C: CHECKING THE HYDRAULIC UNIT ABS
OPERATION
1. CHECKING THE HYDRAULIC UNIT ABS
OPERATION BY PRESSURE GAUGE
1) Lift-up vehicle and remove wheels.
2) Disconnect the air bleeder screws from the FL and FR
caliper bodies.
B4M0633A
3) Connect two pressure gauges to the FL and FR caliper
bodies.
CAUTION:

Pressure gauges used exclusively for brake fluid
must be used.

Do not employ pressure gauge previously used for
transmission since the piston seal is expanded which
may lead to malfunction of the brake.
NOTE:
Wrap sealing tape around the pressure gauge.
4) Bleed air from the pressure gauges.
5) Perform ABS sequence control.
6) When the hydraulic unit begins to work, and first the FL
side performs decompression, holding, and compression,
and then the FR side performs decompression, holding,
and compression.
7) Read values indicated on the pressure gauge and
check if the fluctuation of the values between decompres-
sion and compression meets the standard values. Also
check if any irregular brake pedal tightness is felt.
Initial value When decompressed When compressed
Front wheel 3,432 kPa (35 kg/cm
2, 498 psi)490 kPa (5 kg/cm2, 71 psi)
or less981 kPa (10 kg/cm2, 142 psi)
or more
Rear wheel 3,432 kPa (35 kg/cm
2, 498 psi)490 kPa (5 kg/cm2, 71 psi)
or less981 kPa (10 kg/cm2, 142 psi)
or more
8) Remove pressure gauges and air bleeder screws from
the RL and RR caliper bodies.
9) Connect the air bleeder screws hose to the FL and FR
caliper bodies.
10) Connect two pressure gauges to the RL and RR cali-
per bodies.
11) Bleed air from the pressure gauges and the FL and FR
caliper bodies.
12) Perform ABS sequence control. [W20D0].>
13) When the hydraulic unit begins to work, at first the RR
side performs decompression, holding, and compression,
and then the RL side performs decompression, holding,
and compression.
14) Read values indicated on the pressure gauges and
check if they meet the standard value.

15) After checking, remove the pressure gauges from cali-
per bodies.
16) Connect the air bleeder screws to RL and RR caliper
bodies.
17) Bleed air from brake line.
2. CHECKING THE HYDRAULIC UNIT ABS
OPERATION WITH BRAKE TESTER
1) Prepare for operating ABS sequence control. 4-4 [W20D1] or 4-4 [W20D2].>
G4M0464
2) Set the front wheels or rear wheels on the brake tester
and set the select lever’s position at“neutral”.
3) Operate the brake tester.
4) Perform ABS sequence control. step 1 or 4-4 [W20D2] step 1.>
5) Hydraulic unit begins to work; and check the following
working sequence.
(1) The front left wheel performs decompression,
holding, and compression in sequence, and subse-
quently the front right wheel repeats the cycle.
(2) The rear right wheel performs decompression,
holding, and compression in sequence, and subse-
quently the rear left wheel repeats the cycle.
6) Read values indicated on the brake tester and check if
the fluctuation of values, when decompressed and
compressed, meet the standard values.
Unit: N (kg, lb)
Initial value When decompressed When compressed
Front wheel981—1,471
(100—150, 221—331)245 (25, 55) or less 588 (60, 132) or more
Rear wheel981—1,471
(100—150, 221—331)245 (25, 55) or less 588 (60, 132) or more
7) After checking, also check if any irregular brake pedal
tightness is felt.

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.
B4M0082C
1. OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES OF THE ABS
SEQUENCE CONTROL WITH DIAGNOSIS
CONNECTOR
1) Connect diagnosis terminals to terminal No. 4 of the
diagnosis connector beside driver’s seat heater unit.
2) Ignition switch is turned to ON.
3) Make sure only the start code (code 11) is shown in
normal condition.
NOTE:
When trouble codes are stored in memory, repair the faulty
parts.
4) Set the speed of all wheels at 10 km/h (6 MPH) or less.
5) Turn ignition switch OFF.
6) Within 0.5 seconds after the ABS and TCS warning
lights go out, depress the brake pedal and hold it immedi-
ately after engine starts.
NOTE:

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

Engine must operate.

If brake pedal is not depressed within 0.5 seconds after
ABS and TCS warning lights go out, the trouble code mode
comes on.
7) 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) Engine starts.
3) Put select monitor to TCS mode.
4) put select monitor to FBI mode. Make sure code 11 is
indicated.
NOTE:
When trouble codes are stored in memory, repair the faulty
parts.
