WARNINGS REGARDING SERVICING OF SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) EQUIPPED VEHICLES
WARNING
•Improper service or maintenance of an y component of the SRS, or any SRS-related component, can lead to
personal injury or death to service personnel (from inadvertent firing of the air bag) or to the driver and
passenger (from renderin g the SRS inoperative).
•Service or maintenance of any SRS component or SRS-related component must be performed only at an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
•MITSUBISHI dealer personnel must thoroughly review this manual, and especially its GROUP 52B - Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) before beginning any service or maintenance of any component of the SRS or any
SRS-related component.
NOTE
The SRS includes the following components: SRS air bag control unit, SRS warning light, front impact sensors, driver’s and
passenger’s (front) air bag modules, knee air bag module, side-airbag module, curtain air bag module, side impact sensors,
seat belt pre-tensioners, clock spring, and interconnecting wiring. Other SRS-related components (that may have to be
removed/installed in connection with SRS service or maintenance) are indicated in the table of contents by an asterisk (*).

GENERAL INFORMATION
FOUR-WHEEL ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (4ABS)35B-2
GENERAL INFORMATIONM2351000100830
The ABS that ensures directional stability and con-
trollability during hard braking. ABS is standard
equippment on the ES and GTS models but is
optional.
This ABS uses a 4-sensor system that controls all
four wheels independently of each other, and has the
following features:
•EBD *1 (Electronic Brake-force Distribution sys-
tem) control that can obtain ideal rear wheel
brake force has been employed.
•The magnetic encoder for detecting the wheel
speed has been installed instead of the rotor as
the wheel speed sensor.
•For wiring harness saving and secure data com-
munication, CAN *2 bus has been adopted as a
tool of communication with other ECUs.
NOTE: .
•*1: EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution)
•*2: For more information about CAN (Controller
Area Network), refer to GROUP 54C
P.54C-2.

CONSTRUCTION DESCRIPTION
FOUR-WHEEL ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (4ABS)35B-7
ABS-ECUM2351003000520
•By integrating ABS-ECU into the hydraulic unit,
no wiring harness for sending drive signal of the
solenoid valve and pump motor is required,
assuring higher reliability.
•Self-diagnostic and memory functions are inte-
grated into ABS-ECU. If any malfunction is
detected by the self-diagnostic function,
ABS-ECU activates a fail-safe function and illumi
-
nates the ABS warning light and brake warning
light
*.
NOTE: *: The brake warning light is used as the
EBD control warning light.
•ABS-ECU detects vehicle speed from the signals
of the wheel speed sensor and its recognizes the
wheel rotation status, estimates the wheel slip
condition based on the preprogrammed algo
-
rithm, and then controls the solenoid valve in the
hydraulic unit so that the wheels do not lock.
ABS hydraulic pressure control
ABS control cycle
1. The ABS-ECU calculates the speed and deceler-
ation of each wheel based on the signals from the
four wheel speed sensors, and estimates the
vehicle speed at that time.
2. When the brake pedal is depressed, the brake
fluid pressure applied to the wheel cylinder
increases, and the wheel speed decreases.
When the difference between the wheel speed
and vehicle speed increases, and the vehicle
deceleration goes below the specified value (Point A), ECU determines that the wheels are
about to be locked. At this time, ECU reduces the
brake fluid pressure by outputting the pressure
decrease signal to the solenoid valves (IN, OUT).
(between a and b)
3. When the vehicle deceleration and wheel speed
begin recovery, and the vehicle speed reaches
the point B, ECU outputs the pressure hold signal
to maintain the wheel cylinder fluid pressure.

STARTUP CHECK
.When the startup vehicle speed reaches approxi-
mately 10 km/h (6 mph), ABS-ECU performs the fol-
lowing checks.
1. Motor, solenoid valve check (Initial startup* only)
Turns ON the motor relay in ECU, and checks the
pump motor operation. At the same time,
ABS-ECU sequentially energizes each solenoid
valve in a very short period and checks the valve
operation.
NOTE: *: Initial startup indicates a first startup
after the system has started.
2. Wheel speed sensor check
ABS-ECU checks for any wheels that have not
received wheel speed sensor signal from the
startup.
CONSTANT CHECK
.ABS-ECU constantly checks the following items.
1. ABS-ECU
Performs self-diagnosis in ECU.
2. ECU power supply
Checks if ECU power supply voltage stays within
the operational range.
3. Wheel speed sensor
(1) Monitors the output voltage of the sensor
signal wiring harness and checks for abnormal
output voltage (open/short circuit).
(2) Checks for any wheels that do not send pulse
signal while the vehicle is in motion.
(3) Checks if wheel speed which is abnormally
higher or lower than the vehicle speed is input.
4. Pump motor, solenoid valve
Checks that the ABS-ECU output signal and the
operating conditions of the pump motor and
solenoid valve agree with each other.
CAN COMMUNICATION
ABS-ECU outputs the ABS warning light and the
EBD warning light
* illumination request signals to the
combination meter through CAN communication.
NOTE: *: The brake warning light is used as EBD
control warning light.
FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION
If any malfunction is detected by the self-diagnostic
function, ABS-ECU illuminates the ABS warning light
and brake warning light
*, and it disables ABS and
EBD control.
NOTE: *: The brake warning light is used as EBD
control warning light.
