CAUTION:
The VDC warning lamp, ABS warning lamp and br ake warning lamp turns ON and DTC “C118E” may
be detected in self-diagnosis result of “ABS” when the brake pedal is excessively operated, such as
air bleeding. This is not a system malfunction because this occurs due to the temporary decrease in
accumulator fluid pressure. The system returns to normal condition when the accumulator fluid pres-
sure reaches the specified pressure with the ignition switch ON and the VDC warning lamp, ABS warn-
ing lamp, and brake warning lamp turn OFF. After these steps, ABS self-diagnosis results are erased.

1.ERASE SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULT
CAUTION:
The VDC warning lamp, ABS warning lamp and br ake warning lamp turns ON and DTC “C118E” may
be detected in self-diagnosis result of “ABS” when the brake pedal is excessively operated, such as
air bleeding. This is not a system malfunction because this occurs due to the temporary decrease in
accumulator fluid pressure. The system returns to normal condition when the accumulator fluid pres-
sure reaches the specified pressure with the ignition switch ON and the VDC warning lamp, ABS warn-
ing lamp, and brake warning lamp turn OFF. After these steps, ABS self-diagnosis results are erased.
With CONSULT-III.
1. Erase Self-diagnosis result for “ABS”.
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Depress brake pedal to full stroke 20 times or more.
4. Start the engine, and then wait 2 minutes or more.
5. Check VDC warning lamp, ABS warning lamp and brake warning lamp turns OFF.
6. Perform self-diagnosis for “ABS”.
Is any DTC detected?
YES >> Check the DTC. Refer to BRC-51, "DTC Index".
NO >> INSPECTION END
