WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Toyota Avalon, 2021 Toyota Avalon, 2020 Toyota Avalon, and 2019 Toyota Avalon. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (PERMISSION OF RH INTERLOCKING PKB LOCK / PERMISSION OF LH INTERLOCKING PKB LOCK)
- Turn the engine switch off.
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRAC/EPB / Data List.
- Read the Data List according to the display on the Techstream.

See step 2
- INSPECT PARKING BRAKE WIRE ASSEMBLY
*A RH *B LH *a Front view of Parking Brake Wire Assembly *b (to wire harness connector) *c (to Parking Brake Actuator Assembly) - - - Turn the engine switch off.
- Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.
OK
The connector is securely connected.
- Remove the parking brake wire assembly.
- Check both the connector case and the terminals for deformation and corrosion.
OK
No deformation or corrosion.
- Inspect the parking brake wire assembly.
Standard Resistance
RHTester Connection Condition Specified Condition YK1-1 (MRR-) - Y4-1 (RE-) Always Below 1 Ω YK1-1 (MRR-) or Y4-1 (RE-) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher YK1-2 (MRR+) - Y4-2 (RE+) Always Below 1 Ω YK1-2 (MRR+) or Y4-2 (RE+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher LHTester Connection Condition Specified Condition YK2-1 (MRL-) - Y1-1 (LE-) Always Below 1 Ω YK2-1 (MRL-) or Y1-1 (LE-) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher YK2-2 (MRL+) - Y1-2 (LE+) Always Below 1 Ω YK2-2 (MRL+) or Y1-2 (LE+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPLACE PARKING BRAKE WIRE ASSEMBLY
Result:
OK
See step 3
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU (BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY) - PARKING BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY)
- Turn the engine switch off.
- Make sure the parking brake wire assembly is securely installed.
- Disconnect the A28 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.
- Disconnect the Y4 or Y1 parking brake actuator assembly connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
RHTester Connection Condition Specified Condition A28-2 (MRR+) - Y4-2 (RE+) Always Below 1 Ω A28-3 (MRR-) - Y4-1 (RE-) Always Below 1 Ω A28-2 (MRR+) or Y4-2 (RE+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher A28-2 (MRR+) or Y4-1 (RE-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher LHTester Connection Condition Specified Condition A28-13 (MRL+) - Y1-2 (LE+) Always Below 1 Ω A28-12 (MRL-) - Y1-1 (LE-) Always Below 1 Ω A28-13 (MRL+) or Y1-2 (LE+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher A28-12 (MRL-) or Y1-1 (LE-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
