TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR SELF-DIAGNOSTIC ITEMSPFP:00000
Wheel Sensor System InspectionEFS003QY
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. CONNECTOR INSPECTION
Disconnect the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector E125 and wheel sensor of malfunction-
ing code.
Check the terminals for deformation, disconnection, looseness or damage.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Repair or replace as necessary.
2. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR OUTPUT SIGNAL
1. Connect ABS active wheel sensor tester (J-45741) to wheel sensor using appropriate adapter.
2. Turn on the ABS active wheel sensor tester power switch.
NOTE:
The green POWER indicator should illuminate. If the POWER indicator does not illuminate, replace the
battery in the ABS active wheel sensor tester before proceeding.
3. Spin the wheel of the vehicle by hand and observe the red SENSOR indicator on the ABS active wheel
sensor tester. The red SENSOR indicator should flash on and off to indicate an output signal.
NOTE:
If the red SENSOR indicator illuminates but does not flash, reverse the polarity of the tester leads and
retest.
Does the ABS active wheel sensor tester detect a signal?
Yes >> GO TO 3.
No >> Replace the wheel sensor. Refer to BRC-64, "
Removal and Installation" .
3. CHECK TIRES
Check for inflation pressure, wear and size of each tire.
Are tire pressure and size correct and is tire wear within specifications?
Yes >> GO TO 4.
No >> Adjust tire pressure or replace tire(s).
4. CHECK WHEEL BEARINGS
Check wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to FAX-5, "
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION" or RAX-5, "WHEEL
BEARING INSPECTION" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 5.
NG >> Repair or replace as necessary. Refer to FAX-5, "
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION" or RAX-5,
"WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION" .
5. CHECK WIRING HARNESS FOR SHORT CIRCUIT
1. Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connec-
tor and wheel sensor connector of malfunction code No.
2. Check resistance between wheel sensor harness connector ter-
minals and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 6.
NG >> Repair the circuit.Continuity should not exist.

Removal and InstallationEFS003RO
REMOVAL
1. Remove wheel sensor mounting screw.

When removing the front wheel sensor, first remove the disc rotor to gain access to the front wheel sen-
sor mounting bolt. Refer to BR-22, "
Removal and Installation of Brake Caliper and Disc Rotor" .

When removing the rear wheel sensor, first remove the rear hub and bearing assembly to gain access
to the rear wheel sensor mounting bolt. Refer to RAX-5, "
Removal and Installation" .
2. Pull out the sensor, being careful to turn it as little as possible.
CAUTION:

Do not pull on the sensor harness.
3. Disconnect wheel sensor harness electrical connector, then remove harness from mounts.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal. Tighten wheel sensor bolt to the specified torque.
CAUTION:
Installation should be performed while paying attention to the following.

Inspect wheel sensor O-ring, replace sensor assembly if damaged.

Before installing wheel sensor, make sure no foreign materials (such as iron fragments) are
adhered to the pick-up part of the sensor, to the inside of the sensor mounting hole or on the rotor
mounting surface.

Apply a coat of suitable grease to the wheel sensor O-ring and mounting hole.

CAUTION:
To install, use a flare nut wrench (commercial service tool).

Always tighten brake tubes to specification when installing. Refer to BR-12, "BRAKE PIPING AND
HOSE" .

Never reuse drained brake fluid.

After installation of the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), refill brake system with new
brake fluid. Then bleed the air from the system. Refer to BR-11, "
Bleeding Brake System" .

After installation of ABS actuator, adjust steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-62, "Adjustment of
Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .

After installation of ABS actuator, calibrate the decel G sensor. Refer to BRC-62, "Calibration of
Decel G Sensor" .

CAUTION:

Do not use power tools to remove or install yaw rate/side/
decel G sensor.

Do not drop or strike the yaw rate/side/decel G sensor.
3. Disconnect harness connector and remove the yaw rate/side/
decel G sensor.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:

Do not drop or strike the yaw rate/side/decel G sensor.

10. Lift up and remove the radiator.
CAUTION:
Do not damage or scratch air conditioner condenser and
radiator core when removing.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

Check for leaks of engine coolant. Refer to CO-8, "CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS" .

Start and warm up the engine. Visually make sure that there are no leaks of the engine coolant.
Checking RadiatorEBS00NKC
Check radiator for mud or clogging. If necessary, clean radiator as follows.
CAUTION:

Be careful not to bend or damage the radiator fins.

When radiator is cleaned without removal, remove all surrounding parts such as cooling fan, radi-
ator shroud and horns. Then tape the harness and electrical connectors to prevent water from
entering.
1. Apply water by hose to the back side of the radiator core vertically downward.
2. Apply water again to all radiator core surfaces.
3. Stop washing when dirt and debris no longer flow out from the radiator.
4. Blow air into the back side of radiator core vertically downward.

Use compressed air lower than 490 kPa (5 kg/cm2 , 71 psi) and keep distance more than 30 cm (11.8
in).
5. Blow air again into all the radiator core surfaces until no water sprays out.
