TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL) DIAGNOSIS
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)13C-24
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The TCL automatically goes to ON, when the 
ignition is turned to the "ON" position. To deacti-
vate the TCL, press the TCL switch. To reactivate 
the TCL , press the TCL switch again.
ABS/TCL-ECU send the illumination signal of 
"TCL OFF" indicator light and TCL work indicator 
light to the combination meter via the CAN com-
munication.
ABS/TCL-ECU operates the "TCL OFF" indicator 
light and the TCL work indicator light for three 
seconds after the ignition switch is turned "ON" 
position for bulb check.

DATA LIST REFERENCE TABLEM1136003500071
NOTE: If the ABS-8 ECU or the active wheel 
speed sensor are disconnected, or if the wiring is 
an open/ short circuit, the ABS 8 ECU will shut 
off power supply to the respective wheel speed 
sensor. All other wheel speed sensors will oper-
ate normally. To restore the power supply, the 
ignition switch must be turned to the "OFF" posi-
tion then to the "ON" position again.The following items can be read by the diagnostic 
tool from the ABS/TCL-ECU input data. (Refer to 
P.13C-3).
NOTE: Since the TCL is controlled with the same ABS/TCL-ECU used to control the ABS, the stoplight switch

VOLTAGE AND SIGNAL CHECK AT ABS-ECU 
(A-02) USING OSCILLOSCOPE
NOTE: If the ABS-8 ECU or the active wheel speed 
sensor are disconnected, or if the wiring is an open/ 
short circuit, the ABS 8 ECU will shut off power sup-
ply to the respective wheel speed sensor. All other 
wheel speed sensors will operate normally. To 
restore the power supply, the ignition switch must be 
turned to the "OFF" position then to the "ON" position 
again..
WHEEL SPEED SENSOR AIR GAP:
Sensor air gap:   (0.2mm - 0.85mm).
.
Measure supply voltage for wheel speed sensor using an 
oscilloscope.
(1) ABS-ECU must remain connected.
(2) Wheel speed sensors must emain connected
(3) Remove ABS connector protection cap to access terminal 
location from the rear of connector for back-probing.
(4) Using probe (MB991222) , backprobe  the wheel speed 
sensor voltage supply circuit terminals (16, 9, 6 and 8) at 
the ABS-ECU connector (A-02) individually.
(5) Connect oscilloscope (as per figure 1) shows, to the 
appropriate terminal positions and check supply voltage 
individually with scope.

an oscillopscope
NO :

Measure wheel speed sensor signals using an 
oscilloscope.
NOTE: To check connections of the wheel speed sensors, 
remove the rear seat to access the rear wheel speed sen-
sor connectors, and remove inner front guard (splash 
shield) to access the front wheel speed sensors.
(1) Wheel speed sensor must remain connected to measure 
active sensor.
(2) ABS-ECU must remain connected.
(3) Remove ABS connector protection cap to access terminal 
location from the rear of connector for back-probing.
(4) Using probe (MB991222), backprobe  the wheel speed 
sensor signal circuit terminals (5, 10, 17, 19), and check 
individually at the ABS-ECU connector A-02
(5) The wheel to be tested must be free to turn by hand or be 
driven by brake dynamometer

appropriate terminal positions and check sensor operation 
individually with scope.

(9) Turn wheel by hand at approximately 1 revolution per 
second (r/sec) or drive on brake dynamometer at 5km/h.
The measurement reading of the active wheel speed sen-
sors on the oscilloscope should correspond to figure 3 
below. 
NOTE: If the oscilloscope signal shape is correct and wheel 
sensor air gap is within specification, but the voltage values are 
either higher or lower as shown in the table below, the wheel 
speed sensor must be changed.
