Inspection Procedure

  1. INSPECT CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM 
    1. Check if the CAN communication system DTC is output (see DTC CHECK/CLEAR  ).

      Result: 

      CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

      DTC is not output A
      DTC is output B
    1. B: REPAIR CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (SEE  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING  ) 
    2. A: Go to next step. 
  2. INSPECT MULTIPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM 
    1. Check if the multiplex communication system DTC is output (see DTC CHECK/CLEAR ).

      Result: 

      MULTIPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

      DTC is not output A
      DTC is output B
    1. B: REPAIR MULTIPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (SEE  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING  ) 
    2. A: Go to next step. 
  3. INSPECT IF SKID CONTROL ECU CONNECTOR IS SECURELY CONNECTED 
    1. Check if the skid control ECU connector is connected.

      OK: 

      The connector should be securely connected. 

    1. NG: CONNECT CONNECTOR TO ECU CORRECTLY 
    2. OK: Go to next step. 
  4. INSPECT BATTERY 
    1. Check the battery voltage.

      Standard: 

      Voltage: 11 to 14 V 

    1. NG: INSPECT CHARGING SYSTEM (SEE  ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION  ) 
    2. OK: Go to next step. 
  5. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU CONNECTOR (IG1 TERMINAL VOLTAGE) 

    WHEN USING HAND-HELD TESTER 

    1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
    2. Start the engine.
    3. Select "DATA LIST" on the hand-held tester.

      DATA LIST: ABS 

      DATA LIST - ABS (USING HAND-HELD TESTER)

      Item Measurement Item / Range (Display) Normal Condition
      IG VOLTAGE ECU power supply voltage / TOO LOW / NORMAL / TOO HIGH TOO HIGH: 14.0 or over
      IG VOLTAGE ECU power supply voltage / TOO LOW / NORMAL / TOO HIGH NORMAL: 9.5 V to 14.0 V
      IG VOLTAGE ECU power supply voltage / TOO LOW / NORMAL / TOO HIGH TOO LOW: Below 9.5 V
    4. Read the voltage condition output from the skid control ECU displayed on the hand-held tester.

      OK: 

      "NORMAL" is displayed. 

    WHEN NOT USING HAND-HELD TESTER 

    1. Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
    2. Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in DATA LIST - ABS (NOT USING HAND-HELD TESTER)  .

      Standard: 

      DATA LIST - ABS (NOT USING HAND-HELD TESTER)

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A40-18 (IG1) - Body ground Ignition switch on (IG) 10 to 14 V

    1. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (IG1 CIRCUIT) 
    2. OK: Go to next step. 
  6. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU CONNECTOR (GND TERMINAL CONTINUITY) 
    1. Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in SKID CONTROL ECU CONNECTOR (GND TERMINAL CONTINUITY)  .

      Standard: 

      SKID CONTROL ECU CONNECTOR (GND TERMINAL CONTINUITY)

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      A40-4 (GND1) - Body ground Below 1 Ω
      A40-1 (GND2) - Body ground Below 1 Ω
      Fig 2: Inspecting Skid Control ECU Connector (GND Terminal Continuity)

    1. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (GND CIRCUIT) 
    2. OK: Go to next step. 
  7. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSY 
    1. Check the combination meter assy (see HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING ).
    1. NG: REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSY (SEE  OVERHAUL  ) 
    2. OK: REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSY (SEE  REPLACEMENT  ) 

    HINT:

    If troubleshooting has been carried out according to the problem symptoms table, refer back to the table and proceed to the next step before replacing the part (see PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE  ).
