4. If the output voltage is lower than the above values, the
following reasons may be suspected. Check or replace
the wheel speed sensor.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE USING OSCILLOSCOPE
After checking the connected state of the harness of the
wheel speed sensor and connector, and measure the output
voltage waveform of each wheel speed sensor on the
oscilloscope as follows.
Start the engine, shift the transmission to the 1st gear to
rotate the driving wheel, and rotate the non-driving wheel
at constant velocity with the hand.
NOTE
1. It is also possible to actually drive the vehicle and observe
the waveform.
2. The output voltage is low if the wheel speed is low and
gradually increases as the speed increases.
PhenomenonProbable causeSolution
Waveform amplitude is too small or
not output at allWheel seed sensor faultReplace the sensor
Excessive waveform amplitude

iilit df100V)

Caution
As the wheel speed sensor cable follows the movement of the front or rear suspension, it will
change considerably on poor condition roads. Therefore, also observe the output voltage waveform
of the wheel speed sensor with the sensor harness vibrated to simulate special conditions such
as driving in poor road conditions.

ABS <4WD> -General Information35B-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
ABS has been adopted as optional equipment in
RS-IIto maintain directional stability and steering
performance during sudden braking or braking on
slippery road surfaces.
The ABS control method is a 4-sensor, 4-channel
method which provides independent control for all
wheels.
Following system for Lancer EVOLUTION-VII has
been modified from Lancer EVOLUTION-VI Tommi
Makinen Edition.DBy adding lateral G sensor, longitudinal G
sensor and steering wheel sensor, optimized
ABS control at the time of cornering.
DBy inputting parking brake switch signal to
ABS-ECU with pulling parking brake lever, ABS
control has been optimized.
DABS-ECU outputs ABS signal to 4WD-ECU.
DG sensor (lateral), steering wheel sensor and
parking brake switch have been added to the
diagnosis and service data.
DABS-ECU connector has been changed.
EBD CONTROL
In ABS, electronic control method is used by which
the rear wheel brake hydraulic pressure during
braking is regulated by rear wheel control solenoid
valves in accordance with the vehicle’s rate of
deceleration and the front and rear wheel slippage
which are calculated from the each wheel speed
sensor’s signal. EBD control is a control system
which provides a high level of control for both vehicle
braking force and vehicle stability. The system has
the following features:
DBecause the system provides the optimum rear
wheel braking force regardless of the vehicleladen condition and the condition of the road
surface, the system reduces the required pedal
depression force, particularly when the vehicle
is heavily laden or driving on road surfaces
with high frictional coefficients.
DBecause the duty placed on the front brakes
has been reduced, the increases in pad
temperature can be controlled to improve the
wear resistance characteristics of the pad,
during front brakes applying.
DControl valves such as the proportioning valve
are no longer required.

Caution
1. If steering movements are made when driving at high speed, or when driving on road surfaces
with low frictional resistance, or when passing over bumps, the ABS may operate even though
sudden braking is not being applied. Because of this, when getting information from the customer,
check if the problem occurred while driving under such conditions as these.
2. During ABS operation, the brake pedal may vibrate or may not be able to be depressed. Such
phenomena are due to intermittent changes in hydraulic pressure inside the brake line to prevent
the wheels from locking and is not an abnormality.

CHECK AT ABS-ECU
Use the following steps to remove the connector cover and
measure the terminal voltage.
1. Move the lock lever of the ABS-ECU connector as shown
in the illustration, and then disconnect the ABS-ECU
connector.
2. Push up and unlock the hooks of the ABS-ECU connector
shown in the illustration, then remove the connector cover.
