HOW TO ERASE SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
To facilitate cause investigation of malfunction that is less likely to
reappear, the TCM always stores self-diagnostic results during cus-
tomer operation. This memory cannot be erased even if ignition
switch
is turned ON and OFF repeatedly. To erase the seif-diag-
nostic
results, turn ignition switch
OFF after self-diagnosis has
been performed, or use
"ERASE" function of CONSULT.

Precautions for Trouble Diagnosis
After performing trouble diagnosis, be sure to erase trouble stored in memory. Refer to "CONSULT' (next
page) or "SELF-DIAGNOSIS"
(BR-15).
As for the concerns that are difficult to duplicate, move harnesses or harness connectors by hand to check
if there is any poor mating of connector halves or faulty connection.
Do not force to open a connector terminal when using a circuit tester for inspection.
Read GI section thoroughly in advance and make sure of all the general precautions.
Basic Inspection
BASIC INSPECTION 1 - Brake fluid level and leakage AT
1. Check brake fluid level in reservoir tank. Replenish brake fluid if necessary.
2. Check for leakage at or around brake piping and ABS actuator. If leakage or seepage is noted, proceed
as follows:
If ABS actuator connectors are loose, tighten to specified torque. Recheck to ensure that leakage is no
longer present.
If flare nut threads at piping connectors or actuator threads are damaged, replace faulty parts with new 87
ones. Recheck to ensure that leakage is no longer present.
If brake fluid leaks through areas other than actuator connectors, wipe off using a clean cloth. Recheck
for leakage or seepage. If necessary, replace faulty parts with new ones.
R8
If brake fluid leaks at or seeps through ABS actuator, wipe off using a clean cloth. Recheck for leakage
or seepage. If necessary, replace
ABS actuator with new one.
CAUTION: HA
ABS actuator cannot be disassembled. Do not attempt to disassemble it.
BASIC INSPECTION 2 - Loose power line terminal
Check battery terminals (positive and negative) and battery mounting (ground) for looseness.
BASIC INSPECTION 3 - ABS warning lamp
1. Turn ignition switch "ON" to ensure that ABS warning lamp lights up for approximately 1 second. If ABS
warning lamp does not light, check ABS warning lamp circuit.
2. After driving vehicle at approx. 30 km/h for approx. 1 minute, check to ensure that ABS warning lamp
remains off. If ABS warning lamp lights, perform self-diagnosis procedures.
3. After performing self-diagnosis procedures, be sure to erase trouble stored in memory.
