Inspection Procedure

  1. READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER (MASTER CYLINDER PRESSURE SENSOR) 
    1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
    2. Select the DATA LIST mode on the hand-held tester.
    3. Check that the brake fluid pressure value of the master cylinder pressure sensor observed in the handheld tester changes when the brake pedal is depressed.
      MAS CYL PRESS 1 REFERENCE

      Item Measurement Item / Range (Display Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      MAS CYL PRESS 1 Master cylinder pressure sensor 1 reading/min.: 0 V, max.: 5 V When brake pedal is released: 0.3 to 0.9 V Reading increases when brake pedal is depressed

      Standard: 

      Brake fluid pressure value (voltage) should change. 

    1. NG: Go to step 2 
    2. OK: REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSY (See  BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSY  ) 
      NOTE: When replacing the brake actuator assy, perform the zero point calibration (See  CALIBRATION   ). 
  2. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU TERMINAL VOLTAGE (STP TERMINAL) 
    1. Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
    2. Measure the voltage according to the value (s) in the table below.

      Standard: 

      STP TERMINAL VOLTAGE

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      STP1 (S3-27) - Body ground Brake pedal is depressed 8 to 14 V
    3. Measure the voltage according to the value (s) in the table below.

      Standard: 

      STP TERMINAL VOLTAGE

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      STP1 (S3-27) - Body ground Brake pedal is released 1 V or less

    1. NG: CHECK AND REPLACE STOP LIGHT SWITCH CIRCUIT 
    2. OK: REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSY (See  BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSY  ) 
      NOTE: When replacing the brake actuator assy, perform the zero point calibration (See  CALIBRATION   ).
