Symptom Diagnosis
The symptoms that cannot be indicated by the warning
light can be divided in the following five categories:
1. ABS works frequently but vehicle does not
decelerate.
2. Uneven braking occurs while ABS works.
3. The wheels lock during braking.4. Brake pedal feel is abnormal.
5. Braking sound (from EHCU) is heard while not
braking.
These are all attributable to problems which cannot be de-
tected by EHCU self-diagnosis. Use the customer com-
plaint and a test to determine which symptom is present.
Then follow the appropriate flow chart listed below.

Diagnosis By “ABS” Warning Light

In the event that there is abnormality in the “ABS” warning
light illumination pattern while the key is in the ON position
or if the warning light is actuated during driving, trouble
should be diagnosed on a illumination pattern basis as
follows:
No.

Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
When the warning light in the meter remains ON, the
EHCU stores the fault identification and disables the
ABS.
1. How to display and erase DTCs:
NOTE:
If DTCs are not displayed, harness C-4 connector
terminal 30 and I-10 connector terminal 2 may be
disconnected. Repair the harness and try DTC
display again.
DTCs can be displayed also by TECH 2. Select mode
“F0: Diagnostic Trouble Codes” from Application
Menu.
1. How to start DTC display:
Confirm that the vehicle has come to a complete
stop (with the wheels standing still) and that the
brake pedal is not depressed. (Unless these two
conditions are satisfied, DTC display cannot be
started.)
With IGN OFF, connect #12 terminal with #4
terminal or # 5 terminal (GND) . Then turn IGN ON.
Page 4391 of 6000
5A–41 BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM
The DLC is located behind the center console
350RV010
Keep #12 terminal connected with #4 terminal or # 5
terminal (GND) during DTC display. (If #12 terminal
is separated from #4 terminal or # 5 terminal (GND)
during display, display will stop.)
2. DTC display:
DTC is displayed by blinking warning light.
Double-digit display.
First, normal DTC 12 is displayed three times and
then any other DTCs are displayed three times. (If
no other DTCs have been stored, the display of DTC
12 will be repeated.)
3. How to erase code:
Conduct brake switch ON/OFF operation 6 or more
times within 3 seconds of self-diagnosis startup.
The code cannot be erased if more than 3 seconds
have passed since self-diagnosis startup, or if
self-diagnosis has started with brake switched on
(brake pedal depressed).

4. Notes
If the following should occurs during Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) display the display will be
discontinued. After initial check, the status that is
under the control of ABS will be returned :
– The vehicle starts (The wheels turn) or the brake
pedal is depressed.
Up to 3 different codes can be stored.
If the ABS should turn OFF due to an intermittent
defect, the system will be restored at the next key
cycle, if the initial check finds no abnormality (when
IGN is switched from OFF to ON).
5. An example of DTC display
Display of DTC 23
B05RW006
After displaying DTC 12 three times, one DTC after
another is displayed, starting with the most recent
one. (However, display is discontinued after about 5
minutes.)
B05RS005
The DTC 12 is displayed repeatedly. (display is
discontinued after about 5 minutes)
