ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK BATTERY CONDITION
NOTICE:
If the battery is weak or if the engine is difficult to
start, perform the following procedures.
(a) Check the battery for damage and deformation. If
severe damage, deformation or leakage is found,
replace the battery.
(b) Check the electrolyte quantity of each cell.
(1) For maintenance-free batteries:
• If the electrolyte quantity is below the lower
line, replace the battery.
• If the electrolyte quantity is above the lower
line, check the battery voltage when
cranking the engine. If the voltage is less
than 9.6 V, recharge or replace the battery.
HINT:
Before checking the battery voltage, turn off
all the electrical systems (headlights, blower
motor, rear defogger, etc.).
(2) For non-maintenance-free batteries:
• If the electrolyte quantity is below the lower
line, add distilled water to each cell. Then,
recharge the battery and check the
electrolyte's specific gravity.
Standard specific gravity:
1.25 to 1.29 at 20
C (68F)
If the electrolyte quantity is above the lower
line, check the battery voltage when
cranking the engine. If the voltage is less
than 9.6 V, recharge or replace the battery.
HINT:
Before checking the battery voltage, turn off
all the electrical systems (headlights, blower
motor, rear defogger, etc.).
2. INSPECT BATTERY TERMINAL AND FUSE
(a) Visually check the battery terminals.
(1) Check that the battery terminals are not loose
or corroded.
(b) Measure the resistance of the H-fuses and fuses.
Standard resistance:
Below 1
If the results are not as specified, replace the fuses
as necessary.

8. INSPECT CHARGING CIRCUIT WITH LOAD
(a) With the engine running at 2,000 rpm, turn the high
beam headlights ON and turn the heater blower
switch to the "HI" position.
(b) Check the reading on the ammeter.
Standard amperage:
30 A or more
If the ammeter reading is less than the standard
amperage, repair the generator.
HINT:
If the battery is fully charged, the indication will
sometimes be less than the standard amperage. If
this is the case, add more electrical load (operate
the wipers, rear window defogger, etc.) and check
the reading on the ammeter again.

BRAKE CONTROL – VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEMBC–19
BC
4. FAIL SAFE FUNCTION
(a) When a failure occurs in the ABS with BA, TRC and
VSC systems, the ABS and VSC warning lights
illuminate, the slip indicator light comes on*1 or
remains off*2, and the operations of those systems
are prohibited. In addition to this, when a failure
which disables the EBD operation occurs, the brake
warning light comes on and its operation is
prohibited.
HINT:
*1: for 2WD
*2: for 4WD
(b) If control is prohibited due to a malfunction during
operation, control is disabled gradually to avoid
sudden vehicle instability.
5. INITIAL CHECK
(a) When the vehicle speed first reaches approximately
6 km/h (4 mph) or more after the ignition switch is
turned ON, each solenoid valve and the motor of the
ABS and TRACTION actuator are sequentially
activated to perform electrical checks. During the
initial check, the operating sound of the solenoid
valve and motor can be heard from the engine
compartment, but this does not indicate a
malfunction.
6. SERVICE MODE
(a) VSC operation can be disabled by operating the
intelligent tester.
HINT:
Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual for
further details.
