ABS Operates Before Necessary When Braking
DESCRIPTION
Troubleshooting for when ABS operates too soon due to a noisy signal from the speed sensor, a difference in output, etc.
PROCEDURE
1. |
PERFORM TEST MODE (SIGNAL CHECK) INSPECTION (SPEED SENSOR CIRCUIT) |
(a) Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRAC/EPB / Utility / Signal Check.
(b)
Using the Techstream, perform a Test Mode (Signal Check) inspection
sensor check and check that speed sensor Test Mode (Signal Check)
inspection items change from incomplete to complete.

NOTICE:
- When cleaning the front speed sensor, make sure to clean the installation hole before installation.
- Do not use parts cleaner when cleaning the front speed sensor rotor.
HINT:
The rear speed sensor and rear speed sensor rotor are incorporated into the rear axle hub and bearing assembly.
If the rear speed sensor and rear speed sensor rotor need to be replaced, replace the rear axle hub and bearing assembly.

ABS Warning Light does not Come ON
DESCRIPTION
The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) is connected to the combination meter assembly via CAN communication.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
NOTICE:
When
replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), perform
system variant learning and acceleration sensor zero point calibration.

ABS Warning Light Remains ON
DESCRIPTION
The skid
control ECU (brake actuator 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 actuator assembly) connector is disconnected from the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly).
- There is a malfunction in the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) internal circuit.
- There is an open in the harness between the combination meter and skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly).
- The ABS is defective.
HINT:
In some cases, the Techstream cannot be used when the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) is abnormal.
