ABS Warning Light Remains ON

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) is connected to the combination meter assembly via CAN communication.

If any of the following is detected, the ABS warning light remains on:

  • The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) connector is disconnected from the brake booster with master cylinder assembly.
  • There is a malfunction in the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) internal circuit.
  • There is an open in the wire harness between the combination meter assembly and the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly).
  • The ABS control system is defective.

HINT:

In some cases, the Techstream cannot be used when the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) is malfunctioning.

PROCEDURE

1.

PERFORM ROAD TEST

(a) After turning the power switch on (READY), compare the operating sound of the brake actuator the first time the vehicle speed reaches approximately 25 km/h (16 mph) with a known good vehicle of the same model.

OK:

The operating sound is the same or quieter than that of a known good vehicle of the same model.

HINT:

When the vehicle speed reaches approximately 20 km/h (12 mph), the initial check of the brake actuator assembly is performed and pump motor operation sounds are generated.

OK

END

2.

CHECK BRAKE ACTUATOR BOLT CUSHION

(a) Check that the cushion of the brake actuator bracket assembly is not worn, damaged or deformed.

OK:

The brake actuator bracket assembly is not worn, damaged or deformed.

NG

REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR BOLT CUSHION

OK

3.

ADJUST INSTALLATION OF BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY

(a) Drain the brake fluid.

(b) Disconnect all brake lines from the brake actuator assembly.

Click here

(c) Connect each brake line so that the cushion of the brake actuator assembly is tensioned evenly.

Click here

NOTICE:

After connecting all the brake lines, add brake fluid and bleed the brake system.

Click here

HINT:

By reducing the tension on the brake lines and cushion, the operating sound of the brake actuator assembly may be reduced.

(d) Check that no brake lines interfere the vehicle body or other components.

NEXT

4.

RECHECK SYMPTOM

(a) Perform a road test and check the magnitude of the operating sound again.

OK:

The operating sound is the same or quieter than that of a known good vehicle of the same model.

OK
