ing.
OK or NG
OK >> CHECK WHEEL SENSOR. Refer to BRC-49, "Excessive ABS Function Operation Frequency".

activated and vibration is felt. However, this is normal.
 When shifting gears
 When driving on slippery road
 During cornering at high speed
 When passing over bumps or grooves
 When pulling away just after st arting engine [at approximately 10 km/h (6 MPH) or higher]
1.SYMPTOM CHECK 1
Check if pedal vibration or operati on sound occurs when engine is started.
OK or NG
OK >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-26, "Self-Diagnosis".
NG >> GO TO 2.
2.SYMPTOM CHECK 2
Check symptom when electrical component (headlamps, etc.) switches are operated.
Does the symptom occur when the electrical component (head lamp, etc.) switches are operated?
YES >> Check if there is a radio, antenna, antenna lead wi re, or wiring close to ABS actuator and electric
unit (control unit) (or its wiring), and if there is, move it farther away.
NO >> CHECK WHEEL SENSOR. Refer to BRC-49, "
Excessive ABS Function Operation Frequency".
Vehicle Jerks During VDC/TCS/ABS ControlINFOID:0000000001327697
1.CHECK ENGINE SPEED SIGNAL
Perform CONSULT-III “DATA MONITOR” to check engine speed.
Is engine speed at idle 400 rpm or higher?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK ABS WARNING LAMP DISPLAY
Make sure warning lamp turns off approximately 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON or when driv-
ing.
OK or NG
OK >> System is normal.
NG >> GO TO 3.
3.CHECK ECM SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
Perform ECM self-diagnosis.
Are self-diagnosis items displayed?
YES >> Check the corresponding items. Refer to EC-89(VQ35DE), EC-666(VK45DE) in “Engine Control
(EC section)”.

ed Position LearningINFOID:0000000001325923
DESCRIPTION
Accelerator Pedal Released Position Learning is an operation to learn the fully released position of the accel-
erator pedal by monitoring the accelerator pedal posit ion sensor output signal. It must be performed each time
harness connector of accelerator pedal position sensor or ECM is disconnected.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Make sure that accelerator pedal is fully released.
2. Turn ignition switch ON and wait at least 2 seconds.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
