Troubleshooting Precautions

1. In any of these cases, the TCS indicator light may come on or stay on even the TCS system is normal.

The coolant temperature is 32°F (0°C) or below.

The parking brake is applied for more than 30 seconds while the vehicle is being driven.

The tires are not inflated to the specified pressure.

The wheel sensor signal is interrupted during driving at speeds of 6 mph (10 km/h) or above due to, for example, a

vehicle spinning.

The MAP sensor, the coolant temperature sensor, the ICM or the atmospheric pressure sensor system of the PGM-FI

system is faulty.

2. TCS does not function when the TCS indicator light is ON.

3. When both the TCS indicator light and the MIL are ON, troubleshoot the PGM-FI system first.

4. When both the TCS indicator light and the ABS indicator light are ON, troubleshoot the ABS first.

5. The DTC 4-9 (ABS down) is memorized when the ABS control unit cannot output the wheel speed signal due to, for

example, a missing or blown ABS B2 (15 A) fuse. If you fail to erase the DTC of the TCS after troubleshooting the ABS,

the DTC remains in the TCS control unit memory. Therefore, be sure to test-drive the vehicle, and check the TCS indica-

tor light before starting to troubleshoot the TCS.ProCarManuals.com

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)

DTC Erasure

1. Press the parking brake pedal.

2. Push and hold the TCS switch, then turn the ignition switch ON (II).

3. Hold the TCS switch pushed for 4 to 6 seconds, then release the TCS switch.

4. After 3 seconds, the TCS indicator light should go off and blink 2 times, then stay on. This means that the DTC is

erased.

NOTE:

Always follow these steps exactly. If you connect the SCS service connector and/or release the parking brake pedal dur-

ing these steps, the DTC will not be erased.

If the TCS indicator light blinks repeatedly, replace the TCS control unit.

Troubleshooting

Brake System Indicator Does Not Go Off

Check the ABS:

1. Turn the ignition switch.

2. Check the ABS indicator.

Does the ABS indicator stay on?
Perform the troubleshooting for

the
DTC.

Release the parking brake.

Does the brake system indica-

tor go off?
The system is OK at this time.

Check the brake fluid level.

Is the level OK?
Refill the brake fluid, then confirm

that the brake system indicator

goes off.

Check the VSA control unit:

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

2. Disconnect the VSA control

unit 42P connector.

3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

Does the brake system indica-

tor go off?
Replace the VSA modulator-

control unit.

Repair short to body ground in

the wire between the brake

system indicator and the VSA

control unit.

The parking brake switch stuck

ON.

stuck ON.ProCarManuals.com

Precharge Brake Line Bleeding

1. Connect the SCS service connector to the service check connector (2P) under the glove box.

2. Press the parking brake pedal.

3. Press the VSA off switch, and hold it.

4. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

5. Release the VSA off switch after the VSA activation indicator goes off twice.

6. Press the VSA off switch after the VSA activation indicator comes on.

7. Release the VSA off switch after the VSA activation indicator goes off.

8. Press the VSA off switch after the VSA activation indicator starts blinking.

9. Release the VSA off switch after the VSA activation indicator stops blinking.

10. Turn the ignition switch OFF, then repeat steps 2 through 10 for 4 times.ProCarManuals.com
