TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR SYMPTOMS
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
The Braking Distance Is LongNFS000R6
CAUTION:
The stopping distance on slippery road surfaces might be longer with the ABS operating than when
the ABS is not operating.
1. CHECK FUNCTION
Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector to deactivate
ABS. In this condition, check stopping distance. After inspection, connect connector.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO procedure 3 “CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR”. Refer to BRC-51,
"Excessive ABS Function Operation Frequency" .
NG >> Check brake system.
ABS Function Does Not OperateNFS000R7
CAUTION:
ABS does not operate when speed is 10 km/h (6 MPH) or lower.
1. CHECK ABS WARNING LAMP DISPLAY
Make sure that the ABS warning lamp turns OFF after ignition switch is turned on or when driving.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO procedure 3 “CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR”. Refer to BRC-51,
"Excessive ABS Function Operation Frequency" .
NG >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-24, "
Self-Diagnosis" .
Pedal Vibration or ABS Operation Sound OccursNFS000R8
CAUTION:
Under the following conditions, ABS is activated and vibration is felt when brake pedal is lightly
depressed (just place a foot on it). However, this is normal.

When shifting gears

When driving on slippery road

During cornering at high speed

When passing over bumps or grooves [at approximately 50 mm (1.97 in) or more]

When pulling away just after starting engine [at approximately 10 km/h (6 MPH) or higher]
1. SYMPTOM CHECK 1
Check if there is pedal vibration or operation sound when the engine is started.
Do symptoms occur?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Perform self -diagnosis. Refer to BRC-24, "
Self-Diagnosis" .
2. SYMPTOM CHECK 2
Check symptoms when electrical component (headlamps, etc.) switches are operated.
Do symptoms occur?
YES >> Check if there is a radio, antenna, antenna lead wire, or wiring close to the control unit. If there is,
move it farther away.
NO >> GO TO procedure 3 “CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR”. Refer to BRC-51,
"Excessive ABS Function Operation Frequency" .

Removal and InstallationNFS000RC
COMPONENT
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following.

Before servicing, disconnect the battery cable from negative terminal.

To remove brake tube, use a flare nut wrench to prevent flare nuts and brake tube from being dam-
aged. To install, use flare nut torque wrench.

Do not apply excessive impact to ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), such as dropping it.

Do not remove and install actuator by holding harness.

After work is completed, bleed air from brake tube. Refer to BR-10, "Bleeding Brake System" .

After installing harness connector in the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), make sure
connector is securely locked.
REMOVAL
1. Remove cowl top cover. Refer to EI-18, "REMOVAL" .
2. Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector.
3. Loosen brake tube flare nuts, then remove brake tubes from ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
4. Remove tire.
5. Remove fender protector (rear): (front LH side). Refer to EI-20, "
REMOVAL" .
6. Remove ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) bracket mounting nut.

UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMPPFP:27760
System DescriptionNKS003UG
For the unified meter and A/C amp., the signal required for controlling the combination meter are integrated in
the A/C auto amp.
COMBINATION METER CONTROL FUNCTION

Unified meter and A/C amp. inputs necessary information for combination meter from each unit with CAN
communication and so on.

Unified meter and A/C amp. outputs signals with communication line (TX, RX) between unified meter and
A/C amp. and combination meter.

Unified meter and A/C amp. corresponds a CONSULT-II function (self-diagnostic results, CAN diagnostic
support monitor and data monitor).
