ABS Indicator Always On











CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The EBCM controls the ABS indicator lamp illumination by supplying a ground to the EBCM 10-way terminal B. When the vehicle is started or the ignition is turned to the RUN position, the ABS indicator should illuminate for two seconds and turn off.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
If the ABS indicator lamp is on always with no DTCs set (never turns off after two seconds with the vehicle started or with the ignition switch in the RUN position), there is a short to ground in CKT 867 between the instrument cluster and the EBCM or the EBCM is internally shorted to ground.

TEST DESCRIPTION
