Troubleshooting Precautions
ABS lndicator
1. lf the system is OK. the ABS indicator goes off two seconds after turning the ignition switch ON (ll) without starting
the engine, and then comes on again and goes off after two seconds. This occurs because the ABS control unit is
turned on bv the lG2 oower source.
2. The ABS indicator comes on when the ABS control unit detects a problem in the system. However, even though the
system is operating properly, the ABS indicator will come on under the following conditions.. Onlv drive wheels rotate
. One drive wheel is stuck
. Vehicle spin
. ABS continues to operate for a long time
. Signal disturbance
To determine the actual cause of problem. question the customer about the problem, taking these conditions into
consideration.
3. When a problem is detected and the ABS indicator comes on, there are cases when the indicator stays on until the
ignition switch is turned OFF, and cases when the indicator goes off automatically when the system returns to nor-
mal. For DTCS 61 and 62, the indicator goes off automatically when the system returns normal. For all other codes.
the indicator stays on until the ignition switch is turned OFF.
4. For DTCS 12, 14, 16, '18, 2'1,22, 23, 24,51,52 and 53, the indicator goes off when the vehicle is driven again and the
system is OK after the ignition switch is turned from OFF to ON (ll). However, if the DTC is erased, the CPU is reset
and the indicator goes off right after the engine is started if the system is OK.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
1. lf the CPU cannot be actlvated and the indicator comes on, the DTC is not memorized.
2. The memory can hold any number of DTCS. However, when the same DTC is detected more than once, the later one
is written over the old one. Therefore, when the same problem is detected repeatedly, it is memorized as one DTC.
3. The DTCs are indicated in the order of ascending number, not in the order they occur.
4, The DTCS are memorized in the EEPROM (non-volatile memory). Therefore, the memorized DTCS cannot be canceled
by disconnecting the battery. Perform the specified procedures to erase the DTCS,
S6lt-dirgnosis
1. Self-diagnosis can be classifield into two categories.
. Initial diagnosis: Performed right afterthe enginestansand untiltheABS indicator goes off.. Regular diagnosis: Performed rightafterthe initial diagnosis untilthe ignition switch isturned OFF.
2. When a problem is detected by self-diagnosis, the system
. Turns the fail-safe relay OFF
. Turns the solenoid valve OFF
. Turns the oumo motor OFF
. Turns the ABS indicator ON
Troubleshooting Precautions
Kickback
L 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.
Pump Motol
1. The pump motor operates when the ABS is functioning.
2. The ABS control unit checks the pump motor operation during initial diagnosis and when the vehicle is started. You
mav hear the motor operate at this time, but it is normal
Brake Fluid Replacement/Air Bleeding'1. Brake fluid replacement and air bleeding procedures are the same as vehicles without ABS. To ease bleeding, start
with the front wheels.
Troubleshooting
1. The troubleshooting flowcharts procedures assume that the cause of the problem is still present and the ABS indica-
tor 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.
Find out when the ABS indjcator came on. such as during initial diagnosis. during ABS control, after ABS control,
when vehicle speed was at a certain speed, etc.
3, When the ABS indicator does not come on during the test-drive, but troubleshooting is performed based on the DTC,
check for loose connectors, poor contact at 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 illustrations show the female terminals with a single outline and the male terminals with a double outline.
