4. CHECK ABS WARNING LAMP DISPLAY
Make sure warning lamp turns off approximately 1 second after the ignition switch is turned on or when driv-
ing.
OK or NG
OK >> Normal
NG >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-19, "
OPERATION PROCEDURE" .
Unexpected Pedal ReactionNFS0002F
1. CHECK BRAKE PEDAL STROKE
Check brake pedal stroke.
Is the stroke too big?
YES >>Bleed air from the brake piping.
Check brake pedal, brake booster, and master cylinder mount for play, looseness, and brake
system for fluid leaks, etc. If any malfunctions are found, make repairs.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2. CHECK FUNCTION
Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector, and make sure the braking force is suffi-
cient when the ABS is not operating. After the inspection, reconnect the connector.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR in BRC-32, "Excessive ABS Func-
tion Operation Frequency" .

The Braking Distance is LongNFS0002G
CAUTION:
On slippery road surfaces, the stopping distance might be longer with the ABS operating than when
the ABS is not operating.
1. CHECK FUNCTION
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 3. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR in BRC-32, "Excessive ABS Func-
tion Operation Frequency" .
NG >>
Bleed air from the brake piping.
Check brake system.
The ABS Function Does Not OperateNFS0002H
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 1 second after the ignition switch is turned on or when driv-
ing.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR in BRC-32, "Excessive ABS Func-
tion Operation Frequency" .
NG >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-19, "
OPERATION PROCEDURE" .
Pedal Vibration or ABS Operation Sound OccursNFS0002I
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 [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 pedal vibration or operation sound occurs when the engine is started.
Does the symptom occur?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-19, "
OPERATION PROCEDURE" .
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 the control unit (or its wir-
ing), and if there is, move it farther away.
NO >> GO TO 3. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR in BRC-32, "
Excessive ABS Func-
tion Operation Frequency" .

Self-diagnosisNFS000HG
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Before performing the self-diagnosis, start engine and drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for
approximately 1 minute.
HOW TO ERASE SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULTS
1. After erasing DTC memory, start engine and drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately
1 minute as the final inspection, and make sure that the ABS warning lamp, TCS OFF indicator lamp,
SLIP indicator lamp and brake warning lamp turn OFF.
CAUTION:
If memory cannot be erased, perform applicably diagnosis.
When the wheel sensor malfunctions, after inspecting the wheel sensor system, the ABS warning lamp,
TCS OFF indicator lamp, SLIP indicator lamp and brake warning lamp will not turn OFF even when the
system is normal unless the vehicle is driving at approximately 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approxi-
mately 1 minute.
Brake warning lamp will turn ON in case of parking brake operation (when switch is ON) or of brake
fluid level switch operation (when brake fluid is insufficient).
