INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. CHECK SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULTS
Check self-diagnosis results.
Is the above displayed in the self-diagnosis item?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> INSPECTION END
2. CHECK CONNECTOR
1. Disconnect steering angle sensor connector and VDC/TCS/ABS control unit connector and check termi-
nals for deformation, disconnection, looseness, and so on. If there is an error, repair or replace the termi-
nal.
2. Reconnect the connectors and then preform self-diagnosis.
Is the result of self-diagnosis normal?
YES >> The connector terminal contact is loose, damaged, open or shorted.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3. CHECK STEERING ANGLE SENSOR HARNESS
1. Check CAN communication system. Refer to BRC-122, "
CAN Communication System" .
2. Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect steering angle sensor
connector M22 and VDC/TCS/ABS control unit connector B114.
3. Check continuity between VDC/TCS/ABS control unit connector
terminal 2 and steering angle sensor connector terminal 3.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4.
NG >> If the open or short in harness, repair or replace the har-
ness.
4. CHECK DATA MONITOR
1. Connect steering angle sensor and VDC/TCS/ABS control unit connectors.
2. Conduct “DATA MONITOR” of the “STR ANGLE SIG” to check if the status is normal.
OK or NG
OK >> Re-conduct VDC/TCS/ABS control unit self-diagnosis.
NG >> Replace spiral cable (steering angle sensor) and adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor.
Refer to BRC-79, "
Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .

ing.
OK or NG
OK >> Normal
NG >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-96, "
OPERATION PROCEDURE" .
Unexpected Pedal ReactionNFS0004T
1. CHECK BRAKE PEDAL STROKE
Check brake pedal stroke.
Is the stroke too big?
YES >>Bleed air from the brake piping.
Check the brake pedal, brake booster, and master cylinder mount for play, looseness, and
brake system for fluid leaks, etc. If any malfunctions are found, make repair.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2. CHECK FUNCTION
Disconnect the VDC/TCS/ABS control unit connector and make sure the braking force is sufficient when the
ABS in not operating. After the inspection, reconnect the connector.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR in BRC-124, "Excessive ABS Func-
tion Operation Frequency" .
NG >> Check brake system.

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 VDC/TCS/ABS control unit connector to deactivate ABS. In this condition, check stopping dis-
tance. After inspection, connect connector.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR in BRC-124, "Excessive ABS Func-
tion Operation Frequency" .
NG >>
Bleed air from the brake piping.
Check brake system.
The ABS Function Does Not OperateNFS0004V
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 the warning lamp turns off approximately 1 second after the ignition switch is turned on or when
driving.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR in BRC-124, "Excessive ABS Func-
tion Operation Frequency" .

Pedal Vibration or ABS Operation Sound OccursNFS0004W
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 (6MPH) 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-96, "
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-124, "

COMPONENTS
REMOVAL
Pay attention to the following when removing sensor.
CAUTION:
As much as possible, avoid rotating sensor when removing it. Pull sensors out without pulling on
sensor harness.
Take care to avoid damaging sensor edges or rotor teeth. Remove wheel sensor first before
removing front or rear wheel hub. This is to avoid damage to sensor wiring and loss of sensor
function.
INSTALLATION
Pay attention to the following when installing sensor. Tighten installation bolts and nuts to specified torques.
When installing, check that there is no foreign material such as iron chips on pick-up and mounting hole of
the sensor. Check that no foreign material has been caught in the sensor rotor motor. Remove any foreign
material and clean the mount.
When installing front sensor, be sure to press rubber grommets in until they lock at the three locations
shown in diagram (2 at shock absorbers and 1 at body panel). When installed, harness must not be
twisted. White line on harness (shaded part) must be visible from front.
