10L1CHECK OUTPUT OF ABS SENSOR
USING SELECT MONITOR.
Read the ABS sensor output corresponding to the faulty
system in the select monitor function mode.
NOTE:
The select monitor display shows that the front right wheel
is rotating at 30 km/h.
: Does the speed indicated on the display
change in response to the speedometer
reading during acceleration/deceleration
when the steering wheel is in the straight-
ahead position?
: Go to step10L2.
: Go to step10L8.
10L2CHECK POOR CONTACT IN CONNEC-
TORS.
Turn ignition switch to OFF.
: Is there poor contact in connectors between
ABSCM&H/U and ABS sensor?
: Repair connector.
: Go to step10L3.
10L3
CHECK SOURCES OF SIGNAL NOISE.
: Is the car telephone or the wireless trans-
mitter properly installed?
: Go to step10L4.
: Properly install the car telephone or the wireless
transmitter.
10L4
CHECK SOURCES OF SIGNAL NOISE.
: Are noise sources (such as an antenna)
installed near the sensor harness?
: Install the noise sources apart from the sensor
harness.
: Go to step10L5.

10M1CHECK IF THE WHEELS HAVE TURNED
FREELY FOR A LONG TIME.
: Check if the wheels have been turned freely
for more than one minute, such as when the
vehicle is jacked-up, under full-lock corner-
ing or when tire is not in contact with road
surface.
: The ABS is normal. Erase the trouble code.
NOTE:
When the wheels turn freely for a long time, such as when
the vehicle is towed or jacked-up, or when steering wheel
is continuously turned all the way, this trouble code may
sometimes occur.
: Go to step10M2.
10M2
CHECK TIRE SPECIFICATIONS.
Turn ignition switch to OFF.
: Are the tire specifications correct?
: Go to step10M3.
: Replace tire.
10M3
CHECK WEAR OF TIRE.
: Is the tire worn excessively?
: Replace tire.
: Go to step10M4.
10M4
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE.
: Is the tire pressure correct?
: Go to step10M5.
: Adjust tire pressure.
10M5CHECK INSTALLATION OF ABS SEN-
SOR.
Tightening torque:
32±10 N⋅m (3.3±1.0 kg-m, 24±7 ft-lb)
: Are the ABS sensor installation bolts tight-
ened securely?
: Go to step10M6.
: Tighten ABS sensor installation bolts securely.
