2. When using the hand±held tester:
SENSOR CHECK (TEST MODE)
NOTICE:
When having replaced the master cylinder pressure, yaw
rate and deceleration sensors and/or ECU, perform zero
point calibration of the master cylinder pressure, yaw rate
and deceleration sensors (See page DI±897). Make sure
that this operation is done before performing the following.
(a) Procedures for test mode:
(1) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(2) Check that the shift lever is in the P position, and
turn the steering wheel to the neutral position.
(3) Start the engine.
(4) Select the SIGNAL CHECK on the hand±held tes-
ter.
(5) Check that the ABS warning light and VSC TRAC
warning light blink.
HINT:
If the ABS and VSC TRAC warning lights do not blink, inspect
the ABS warning light circuit, VSC TRAC warning light circuit
and Ts terminal circuit.
(6) Keep the vehicle in a stationary condition on a level
surface for 4 sec. or more.

VSC TRAC warning light circuitDI±1027 or DI±1031
Ts terminal circuitDI±1057
(b) Check the yaw rate and deceleration sensor.
Shift the shift lever to the D position and drive the vehicle
at a vehicle speed of approx. 3 mph (5 km/h), turn the
steering wheel either to the left or right for 90° or more,
and turn the vehicle through 180 degrees. Check that the
VSC buzzer sounds for 3 seconds upon start off.
Stop the vehicle and shift the shift lever to the P position,
check that the VSC buzzer sounds again for 3 seconds.

HINT:

If the VSC buzzer sounds twice, the sensor check has
been completed normally.

If the VSC buzzer does not sound, check the VSC buzzer
circuit (see page DI±1052), then do the sensor check
again.

Drive the vehicle through 180°. At the end of the turn its
check, the direction of the vehicle should be within 180°
± 5° of its start position.

Do not spin the wheels.

If the buzzer sounds after start off, then the deceleration
sensor check has passed its check. If the buzzer sounds
at the completion of a turn its check, then the yaw rate
sensor check has passed. The buzzer sound should be
heard during the sensor checks.
(c) Check the master cylinder pressure sensor.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(2) Keep the vehicle in a stationary condition on a level
surface for 2 sec. or more.
(3) Keeping the vehicle in a stationary condition and
not pressing on the brake pedal for 1 sec. or more,
depress the brake pedal with 147 N (15 kgf, 33 lbf)
or more for 2 sec. or more on a new ECU.
NOTICE:
If zero point calibration has never been performed on a new
ECU, master cylinder pressure sensor check cannot be
completed correctly. Perform zero point calibration first
(See page DI±897).
HINT:
At this time, the buzzer sounds for 3 seconds.
(d) Check the speed sensor.
Drive the vehicle straight forward.
When driving the vehicle at the speed of 28 mph (45 km/h)
or higher for several seconds, check that the ABS warn-
ing light goes off.
HINT:
There is a case that the sensor check is not completed if the ve-
hicle has its wheels spun or its steering wheel turned during this
check.
(e) Stop the vehicle.
(f) 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.

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.

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).

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.

NOTICE:

When removing parts, turn the ignition switch OFF.

When replacing the master cylinder, yaw rate and deceleration sensors and/or the ECU, make
sure to perform master cylinder, yaw rate and deceleration sensors' zero point calibration (See
page DI±897).
HINT:

Using SST 09843±18040, connect terminals Tc and CG.

If no abnormality is found when inspecting parts, inspect the ECU.

If a trouble code is displayed during the DTC check, check the circuit listed for that code. For details
