For Fast and Accurate DiagnosisAFS001SR
PRECAUTIONS FOR DIAGNOSIS
Before performing diagnosis, always read precautions. Refer to BRC-12, "How to Proceed with Diagno-
sis" .
If ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), steering angle sensor, steering system parts or suspension
system parts have been replaced, or if alignment has been adjusted, be sure to adjust neutral position of
steering angle sensor before driving. Refer to BRC-6, "
Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Posi-
tion" .
After diagnosis is finished, be sure to erase memory. Refer to BRC-27, "SELF-DIAGNOSIS" .
When checking continuity and voltage between units, be sure to check for disconnection, looseness,
bend, or collapse of connector terminals. If any malfunction is found, repair or replace connector termi-
nals.
For intermittent symptoms, possible cause is malfunction in harness, harness connector, or terminals.
Move harness, harness connector, and terminals to check for poor connections.
If a circuit tester is used for the check, be careful not to forcibly extend any connector terminal.
To use CONSULT-II to perform self-diagnosis of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), active tests,
or work support, first stop work, then connect CONSULT-II and select “ABS”.
While self-diagnostic results of CONSULT-II shows malfunction, if CONSULT-II active test is performed,
an engine system error may be indicated. In this case, start engine to resume the normal screen.
VDC/TCS/ABS system electronically controls brake operation and engine output. The following symptoms
may be caused by normal operations:
Symptom Symptom description Result
Motor operation noise This is noise of motor inside ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
Slight noise may occur during VDC, TCS, and ABS operation.
Normal
When the vehicle speed goes over 20 km/h (12.5 MPH), motor and
valves operating noise may be heard. It happens only once after IGN
(ignition) is ON. This is a normal status of the system operation check.
System operation check
noise When engine starts, slight “click” noise may be heard from engine room.
This is normal and is part of system operation check. Normal
VDC/TCS operation
(SLIP indicator lamp blink-
ing) TCS may activate momentarily if wheel speed changes when driving
over location where friction coefficient varies, when up/downshifting, or
when fully depressing accelerator pedal.
Normal
Cancel the VDC/TCS
function for the
inspection on a chas-
sis dynamometer.
For inspection of speedometer or other instruments, press
VDC OFF SW to turn VDC/TCS function off.
When accelerator pedal is depressed on a chassis dynamometer (fixed
front-wheel type), vehicle speed will not increase. This is not normal. It is
result of TCS being activated by stationary front wheels. Warning lamp
may also illuminate to indicate “sensor system error”. This is also nor-
mal, and is the result of the stationary front wheels being detected. To be
certain, restart engine, and drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more.
Make sure warning lamp does not illuminate.
ABS operation (Longer stop-
ping distance) On roads with low friction coefficients, such as snowy roads or gravel
roads, vehicles with ABS may require a longer stopping distance. There-
fore, when driving on such roads, avoid overconfidence and keep speed
sufficiently low. Normal
Insufficient feeling of accel-
eration Depending on road conditions, driver may feel that feeling of accelera-
tion is insufficient. This is because traction control, which controls
engine and brakes to achieve optimal traction, has the highest priority
(for safety). As a result, there may be times when acceleration is slightly
less than usual for the same accelerator pedal operation. Normal

Symptom 4: The ABS Function Does Not OperateAFS001TA
CAUTION:
The ABS does not operate when the speed is 10 km/h (6 MPH) or less.
1. CHECK ABS WARNING LAMP DISPLAY
Make sure warning lamp turns off approximately 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON or when driv-
ing.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO symptom 1 “Step 2”. Refer to BRC-53, "Symptom 1: Excessive ABS Function Operation

NG >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-27, "
SELF-DIAGNOSIS" .
Symptom 5: Pedal Vibration or ABS Operation Sound OccursAFS001TB
CAUTION:
Under the following conditions, when brake pedal is lightly depressed (just place a foot on it), ABS is
activated and vibration is felt. However, this is normal.
When shifting gears
When driving on slippery road
During cornering at high speed
When passing over bumps or grooves
When pulling away just after starting engine [at approximately 10 km/h (6 MPH) or higher]
1. SYMPTOM CHECK 1
Check if pedal vibration or operation sound occurs when engine is started.
OK or NG
OK >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-27, "SELF-DIAGNOSIS" .
NG >> GO TO 2.
2. SYMPTOM CHECK 2
Check symptom when electrical component (headlamps, etc.) switches are operated.
Does the symptom occur when the electrical component (head lamp, etc.) switches are operated?
YES >> Check if there is a radio, antenna, antenna lead wire, or wiring close to ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) (or its wiring), and if there is, move it farther away.
NO >> GO TO symptom 1 “Step 2”. Refer to BRC-53, "
Symptom 1: Excessive ABS Function Operation
Frequency" .
Symptom 6: Vehicle Jerks During VDC/TCS/ABS ControlAFS001TC
1. CHECK ENGINE SPEED SIGNAL
Perform CONSULT-II “DATA MONITOR” to check engine speed.
Is engine speed at idle 400 rpm or higher?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2. ABS WARNING LAMP DISPLAY CHECK
Make sure warning lamp turns off approximately 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON or when driv-
ing.
OK or NG
OK >> System is normal.
