INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION)

(a) Using the Techstream, check for any momentary interruption in the wire harness and connector corresponding to the DTC Check For Intermittent Problems.

ABS/VSC/TRAC

ABS/VSC/TRAC:





Result:





HINT
Perform the above inspection before removing the sensor and connector.

C -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

B -- RECONFIRM DTC
A -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK IF EACH SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR IS SECURELY CONNECTED

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

(b) Check if each sensor or ECM connector is securely connected.

OK:

Each connector is securely connected.

NG -- CONNECT CONNECTOR TO EACH SENSOR OR ECM CORRECTLY
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. RECONFIRM DTC

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

(b) Record the output DTCs (for ABS, VSC system and/or CAN communication system) Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes for ABS and VSC system, or Diagnosis System for CAN communication system).

HINT
If CAN communication system DTCs and the relevant sensor DTCs are output simultaneously, troubleshoot the relevant sensor DTCs (for ABS and/or VSC system) after the CAN communication system returns to normal.

Result:

4. REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

(b) Repair or replace the harness or connector.

(c) Check for any momentary interruption between the skid control ECU and each sensor or ECM Check For Intermittent Problems.

(d) Check that there are no momentary interruptions.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

5. RECONFIRM DTC

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

(b) Clear the DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

(c) Start the engine.

(d) Drive the vehicle and turn the steering wheel to the right and left at a speed of 15 km/h (9 mph) or more.

(e) Check that no CAN communication system DTC is output Diagnosis System.

(f) If ABS and/or VSC system DTCs are output, record them.

Result:





HINT
The CAN communication system must be normal when performing troubleshooting for each sensor DTC (for ABS and/or VSC system).
