Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral PositionAFS001S9
In case of doing work that applies to the list below, make sure to adjust neutral position of steering angle sen-
sor before running vehicle.
× : Required
–: Not required
CAUTION:
To adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor, make sure to use CONSULT-II.
(Adjustment can not be done without CONSULT-II.)
1. Stop vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position.
2. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to data link connector on vehicle, and turn ignition switch ON (do not start engine).
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which performs CAN communication.
3. Touch “ABS”, “WORK SUPPORT” and “ST ANGLE SENSOR ADJUSTMENT” on CONSULT-II screen in this order. Refer to BRC-26, "
CONSULT-II BASIC OPERATION PROCEDURE" .
4. Touch “START”. CAUTION:
Do not touch steering wheel while adjusting steering angle
sensor.
5. After approximately 10 seconds, touch “END”. (After approxi- mately 60 seconds, it ends automatically.)
6. Turn ignition switch OFF, then turn it ON again. CAUTION:
Be sure to perform above operation.
7. Run vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position, then stop.
8. Select “DATA MONITOR”, “SELECTION FROM MENU”, and “STR ANGLE SIG” on CONSULT-II screen. Then make sure “STR ANGLE SIG” is within 0 ±3.5 deg. If value is more than specification, repeat steps 3
to 7.
9. Erase memory of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) and ECM.
10. Turn ignition switch OFF.
Calibration of Decel G Sensor (AWD Model)AFS001TQ
NOTE:
After removing/installing or replacing yaw rate/side/decel G sensor, ABS actuator and electric unit (control
unit), suspension components, or after adjusting wheel alignment, make sure to calibrate of decel G sensor
before running vehicle.
CAUTION:
To calibrate decel G sensor, make sure to use CONSULT-II. (Adjustment can not be done without CON-
SULT-II.)

1. Stop vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position.
CAUTION:

The work should be done at a horizontal place when vehicle is in the unloaded vehicle condi-
tion.

Keep all tires inflated to correct pressures. Adjust the tire pressure to the specified pressure
value.
2. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to data link connector on vehicle, and turn ignition switch ON (do not start engine).
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which performs CAN communication.
3. Touch “ABS”, “WORK SUPPORT” and “DECEL G-SEN CALIBRATION” on CONSULT-II screen in this order. Refer to BRC-26, "
CONSULT-II BASIC OPERATION PROCEDURE" .
4. Touch “START”. CAUTION:
Set vehicle as shown in the display.
5. After approximately 10 seconds, touch “END”. (After approxi- mately 60 seconds, it ends automatically.)
6. Turn ignition switch OFF, then turn it ON again. CAUTION:
Be sure to perform above operation.
7. Run vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position, then stop.
8. Select “DATA MONITOR”, “SELECTION FROM MENU”, and “DECEL G-SEN” on CONSULT-II screen. Then make sure “DECEL G-SEN” is within 0 ±0.08 G. If value is
more than specification, repeat steps 3 to 7.
9. Erase memory of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) and ECM.
10. Turn ignition switch OFF.

Removal and InstallationAFS001Z5
REMOVAL
1. Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector.
2. Loosen brake tube flare nuts, then remove brake tubes from ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
3. Remove LH side fender protector. Refer to EI-24, "
FENDER PROTECTOR" .
4. Remove ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) mounting nuts.
5. Remove ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) from vehicle.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following when removing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).

If the part number on the part number label (pasted on actuator upper surface) is the same, ABS
actuator and electric unit (control unit) can not be used on another vehicle.
If it is used on another vehicle, ABS warning lamp, SLIP indicator lamp and VDC OFF indicator
lamp may turn ON or VDC/TCS/ABS may not operate normally.
When replacing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), must use new service parts.

Before servicing, disconnect battery cables.

To remove brake tube, use a flare nut torque wrench to prevent flare nuts and brake tube from
being damaged. To install, use a flare nut torque wrench (commercial service tool) and tighten to
the specified torque.

Do not apply excessive impact to actuator, such as dropping it.

Do not remove and install ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) by holding harness.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following when installing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).

Tighten the mounting bolts and nuts to the specified torque.

After the work, bleed air from brake piping. Refer to BR-10, "Bleeding Brake System" .
