< ECU DIAGNOSIS INFORMATION >[WITH VDC]
ABS ACTUATOR AND ELECTRIC UNIT (CONTROL UNIT)
VDC function, TCS function, hill start assist function and
brake limited slip differential (BLSD) function. How-
ever, ABS function and EBD function are operated normally.
ABS FUNCTION
ABS warning lamp and VDC warning lamp in combinati on meter turn ON when a malfunction occurs in system
[ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit)]. The c ontrol is suspended for VDC function, TCS function, ABS
function, hill start assist function and brake limited sl ip differential (BLSD) function. The vehicle status
becomes the same as models without VDC function, TCS f unction, ABS function, hill start assist function and
brake limited slip differential (BLSD) function. However, EBD function is operated normally.
NOTE:
ABS self-diagnosis sound may be heard the same as in the normal condition, because self-diagnosis is per-
formed when ignition switch turns ON and when vehicle initially starts.
EBD FUNCTION
ABS warning lamp, brake warning lamp and VDC warning lamp in combination meter turn ON when a mal-
function occurs in system [ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit)]. The control is suspended for VDC
function, TCS function, ABS function, EBD function, hill start assist function and brake limited slip differential
(BLSD) function. The vehicle status becomes the sa me as models without VDC function, TCS function, ABS
function, EBD function, hill star t assist function and brake limited slip differential (BLSD) function.

UNEXPECTED BRAKE PEDAL REACTION
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006222659
A malfunction of brake pedal feel (height or ot
hers) is detected when brake pedal is depressed.
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000006222660
1.CHECK FRONT AND REAR AXLE

2.CHECK DISC ROTOR
Check disc rotor runout.
Front: Refer to BR-16, "
DISC ROTOR : Inspection and Adjustment".
Rear: Refer to BR-18, "
DISC ROTOR : Inspection and Adjustment".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Refinish or replace disc rotor. Front: Refer to BR-16, "
DISC ROTOR : Inspection and Adjustment".
Rear: Refer to BR-18, "
DISC ROTOR : Inspection and Adjustment".
3.CHECK BRAKE FLUID LEACKAGE
Check fluid leakage.
Front: Refer to BR-24, "
FRONT : Inspection".
Rear: Refer to BR-26, "
REAR : Inspection".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Repair or replace error-detected parts.
4.CHECK BRAKE PEDAL
Check each item of brake pedal. Refer to BR-7, "
Inspection and Adjustment".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 5.
NO >> Adjust each item of brake pedal. Refer to BR-7, "
Inspection and Adjustment".
5.CHECK BRAKING FORCE
Check brake force using a brake tester.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 6.
NO >> Check each components of brake system.
6.CHECK BRAKE PERFORMANCE
Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector so that ABS does not operate. Check that
brake force is normal in this condition. Connect harness connectors after checking.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Normal
NO >> Check each components of brake system.
