Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1

• Perform DTC inspection.
• Is error message displayed regarding communication between ABS HU/CM and WDS or equivalent?
Yes
If the communication error message is displayed even after inspecting according to procedures displayed in the WDS or equivalent, go to Step 4.
