Replacament/Air Blsading
1. Brake fluid replacement and air bleeding procedures are the same as for conventional brakes
Troubleshooting
1. The troubleshooting flowcharts explain the procedures on the assumption that the cause of the problem is still pre-
sent and the ABS indicator light is still on.
Note that troubleshooting following the flowchart when the ABS indicator light does not come on can result in incor-
rect judgment.
2. Ouestion the customer about the conditions when the problem occurred, and try to reproduce the same conditions
for troubleshooting.
self,diagnosis is made at various times such as the initial diagnosis, except ABS control. during ABS control, during
acceleraiion, during the specified vehicle speed, etc. Therefore, the symptom cannot be checked unless the check
conditions match with the problem conditions
3. When the ABS indicator light does not come on during the test drive, but the troubleshooting is performed based on
the DTC, check for the loose connectors. poor contact of the terminals, etc, before troubleshooting.
4. After troubleshooting, erase the DTC and test-drive the car. Be sure that the ABS indicator light does not come on.
5. The connector illustrations show the female connectors with a single outline and the male connectors with a double
ouflrne.
6. The connector terminal cavities containing female terminals are always numbered by looking at the connector from
the wire side. and the cavities containing male terminals are always numbered by looking at the connector from the
terminal side.

Removal
SRS components are located in this area. Review the
SRS component locations, precautions, and procedures
in the SRS section (24) before preforming repairs or ser-
vice.
NOTE:
. An assistant is helpful when removing and installing
the dashboard.
. Take care not to scratch the dashboard, body and
related parts.
1. Remove:
o Front and rear consoles (see page 20-67)
. Console panel (see page 2O 67),
. Driver's dashboard lower cover and knee bolster(see page 20-68)
. Glove box (see page 20-69)
. Center dashboard lower cover (see page 20-69i
2. Lower the steering column (see section 17).
@ To avoid accidental deplovment and
possible injury, always disconnect the driver's
airbag connector belore lowering the steering col-
umn lsee section 241.
NOTE: To prevent damage to the steering column,
wrap it with a shop towel.
3. Disconnect the dashboard wire harness connectors,
remove the nuts, then move the under-dash fuse/
relay box. Disconnect the antenna lead and moon-
roof relay connectors.

Five-step Troubleshooting
2.
1.Verify The Complaint
Turn on all the components in the problem circuit to
verify the customer complaint. Note the symptoms.
Do not begin disassembly or testing until you have
narrowed down the problem area.
Analyze The Schematic
Look up the schematic for the problem circuit.
Determine how the circuit is supposed to work by
tracing the current paths from the power feed
through the circuit components to ground. lf several
circuits fail at the same time, the fuse or ground is a
likely cause.
Based on the symptoms and your understanding of
the circult operation, identify one or more possible
causes of the problem.
lsolate The Problem By Testing The Circuit
Make circuit tests to check the diagnosis you made
in step 2. Keep in mind that a logical, simple proce-
dure is the key to efficient troubleshooting. Test for
the most likely cause of failure first. Try to make
tests at points that are easily accessible.
Fix The Problem
Once the specific problem is identified, make the
repair. Be sure to use proper tools and safe proce-
dures.
Make Sure The Circuit Works
Turn on all components in the repaired circuit in all
modes to make sure you've fixed the entire prob-
lem. lf the problem was a blown fuse, be sure to
test all of the circuits on the fuse, Make sure no new
problems turn up and the original problem does not
recur.
