System DescriptionEFS001CJ
ABS FUNCTION
lDuring ABS operation, brake pedal lightly vibrates and its mechanical noise may be heard. This is a nor-
mal condition.
lWhen starting engine, or just after starting vehicle, brake pedal may vibrate. Also motor operating noise
may be heard from engine compartment. This is a normal status of operation check.
lWhen vehicle drives on rough, gravel, or snowy (fresh deep snow) road, the following conditions occur.
Stopping distance may be longer than that of vehicles without ABS.
4WD FUNCTION
lElectronically controlled 4WD is controlled by the same control module as that for ABS (4WD/ABS control
unit). 4WD/ABS control unit controls both electronically-controlled 4WD and ABS, based on input signals
from several sensors.
lIf electrical system-related malfunction occurred in 4WD/ABS system, control unit illuminates the following
lamps: 4WD warning lamp and/or ABS warning lamp on meter control unit assembly. This notifies driver of
malfunction. At the same time, control unit indicates malfunctioning part detected by self-diagnosis with
flashing pattern of LED. Indication on electronic system diagnosis tester (CONSULT) corresponds to this
flashing pattern as shown below.

SELF-DIAGNOSIS
Operation procedure
1. After obtaining customer's information, performBRC-32, "Basic Inspection".
2. After turning ignition switch OFF, connect CONSULT-II connec-
tor to data link connector on vehicle.
3. Start engine and drive at Approx. 30 km/m (19 MPH) for Approx.
1minute.
4. Stop vehicle. With engine at idle, touch “START”, “ABS” and
“SELF-DIAG RESULTS” on CONSULT-II screen in this order.
CAUTION:
“ABS” may not be displayed on the system selection
screen in the following case: When “START” was touched
justafterengineisstartedorignitionswitchisturnedto
ON. In this case, repeat procedure from step 2.
5. Self-diagnosis result is displayed. (If necessary, touch “PRINT” to print self-diagnosis result.)
lIf“NO MALFUNCTION”is displayed, check ABS warning lamp. Refer toBRC-32, "BASIC INSPECTION
3 ABS/4WD WARNING LAMP INSPECTION".
6. Check the faulty part indicated by the chart to repair or replace.
7. Start engine and drive at Approx. 30 km/m (19 MPH) for Approx. 1 minute.
CAUTION:
lCheck again to make sure that there is NO FAILURE on other parts.
lIf wheel speed sensor [SHORT] is detected, ABS warning lamp does not turn off until following
conditions: Vehicle is driven at Approx. 30km/h for Approx. 1 minute, even in normal conditions.
8. Turn OFF ignition switch to prepare for erasing memory.
9. Start engine. Touch “START,” “ABS,” “SELF-DIAG RESULTS,” and “ERASE MEMORY” on CONSULT-II
screen in this order to erase fault memory.
CAUTION:
If memory cannot be erased, proceed to 6.
10. Drive at Approx. 30 km/m (19 MPH) for Approx. 1 minute. Be sure ABS warning lamp is OFF.
