2003 FORD MUSTANG ABS

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Anti-
Lock Control — Traction Control
Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 42 , Anti-
Lock Brake System for schematic and connector information.
Principles of Operation
The anti- lock-brake control module receives wheel speed readings from each anti- lock brake sensor
and processes this information to determine if an ABS event is necessary. The anti- lock brake sensor
electrically senses each tooth of the anti- lock brake sensor indicators as it passes through the anti- lock
brake sensor's magnetic field.
The anti- lock brake control module continuously monitors and compares the rotational speed of each
wheel and, when it detects an impending wheel lock, modulates brake pressure to the appropriate
brake caliper. This is accomplished by triggering the hydraulic control unit (HCU) to open and close the
appropriate solenoid valves. Once the affected wheel returns to normal speed, the anti- lock brake
control module returns the solenoid valves to their normal position, and normal (base) braking
resumes.
The anti- lock brake control module is self- monitoring. When the ignition switch is turned to the RUN
position, the anti- lock brake control module will do a preliminary electrical check, and at approximately
12 km/h (8 mph) the pump motor is turned on for approximately one half- second. Also during all
phases of operation the anti- lock brake control module (after the vehicle is in motion) checks for
correct operation of the anti- lock brake sensors. Any malfunction of the ABS will cause the ABS to shut
off and ABS warning indicator to illuminate; normal power assisted braking, however, remains.
The ABS control module has the ability to store multiple DTCs in memory.
The traction control system controls wheelspin by modulating the engine torque by communicating to
the powertrain control module (PCM) and by applying, then releasing, the appropriate brake to restore
traction when one or both drive wheels lose traction and begin to spin during acceleration.
The traction control system can be disabled by depressing the traction control switch. The traction
control system will reset and return to normal traction assist when the ignition switch is cycled or when
the traction control switch is depressed again. SECTION 206-

Inspection and Verification
1. Verify the customer concern by operating the system.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical and electrical damage.
3. If the concern remains after the inspection, connect the scan tool to the data link connector (DLC) located beneath the instrument panel and select the vehicle to be tested from the scan
tool menu. If the scan tool does not communicate with the vehicle: 1. Check that the program card is correctly installed.
2. Check the connections to the vehicle.
3. Check the ignition switch position.
4. If the scan tool still does not communicate with the vehicle, refer to the scan tool manual.
5. Carry out the DATA LINK DIAGNOSTIC TEST. If the scan tool responds with: 1. CKT914, CKT915 or CKT70 = ALL ECUS NO RESP/NOT EQUIP, refer to Section 418-00.
2. NO RESP/NOT EQUIP for the anti- lock brake control module, Go To Pinpoint Test A .
3. SYSTEM PASSED, retrieve and record the continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs),
erase the continuous DTCs and carry out self- test diagnostics for the anti-lock brake
control module.
6. If the DTCs retrieved are related to the concern, go to the Anti- Lock Brake Control Module
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index to continue diagnostics.
7. If no DTCs related to the concern are retrieved, GO to Symptom Chart to continue diagnostics.
Anti-Lock Brake Control Module Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index
NOTE: If a wheel speed signal fault or a pump motor fault is detected, the yellow ABS warning
indicator cannot be reset with the key OFF and key ON method. The vehicle must be driven over 12
km/h (8 mph) for the anti- lock brake control module to do a re- check of the system before the yellow
ABS warning indicator is turned OFF. Visual Inspection Chart Mechanical Electrical
