ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
4. Touch “START”.
CAUTION:
Do not touch the steering wheel while adjusting the steer-
ing wheel angle sensor.
5. After approximately 10 seconds, touch “END”. (After approxi-
mately 60 seconds, it ends automatically.)
6. Turn the ignition switch OFF, then turn it ON again.
CAUTION:
Make sure to carry out the above operation.
7. Run the vehicle with the front wheels in the straight-ahead posi-
tion, then stop.
8. Select “DATA MONITOR“, “ECU INPUT SIGNALS” on the CON-
SULT-II screen. Then check that the “ST ANGLE SIG” is within
0±2.5deg. If the value is more than the specification, repeat
steps 1 to 5.
9. Erase the memory of ESP/TCS/ABS control unit and ECM.
10. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

GENERAL INFORMATION
●When starting the engine, or just after starting the vehicle, the brake pedal may vibrate or the
motor operating noise may be heard from the engine compartment. This is a normal status of the
operation check.
●The stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without ABS when the vehicle drives on
rough, gravel, or snowy (fresh deep snow) road.
TCS FunctionsEFS0019V
1. With the wheel sensor signals from 4 wheels, the ESP/TCS/ABS control unit detects a wheel spin. If a
wheel spins, the control unit controls brake fluid pressure to the spinning wheel, and cuts the fuel to the
engine. It also closes the throttle valve to reduce the engine torque. Furthermore, throttle position is con-
trolled to the appropriate engine torque.
2. If a wheel spins, the TCS system works and function by applying brake fluid pressure to the spinning
wheel.
3. During TCS operation, it informs a driver of system operation by flashing SLIP indicator lamp.
CAUTION:
●During TCS operation, the body and the brake pedal lightly vibrate and the mechanical noise may
be heard. This is a normal condition.
●Depending on road circumstances, the driver may have a sluggish feel. This is not abnormal,
because the optimum traction has the highest priority by TCS operation.
●When the vehicle is passing through a road where the surface friction coefficient varies, down-
shifting or depressing the accelerator pedal fully may activate TCS temporarily.
ESP FunctionsEFS0019W
1. The Electronic Stability Program is called the ESP for short.
The ESP is indicated as the VDC (the Vehicle Dynamics Control) on the CONSULT-II screen.
2. In addition to the ABS/TCS function, ESP detects the driver's steering operation amount and brake opera-
tion amount from the steering wheel angle sensor and pressure sensor. Using the information from the
yaw rate and side G sensor and wheel sensors, ESP judges the driving condition (conditions of under-
steer and oversteer) to improve the stability by controlling the brake on 4 wheels and engine output.
3. During ESP operation, the SLIP indicator lamp flashes to inform the driver of the operation.
CAUTION:
●During ESP operation, the body and the brake pedal lightly vibrate and their mechanical noise
may be heard. This is a normal condition.
●If the vehicle is rotated on a turn table, or rolled and rocked on a ship, the ABS warning lamp,
ESP OFF indicator lamp, and SLIP indicator lamp may turn ON. In this case, start the engine on a
normal road again. If the ABS warning lamp, ESP OFF indicator lamp, and SLIP indicator lamp
turn OFF after the restart, it is normal.
●When driving in a steep slope such as a bank, the ABS warning lamp, ESP OFF indicator lamp,
and SLIP indicator lamp may turn ON. In this case, start the engine on a normal road again. If the
ABS warning lamp, ESP OFF indicator lamp, and SLIP indicator lamp turn OFF after the restart, it
is normal.

CAN COMMUNICATION
CAN COMMUNICATION
PFP:23710
System DescriptionEFS002AW
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
