D: ABS SEQUENCE CONTROL
1) Under the ABS sequence control, after the hydraulic
unit solenoid valve is driven, the operation of the hydraulic
unit can be checked by means of the brake tester or pres-
sure gauge.
2) ABS sequence control can be started by diagnosis con-
nector or select monitor.

6 of the diagnosis connector beside driver’s seat heater
unit.
2) Set the speed of all wheels at 4 km/h (2 MPH) or less.
3) Turn ignition switch OFF.

out, depress the brake pedal and hold it immediately after
ignition switch is turned to ON.
CAUTION:
Do not depress the clutch pedal.
NOTE:

When the ignition switch is set to on, the brake pedal
must not be depressed.

Engine must not operate.
5) After completion of ABS sequence control, turn ignition
switch OFF.
2. OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES OF THE ABS
SEQUENCE CONTROL WITH SELECT MONITOR
1) Connect select monitor to data link connector beside
driver’s seat heater unit.
2) Turn ignition switch ON.
3) Put select monitor to ABS mode.

3. CONDITIONS FOR COMPLETION OF ABS
SEQUENCE CONTROL
When the following conditions develop, the ABS sequence
control stops and ABS operation is returned to the normal
control mode.
1) When the speed of at least one wheel reaches 10 km/h
(6 MPH).
2) When terminal No. 3 or No. 6 are separated from diag-
nosis terminals. (When select monitor is not used.)
3) When the brake pedal is released during sequence con-
trol and the braking lamp switch is set to off.
4) When brake pedal is depressed after ignition key is
turned to ON, and before ABS warning light goes out.
(When select monitor is not used.)
5) When brake pedal is not depressed after ignition key is
turned to ON, and within 0.5 seconds after ABS warning
light goes out. (When select monitor is not used.)

Process
No.Process name Job contents
9 WeldingUsing a heater gun and PP welding rod, weld the beveled spot while melting the rod and damaged
area.
G5M0167
NOTE:

Melt the sections indicated by hatched area.

Do not melt welding rod until it flows out, in order to provide strength.

Always keep the heater gun 1 to 2 cm (0.4 to 0.8 in) away from the welding spot.

Leave the welded spot unattended until it cools completely.
10 Sanding (II)Remove excess part of weld with a putty knife. If a drill or disc wheel is used instead of the knife,
operate it at a rate lower than 1,500 rpm and grind the excess part little by little. A higher rpm will
cause the PP substrate to melt from the heat.
G5M0168
Sand the welded spot smooth with #240 sand paper.
11 MaskingMask the black substrate section using masking tape.
Recommended masking tape: Nichiban No. 533 or equivalent
12 Cleaning/degreasing Completely clean the entire coated area, using solvent similar to that used in process No. 4.
13 Primer coatingApply a coat of primer to the repaired surface and its surrounding areas. Mask these areas, if neces-
sary.
Recommended primer: Mp/ 364 PP primer
NOTE:
Be sure to apply one coat of primer at a spraying pressure of 245 to 343 kPa (2.5 to 3.5 kg/cm
2,36
to 50 psi) with a spray gun.
14 Leave unattended.Leave the repaired area unattended at 20°C (68°F) for 10 to 15 minutes until primer is half-dry.
NOTE:
If dirt or dust comes in contact with the coated area, wipe it off with a cloth dampended with alcohol.
(Do not use thinner since the coated area tends to melt.)
15Primer surfacer
coatingApply a coat of primer surfacer to the repaired area two or three times at an interval of 3 to 5 min-
utes.
Recommended surfacer:
UPS 300 Flex primer

No. 303 UPS 300 Exclusive hardener

NPS 725 Exclusive reducer (thinner)

Mixing ratio:2:1(UPS 300: No. 303)

Viscosity: 12—14 sec/20°C (68°F)

Coated film thickness: 40—50µ
16 Drying Allow the coated surface to dry for 60 minutes at 20°C (68°F) [or 30 minutes at 60°C (140°F)].
17 Sanding (III) Sand the coated surface and its surrounding areas using #400 sand paper and water.

4. Front Sensor
CAUTION:
If the front end of the vehicle body is damaged by a
collision, be sure to check the left and right front
sensors, even if the airbag was not inflated. If any dam-
age to the sensor or any deformation of the sensor
mount is found, replace with a new genuine part.
G5M0310
When painting or performing sheet metal work on
the front part of vehicle body, including the front wheel
apron, front fender and front side frame, take utmost
care not to apply dryer heat, painting mist, or the flame
of the welding burner directly to the front sensors and
wire harness of the airbag system.
