1998 HONDA CR-V front

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. The ABS control unit operates the solenoid valve when the brake pedal is released after the initial diagnosis You may
hear the solenoid valve operate at this time, but it is normal
Pumo Motol
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 motor operate at this
time, but it is normal.
Brake Fluid Replacement/Ail Bleeding
L Brake fluid replacement and air bleeding procedures are the same as for vehicles without ABS To ease bleeding, start
with the front wheels.
Troubleshooting
1. The troubleshooting flowchart procedures assume that the cause of the problem is still present and the ABS indicator
is still on. Following the flowchart when the ABS indicator does not come on can result in incorrect diagnosis.
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
acceleration, during the specified vehicle speed, etc. Therefore, the symptom canngt be checked unless the check
conditions match with the problem conditjons
3. When the ABS jndicator does not come on during the test-drive. but troubleshooting is performed based on the DTC,
check lor loose connectors, poor contact of the terminals, etc., before you start troubleshooting.
4. After troubleshooting, erase the DTC and test-drive the vehicle. Be sure the ABS indicator does not come on.
5. The connector illustratjons show the female terminals with a single outline and the male terminals with a double out-
l ne.
ABS Function Test
To simulate ABS operation and activate the solenoid valves and pump, use the Honda PGM Tester.
Connect the PGM Tester to the 16P Data Link Connector (DLC). When the System Select menu is displayed, select the ABS
Test Mode menu, and follow the tester's prompts.
