DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
1. CHECK WARNING LIGHT
(a) Release the parking brake pedal.
(b) When the ignition switch is turned ON, check that the ABS
warning light, VSC TRAC warning light, VSC OFF (TRAC
OFF) indicator light, BRAKE warning light and SLIP indi-
cator light come on for approx. 3 seconds.
HINT:

When the parking brake is applied or the level of the brake
fluid is low, the BRAKE warning light comes on.

If the indicator check result is not normal, proceed to trou-
bleshooting for the ABS warning light circuit, VSC TRAC
warning light circuit, VSC OFF (TRAC OFF) indicator light
circuit, BRAKE warning light circuit or SLIP indicator light
circuit.

The DTCs are simultaneously stored in the memory. The
DTCs can be read by connecting the SST between TC
and CG terminals of the DLC3 and observing the blinking
of the ABS and VSC warning lights, or by connecting a
hand±held tester.

This system has a sensor signal check function (TEST
MODE) (See page DI±899).
The DTC can be read by connecting the SST between ter-
minals TS and CG of the DLC3 and observing the blinking
of the ABS and VSC TRAC warning lights, or by connect-
ing a hand±held tester.

DTC CHECK / CLEAR
USING SST (CHECK WIRE):
1. CHECK DTC
(a) Using SST, connect terminals Tc and CG of the DLC3.
SST 09843±18040
(b) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(c) Read the DTC from the ABS and VSC TRAC warning
lights on the combination meter.
HINT:

If no code appears, inspect the diagnostic circuit, ABS
warning light circuit or VSC TRAC warning light circuit.

As examples, the blinking patterns for normal system
code and codes 11 and 21 are shown on the left.
(1) Codes are explained in the code table on page
DI±921.
(2) After completing the check, disconnect terminals Tc
and CG of the DLC3, and turn off the display.
If 2 or more trouble codes are identified at the same time, the
DTCs will be displayed in ascending order.
2. CHECK TRANSLATE DTC
HINT:
Once the ignition switch is turned off, all DTCs in the translate
ECU are cleared.
(a) Release the parking brake pedal.
(b) Check the brake fluid level.
(c) Using SST, connect terminals Tc and CG of the DLC3.
SST 09843±18040
(d) Read the DTC of the BRAKE warning light.
NOTICE:
When reading DTCs, be sure to be seated in the driver's
seat and depressing the brake pedal.

When the parking brake is applied or the level of the brake
fluid is low, the BRAKE warning light comes on.

If all sensors are normal, a normal system code is output.
(A cycle of 0.25 sec. ON and 0.25 sec. OFF is repeated.)

If 2 or more trouble codes are identified at the same time,
the codes will be displayed in ascending order.
USING HAND±HELD TESTER:
3. CHECK DTC
(a) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(c) Read the DTC by following the prompts on the tester
screen.
HINT:
Refer to the hand±held tester operator's manual for further de-
tails.

4. CLEAR DTC
(a) Using SST, connect terminals Tc and CG of the DLC3.

(b) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(c) Clear the DTC stored in the ECU by depressing the brake
pedal 8 times or more within 5 seconds.

Cancellation cannot be done by removing the battery cable or
ECU±IG fuse.
USING HAND±HELD TESTER:
5. CLEAR DTC
(a) Hook up the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(c) Operate the hand±held tester to erase the codes.
HINT:
(d) Please refer to the hand±held tester operator's manual

FAIL±SAFE CHART
1. FAIL SAFE OPERATION
If there is a problem with sensor signals or actuator systems, the skid control ECU prohibits power supply
to the ABS & VSC actuator and informs the ECM of VSC system failure.
The ABS & VSC actuator turns off each solenoid and the ECM shuts off VSC control (traction control signal)
from the skid control ECU accordingly, which turns out to be as if the ABS, VSC and TRAC systems were
not installed.
The ABS, VSC, and TRAC control will be prohibited, but EBD control continues as much as possible. If EBD
control is impossible, the brake warning light comes on to warn the driver (See page DI±910).
MalfunctionSymptom
ABS systemABS, BA, TRAC, and VSC control prohibited
BA systemABS, BA, TRAC, and VSC control prohibited
EBD systemABS & EBD control prohibited
TRAC systemTRAC and VSC control prohibited
VSC systemTRAC and VSC control prohibited
HINT:

A malfunction in either the ABS or BA system will result in an identical operation, with ABS, BA, TRAC,
and VSC system control prohibited.

If control is prohibited due to a malfunction during operation, control will be disabled gradually. This
is to avoid sudden vehicle instability.
