Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Lexus IS F. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: When replacing the skid control ECU, perform zero point calibration and store system information (See CALIBRATION  ).

HINT

When C0278/11 and/or C0279/12 is output together with C0226/21, C0236/22, C0246/23, and/or C0256/ 24, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by C0278/11 and/or C0279/12 first (See DTC C0278/11 OPEN IN ABS SOLENOID RELAY CIRCUIT; DTC C0279/12 SHORT TO B+ IN ABS SOLENOID RELAY CIRCUIT  ).

  1. INSPECT BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY 
    1. Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
    2. Disconnect the brake actuator connector
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

  3. RECONFIRM DTC 
    1. Reconnect the skid control ECU connectors and the brake actuator connector
    2. Clear the DTCs (See DTC CHECK / CLEAR  )
    3. Start the engine
    4. Drive the vehicle at a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph) or more for 30 seconds or more.
    5. Check if the same DTC is recorded (See DTC CHECK / CLEAR  )

      Result 

      RESULT REFERENCE

      Result Proceed to
      DTCs (C0226/21, C0236/22, C0246/23, and C0256/24) are not output A
      DTCs (C0226/21, C0236/22, C0246/23, and/or C0256/24) are output B

      HINT

      • If a speed signal of 6 km/h (4 mph) or more is input to the skid control ECU with the engine switch on (IG) and the stop light switch off, the ECU performs self diagnosis of the motor and solenoid circuits
      • If the normal system code is output (no trouble codes are output), slightly jiggle the connectors, wire harness, and fuses of the skid control ECU and/or brake actuator assembly Make sure that no DTCs are output
      • If any DTCs are output while jiggling a connector or wire harness of the skid control ECU and/or brake actuator assembly, inspect and repair the connector or wire harness.
      • It is suspected that the DTCs were output due to a bad connection of the connector terminal.

    B: REPLACE SKID CONTROL ECU  (See REMOVAL  )

    A: CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS (SYMPTOM SIMULATION)  (See DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM  )
