Actual Values (ABS and ABS/ABD)
This menu (function) allows the following actual values to be checked:- Stop light switch
- Valve relay
- Return pump
- Speed (Wheel speed / Check is possible for speeds of up to 19 km/h)
Front left
Front right
Rear left
Rear right
Terminal 61
- Throttle (Does not exist on solo ABS system)
Re: Stop light switch:
Operate brake pedal.
Specified display: Shift from open to closed.
Re: Valve (solenoid) relay:
With the ignition switched on and with the engine running and the system in good condition, the following display appears: ,,Valve relay tightened' (picked up).
Re: Return pump:
Display: Return pump not activated (Display would read activated if pump is running).
Re: Speed:
Use select button (function key) to select the desired wheel.
Wheel speed is displayed in km/h and mph (depending on wheel rpm).
If function key 1 is also pressed, the values for all wheels are displayed.
Example: Front left wheel
Example: All wheels
The wheels are assigned as follows on this display:
Left front wheel = Right front wheel
2 top left blocks 2 top right blocks
Left rear wheel = Right rear wheel =
2 bottom left blocks 2 bottom right blocks
Procedure
2 checks are possible if the speed sensor signal is monitored.
Check 1 with raised vehicle. (Accidental interchanging of speed sensors and speed sensor signal quality check).
Check 2 during straight-ahead driving at approx. 2-4 km/h
(Signal quality of individual wheels is compared). Check 2 provides better conclusions on signal quality than check 1.
Re: Check 1
To check, manually rotate left front wheel steadily at approx. 2 to 3km/h (observe tester display).. Increase speed slowly and observe speed increase (display) at the same time.
specifications specifications display Speed increments of approx. 0.06 km/h. Initial display at 1.75 km/h. This means: The subsequent value must exceed the value measured last by 0.06 km/h or must be 0.06 km/h below this value when the wheel is rotated slower.
In some cases, the tester rounds the value down to 0.05 km/h or up to 0.07 km/h.
Example
First measured value = 1.81 km/h
Second value as specified = 1.87 km/h
Third specified value = 1.93 km/h
etc.
Note
Lock the opposite wheel (to prevent from rotating) when checking the wheels on the rear axle.
On four-wheel drive vehicles, the three other wheels must be locked during this check.
Re: Check 2
Select all 4 wheels on tester display by additionally pressing tester button 1 (function key 1).
Drive smoothly at approx. 2-4 km/h in a straight-ahead direction and have a helper observe the tester display.
Specification: Wheel speeds of all four wheels must not deviate from each other by more than 1 km/h.
Re: Signal of terminal 61
Specified display:
Engine stopped - Signal not present
Engine running - Signal present
Re: Throttle signal:
Precondition: Engine runs. Throttle position is displayed as a percentage. Display changes according to throttle position when the accelerator is depressed.
