In order to effectively diagnose an Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS) condition. It is important to read Sec-
tion 1 of this manual, Anti-Lock Brake System De-
scription. This section will give you information on
the function of the ABS components. Then follow the
diagnostic procedures outlined in this section. Many conditions that generate customer com-
plaints of the ABS system may be normal operating
conditions. These conditions though are judged to be
a problem due to unfamiliarity with the ABS system.
These conditions can be recognized without perform-
ing extensive diagnostic work, given adequate under-
standing of operating principles and performance
characteristics of the ABS system. See Section 1 of
this manual to familiarize yourself with the operat-
ing principles of the ABS system.

The ABS system uses an electronic control module,
the (CAB). This module is designed to withstand nor-
mal current draws associated with vehicle operation.
However care must be taken to avoid overloading the
(CAB) circuits. In testing for open or short circuits, do
not ground or apply voltage to any of the circuits unless
instructed to do so by the appropriate diagnostic pro-
cedure. These circuits should only be tested using a
high impedance multi-meter, special tools or the DRB
II tester as described in this section. Power should
never be removed or applied to any control module with
the ignition in the ON position. Before removing or
connecting battery cables, fuses, or connectors, always
turn the ignition to the OFF position.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Each vehicle is equipped with lamps used for illumi-
nating and indicating purposes. A circuit must have a
good ground to be complete. Circuit ground occurs
when the lamp socket makes contact with the metal
body. On vehicles with plastic lamps, a wire between
the socket and the body makes the grounds. When changing lamp bulbs, check the socket for
corrosion. If corrosion is present, clean contacts with a
wire brush and coat the inside of the socket with
Mopar tMulti-purpose Grease or equivalent.
CAUTION: Do not touch the glass of halogen bulbs
with fingers or any possibly oily surface, reduced
bulb life will result.
