< SERVICE INFORMATION >[VDC/TCS/ABS]
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Note 1: After completing repairs of shorted sensor circuit, when turning ignition switch ON, ABS warning lamp turned on. Make t
hat ABS
warning lamp turned off while driving vehicle at approximately 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately 1 minute according to self-
diagnosis procedure. In addition, if whee l sensor 2 is displayed for wheels, check wheel sensor circuit and also check ABS actu ator and
electric unit (control unit) power voltage.
Note 2: If multiple malfunctions are detected including CAN communication line [U1000], perform diagnosis for CAN communication line
first.
Note 3: “ACTUATOR RLY” on the CONSULT-III self-diagnostic results indicates the malfunction of actuator relay or circuit. Actua tor relay
is imbedded in ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
Note 4:Only AWD models.

NOTE:
The example shown is for the front right wheel. The procedure for the other wheels is the same as given
below.
 When performing an active test of the ABS function, se lect the main item for each test item. In addition,
when performing an active test of the VDC/TCS function, select the item menu for each test item.
 For the ABS solenoid valve, touch “UP” “KEEP” “DOWN”, and for the ABS solenoid valve (ACT), touch “UP”
“ACTUATOR UP” “ACTUATOR KEEP”, and check to make su re that all solenoid valve (in, out) are operating
as given in the table below.
*: ON for 1 to 2 seconds after the touch, and then OFF

PRECAUTIONS FOR DIAGNOSIS
 Before performing diagnosis, always read precautions. Refer to BRC-13, "How to Proceed with Diagnosis".
 If ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), steer ing angle sensor, steering system parts or suspension
system parts have been replaced, or if alignment has been adjusted, be sure to adjust neutral position of
steering angle sensor before driving. Refer to BRC-8, "
Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Posi-
tion".
 After diagnosis is finished, be sure to erase memory. Refer to BRC-26, "
Self-Diagnosis".
 When checking continuity and voltage between units, be sure to check for disconnection, looseness, bend,
or collapse of connector terminals. If any malfuncti on is found, repair or replace connector terminals.
 For intermittent symptoms, possible cause is malfunc tion in harness, harness connector, or terminals. Move
harness, harness connector, and terminals to check for poor connections.
 If a circuit tester is used for the check, be ca reful not to forcibly extend any connector terminal.
 To use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis of ABS act uator and electric unit (control unit), active tests, or
work support, first stop work, then connect CONSULT-III and select “ABS”.
 While self-diagnostic results of CONSULT-III shows malf unction, if CONSULT-III active test is performed, an
engine system error may be indicated. In this case, start engine to resume the normal screen.
 VDC/TCS/ABS system electronica lly controls brake operation and engine output. The following symptoms
may be caused by normal operations:

ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM
*1: This sensor is not used to control the engine system under normal conditions.
*2: This signal is sent to the ECM through CAN communication line.
*3: ECM determines the start signal status by the signals of engine speed and battery voltage.
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The amount of fuel injected from the fuel injector is
determined by the ECM. The ECM controls the length of
time the valve remains open (injection pulse duration). T he amount of fuel injected is a program value in the
ECM memory. The program value is preset by engi ne operating conditions. These conditions are determined
by input signals (for engine speed and intake air) from both the crankshaft position sensor and the mass air
flow sensor.
VARIOUS FUEL INJECTION I NCREASE/DECREASE COMPENSATION
In addition, the amount of fuel injected is compens ated to improve engine performance under various operat-
ing conditions as listed below.
 During warm-up
 When starting the engine
 During acceleration
 Hot-engine operation
 When selector lever is changed from N to D
 High-load, high-speed operation
 During deceleration
 During high engine speed operation
MIXTURE RATIO FEEDBACK CONTROL (CLOSED LOOP CONTROL)
The mixture ratio feedback system prov ides the best air-fuel mixture ratio for driveability and emission control.

AUTOMATIC SPEED CONTROL DEVICE (ASCD)
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001325901
INPUT/OUTPUT SIGNAL CHART
*: This signal is sent to the ECM through CAN communication line.
BASIC ASCD SYSTEM
Refer to Owner's Manual for ASCD operating instructions.
Automatic Speed Control Device (ASCD) allows a dr
iver to keep vehicle at predetermined constant speed
without depressing accelerator pedal. Driver can set vehicle speed in advance between approximately 40 km/
h (25 MPH) and 144 km/h (89 MPH).
ECM controls throttle angle of electric thro ttle control actuator to regulate engine speed.
Operation status of ASCD is indicated by CRUISE i ndicator and SET indicator in combination meter. If any
malfunction occurs in ASCD system, it automatically deactivates control.
NOTE:
Always drive vehicle in safe manner according to traffic conditions and obey all traffic laws.
SET OPERATION
Press MAIN switch. (The CRUISE indicator in combination meter illuminates.)
When vehicle speed reaches a desired speed between approximately 40 km/h (25 MPH) and 144 km/h (89
MPH), press SET/COAST switch. (Then SET indi cator in combination meter illuminates.)
ACCELERATOR OPERATION
If the RESUME/ACCELERATE switch is pressed during cruise control driving, increase the vehicle speed until
the switch is released or vehicle speed reac hes maximum speed controlled by the system.
And then ASCD will keep the new set speed.
CANCEL OPERATION
When any of following conditions exist, cruise operation will be canceled.
 CANCEL switch is pressed
 More than 2 switches at ASCD steering switch are pressed at the same time (Set speed will be cleared)
 Brake pedal is depressed
 Selector lever is changed to N, P, R position
 Vehicle speed decreased to 13 km/h (8 MPH) lower than the set speed
 VDC/TCS system is operated
When the ECM detects any of the following conditions, the ECM will cancel the cruise operation and inform
the driver by blinking indicator lamp.
 Engine coolant temperature is slightly higher than the normal operating temperature, CRUISE lamp may
blink slowly.
When the engine coolant temperature decreases to t he normal operating temperature, CRUISE lamp will
stop blinking and the cruise operation will be able to work by depressing SET/COAST switch or RESUME/
ACCELERATE switch.
 Malfunction for some self-diagnoses regarding ASCD control: SET lamp will blink quickly.
If MAIN switch is turned to OFF during ASCD is activated, all of ASCD operations will be canceled and vehicle
speed memory will be erased.
COAST OPERATION
When the SET/COAST switch is pressed during cruise control driving, decrease vehicle set speed until the
switch is released. And then ASCD will keep the new set speed.
