• ABS (ABS/TCS) CM detects ABS system malfunction.

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
INSPECT WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN ABS HU/CM AND DLC-2 FOR CONTINUITY AND SHORTS
Perform DTC inspection.
Is error message displayed regarding communication between ABS (ABS/TCS) 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.
No
Go to next step.
2
INSPECT FOR DTCS IN ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM
Have DTCs been recorded in memory?
Yes
Perform inspection using appropriate DTC.
No
Go to next step.
3
INSPECT PID/DATA IN ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM
Inspect the following items using WDS or equivalent PID/DATA monitor function.
• ABS_LAMP (ABS warning light)
Is ABS_LAMP ON after more than 4 s with ignition switch on?
Yes
Replace ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM (open circuit or short to ground in ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM).
No
Go to next step.

*4

INSPECT WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM AND DLC-2 FOR CONTINUITY
Disconnect ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM connector.
Is there continuity between connector terminal O, R and DLC-?
Yes
Go to next step.
No
Repair wiring harness between ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM and DLC-2.
5
INSPECT WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM AND DLC-2 FOR SHORT TO B+
Is voltage approx. 12 V at connector terminal O, R?
Yes
Repair wiring harness between ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM and DLC-2.
No
Go to next step.

*6

INSPECT WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM AND DLC-2 FOR SHORT TO GROUND
Is there continuity between connector terminal O, R and ground?
Yes
Repair wiring harness between ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM and DLC-2.
No
Replace ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM (communication circuit malfunction is ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM).

• When performing an asterisked (*) troubleshooting inspection, shake the wiring harness and connectors while doing the inspection to discover whether poor contact points are the cause of any intermittent malfunctions. If there is a problem, check to make sure connectors, terminals and wiring harness are connected correctly and undamaged.
