field of each ABS sensor.  The amount of voltage generated at each wheel is determined by the clearance 
between the ABS rotor teeth and the ABS sensor, and by the speed of rotation. Sends alternating current signals at frequencies which are proportional to the 
rotation speeds of each wheel to the ABS electronic control unit (ABS-ECU).  The ABS hydraulic unit modulates the amount of braking force individually 
applied to each wheel cylinder.  
ABS DTC SET CONDITIONS The ABS-ECU monitors the signals from each ABS sensor while the vehicle is 
being driven. If any faults below are found in these sensor signals, the ECU will set 
the relevant diagnostic trouble code. 
Missing sensor signal  Sensor signal, which will not be created under normal operation  Significant difference among the ABS sensor signals  
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST LIKELY CAUSES FOR THESE DTCS ARE TO SET ARE:)

STEP 7. Check the ABS rotor. 
Check the ABS rotor, which DTC code indicates, for foreign material or 
deformation. 
DTC C1201 is set: Front right ABS sensor  DTC C1206 is set: Front left ABS sensor  DTC C1211 is set: Rear right ABS sensor  DTC C1216 is set: Rear left ABS sensor  
Q: Is the ABS rotor in good condition?  
YES: Go to Step 8.  
NO (front bearing end play is not within the standard value): If the 
ABS rotor is contaminated with foreign material, clean it. If the driveshaft 
is deformed, replace it (Refer to DRIVE SHAFT ASSEMBLY
 , ). Then 
go to Step 16 .  
NO (rear bearing end play is not within the standard value < FWD >):
If the ABS rotor is contaminated with foreign material, clean it. If the 
ABS rotor is deformed, replace it (Refer to REAR AXLE HUB 
ASSEMBLY
 , ). Then go to Step 16 .  
NO (rear bearing end play is not within the standard value < AWD 
>): If the ABS rotor is contaminated with foreign material, clean it. If the 
BJ assembly is deformed, replace it (Refer to DRIVE SHAFT 
ASSEMBLY
 ). Then go to Step 16 .  
STEP 8. Measure the voltage at ABS-ECU connector A-02. 
1. Disconnect the connector A-02, and connect special tool ABS Check 
Harness (MB991970) to the wiring harness-side connector. 
NOTE: Do not connect special tool ABS Check Harness 
(MB991970) to the ABS-ECU.

YES: Go to Step 9.  
NO (When the voltage between terminal 9 or 10 - and body ground 
measures more than 1 V): Go to Step 11 .  
NO (When the voltage between terminal 26 or 16 - and body ground 
measures more than 1 V): Go to Step 12 .  
NO (When the voltage between terminal 11 or 17 - and body ground 
measures more than 1 V): Go to Step 13 .  
NO (When the voltage between terminal 28 or 27 - and body ground 
measures more than 1 V): Go to Step 14 .  
STEP 9. Measure the resistance at ABS-ECU connector A-02. 
1. Disconnect the connector A-02, and connect special tool ABS Check 
Harness (MB991970) to the wiring harness-side connector. 
2. Measure the resistance between the relevant signal and ground terminals 
in the ABS sensor circuit and body ground. OK if there is no continuity. DTC C1201 is set: Between signal terminal 9 and bo
dy ground, and  NOTE: Do not connect special tool ABS Check Harness 
(MB991970) to the ABS-ECU.

Q: Does continuity exist?  
YES (Continuity exists between terminal 9 or terminal 10 and body 
ground): Go to Step 11 .  
YES (Continuity exists between terminal 26 or terminal 16 and body 
ground): Go to Step 12 .  
YES (Continuity exists between terminal 11 or terminal 17 and body 
ground): Go to Step 13 .  
YES (Continuity exists between terminal 28 or terminal 27 and body 
ground): Go to Step 14 .  
NO: Go to Step 10.  
STEP 10. Measure the resistance at ABS-ECU connector A-02. 
1. Disconnect the connector A-02, and connect special tool ABS Check 
Harness (MB991970) to the wiring harness-side connector. 
2. Measure the resistance between the relevant signal and ground terminals 
in the ABS sensor circuit. 
DTC C1201 is set: Between signal terminal 9 and ground terminal 10 DTC C1206 is set: Between signal terminal 26 and ground terminal 
16  DTC C1211 is set: Between signal terminal 11 and ground terminal 
17  DTC C1216 is set: Between signal terminal 28 and ground terminal
