ING BEFORE FLARING THE TUBING.
DOUBLE INVERTED TUBING FLARES
To make a double inverted tubing flare (Fig. 39)
and (Fig. 40). Open handles of Flaring Tool, Special
Tool C-4047 or equivalent. Then rotate jaws of tool
until the mating jaws of tubing size are centered
between vertical posts on tool. Slowly close handles
with tubing inserted in jaws but do not apply heavy
pressure to handle as this will lock tubing in place.Place gauge (Form A) on edge over end of brake
tubing. Push tubing through jaws until end of tubing
contacts the recessed notch in gauge matching the
tubing size. Squeeze handles of flaring tool and lock
tubing in place. Place 3/16 inch plug of gauge (A)
down in end of tubing. Swing compression disc over
gauge and center tapered flaring screw in recess of
disc. Screw in until plug gauge has seated on jaws of
flaring tool. This action has started to invert the
extended end of the tubing. Remove gauge and con-
tinue to screw down until tool is firmly seated in tub-
ing. Remove tubing from flaring tool and inspect
seat. Refer to tube routing diagrams for proper brake
tube routing and clip locations. Replace any damaged
tube routing clips.
ISO TUBING FLARES
CAUTION: All ISO style tubing flares (Fig. 39) and
(Fig. 40) are of metric dimensions. When performing
any service procedures on vehicles using ISO style
tubing flares, metric size tubing of 4.75 mm MUST
be used with metric ISO tube flaring equipment.
To create a (metric) ISO style tubing flare, Use
Snap-On Flaring Tool TFM-428, or equivalent. See
(Fig. 41) and proceed with the steps listed below.Be
sure to place the tubing nut on the tube before
flaring the tubing.
(1) Carefully prepare the end of the tubing to be
flared. Be sure the end of the tubing to be flared is
square and all burrs on the inside of the tubing are
removed (Fig. 38).This preparation is essential to

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
ANTILOCK BRAKES OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The purpose of an Antilock Brake System (ABS) is to
prevent wheel lock-up under braking conditions on virtu-
ally any type of road surface. Antilock Braking is desirable
because a vehicle which is stopped without locking the
wheels will retain directional stability and some steering
capability. This allows the driver to retain greater control
of the vehicle during braking.
This section of the service manual covers the description
and on car service for the ITT Teves Mark 20 ABS Brake
System and the ITT Teves Mark 20 ABS Brake System
with Traction Control. If other service is required on the
non ABS related components of the brake system, refer to
the appropriate section in this group of the service manual
for the specific service procedure required.

ler, controls the yellow ABS warning lamp by directly
grounding the circuit.
HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS AND VALVE OPERATION
Through the following operation descriptions the
function of the various hydraulic control valves in the
ABS will be described. The fluid control valves men-
tioned below, control the flow of pressurized brake
fluid to the wheel brakes during the different modes
of ABS braking.
For explanation purposes, all wheel speed sensors
except the right front are sending the same wheel
speed information. The following diagrams show only
the right front wheel in a antilock braking condition.
NORMAL BRAKING HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT AND
SOLENOID VALVE FUNCTION
This condition is the normal operation of the vehi-
cles base brake hydraulic system. The hydraulic sys-
tem circuit diagram (Fig. 11) shows a situation where
no wheel spin or slip is occurring relative to the
speed of the vehicle. The driver is applying the brake
pedal to build pressure in the brake hydraulic system
to apply the brakes and stop the vehicle.
TEVES MARK 20 ABS CIRCUIT AND
SOLENOID VALVE FUNCTION
This hydraulic circuit diagram (Fig. 12) shows the
vehicle in the ABS braking mode. This hydraulic cir-
cuit (Fig. 12) shows a situation where one wheel is
slipping because the driver is attempting to stop the
vehicle at a faster rate than the surface the vehicle's
tires are on will allow. The normally open and nor-
mally closed valves modulate the brake hydraulic
pressure as required. The pump/motor is switched on
so that the brake fluid from the low pressure accu-
mulators is returned to the master cylinder circuits.
The brake fluid will then be routed to either the mas-
ter cylinder or the wheel brake depending on the
position of the normally open valve.
TEVES MARK 20 SECONDARY ABS CIRCUIT

cuit (Fig. 13) shows a situation where one wheel is
slipping because the driver is attempting to stop the
vehicle at a faster rate than the surface the vehicle's
tires are on will allow. The normally open and nor-
mally closed valves modulate the brake hydraulic
pressure as required. The pump/motor is switched on
so that the brake fluid from the low pressure accu-

mulators is returned to the master cylinder circuits.
The brake fluid will then be routed to either the mas-
ter cylinder or the wheel brake depending on the
position of the normally open valve. A volume of 1.2
cc's of brake fluid is taken in by the lip seal saver
(Fig. 13) to protect the lip seals on the piston of the
master cylinder.

CIRCUIT ± SOLENOID AND SHUTTLE VALVE
FUNCTION
This condition is the normal operation of the vehi-
cles base brake hydraulic system when the vehicle is
equipped with ABS and traction control. The hydrau-
lic system circuit diagram (Fig. 14) shows a situation
where no wheel spin or slip is occurring relative to
the speed of the vehicle. The driver is applying the
brake pedal to build pressure in the brake hydraulic
system to apply the brakes and stop the vehicle. The
hydraulic shuttle valve (Fig. 14) closes with every
brake pedal application so pressure is not created at
the inlet to the pump.

FUNCTION
This hydraulic circuit diagram (Fig. 15) shows a
vehicle equipped with ABS and traction control in
the ABS braking mode. This hydraulic circuit (Fig.
15) shows a situation where one wheel is slipping
because the driver is attempting to stop the vehicle
at a faster rate than the surface the vehicle's tires
are on will allow. The hydraulic shuttle valve (Fig.
15) closes upon brake application so that the pump
can not suck brake fluid from the master cylinder.
The normally open and normally closed valves mod-
ulate the brake hydraulic pressure as required. The
pump/motor is switched on so that the brake fluid
from the low pressure accumulators is returned to
the master cylinder circuits. The brake fluid will
then be routed to either the master cylinder or the
wheel brake depending on the position of the nor-
mally open valve.

CIRCUIT ± SOLENOID AND SHUTTLE VALVE
FUNCTION
This hydraulic circuit diagram (Fig. 16) shows a
vehicle equipped with ABS and traction control in
the traction control mode. The hydraulic circuit (Fig.
16) shows a situation where a driven wheel is spin-
ning and brake pressure is required to reduce its
speed. The normally open ASR valve (Fig. 16) is ener-
gized to isolate the brake fluid being pumped from
the master cylinder and to isolate the driven wheel.
Also, the normally open ASR valve bypasses the
pump output back to the master cylinder at a fixed
pressure setting. The normally open and normally
closed valves (Fig. 16) modulate the brake pressure
as required to the spinning wheel.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
ABS GENERAL DIAGNOSTICS INFORMATION
This section contains the information necessary to
diagnose the ITT Teves Mark 20 ABS Brake System.
Specifically, this section should be used to help diag-
nose conditions which result in any of the following:
(1) ABS Warning Lamp turned on.(2) Brakes Lock-up on hard application
Diagnosis of base brake conditions which are obvi-
ously mechanical in nature should be directed to
Group 5 Brakes in this service manual. This includes
brake noise, brake pulsation, lack of power assist,
parking brake, Red BRAKE Warning Lamp lighting,
or vehicle vibration during normal braking.
Many conditions that generate customer com-
plaints may be normal operating conditions, but are
judged to be a problem due to not being familiar with
the ABS system. These conditions can be recognized
without performing extensive diagnostic work, given
adequate understanding of the operating principles
and performance characteristics of the ABS. See the
ABS System Operation Section in this group of the
service manual to familiarize yourself with the oper-
ating principles of the ABS system.
ABS WIRING DIAGRAM INFORMATION
During the diagnosis of the antilock brake system
it may become necessary to reference the wiring dia-
grams covering the antilock brake system and its
components. For wiring diagrams refer to Antilock
Brakes in Group 8W of this service manual. This
group will provide you with the wiring diagrams and
the circuit description and operation information cov-
ering the antilock brake system.

NSBRAKES 5 - 95
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (Continued)

START-UP CYCLE
The self diagnostic ABS start up cycle begins when
the ignition switch is turned to the on position. Elec-
trical checks are completed on ABS components, such
as the Controller, solenoid continuity, and the system
relay operation. During this check the Amber ABS
Warning Light is turned on for approximately 4 sec-
onds and the brake pedal may emit a popping sound
and move slightly when the solenoid valves are
checked.
DRIVE-OFF CYCLE
Further Functional testing is accomplished once
the vehicle is set in motion and reaches a speed of
about 20 kph (12 mph.). This cycle is performed only
once after each ignition on/off cycle.
²The pump/motor is activated briefly to verify
function. When the pump/motor is activated a whirl-
ing or buzzing sound may be heard by the driver,
which is normal when the pump/motor is running.
²The wheel speed sensor output is verified to be
within the correct operating range.
ONGOING TESTS
Other tests are performed on a continuous basis.
These include checks for solenoid continuity, wheel
speed sensor continuity and wheel speed sensor out-
put.
ABS DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
Diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) are kept in the con-
troller's memory until either erased by the technician
using the DRB or erased automatically after 3500
miles. DTC's are retained by the controller even if
the ignition is turned off or the battery is discon-
nected. More than one DTC can be stored at a time.
The mileage of the most recent occurrence, number of
occurrences and the DTC that was stored is also dis-
played. Most functions of the CAB and the ABS sys-
tem can be accessed by the technician for testing and
diagnostic purposes by using the DRB.
LATCHING VERSUS NON-LATCHING
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
Some DTC's detected by the CAB are latching; the
DTC is latched and ABS braking is disabled until the
ignition switch is reset. Thus ABS braking is non
operational even if the original DTC has disappeared.
Other DTC's are non-latching; any warning lights
that are turned on, are only turned on as long as the
DTC condition exists. As soon as the condition goes
away, the ABS Warning Light is turned off, although
a DTC will be set in most cases.
INTERMITTENT DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
As with virtually any electronic system, intermit-
tent electrical problems in the ABS system may be
difficult to accurately diagnose.
Most intermittent electrical problems are caused
by faulty electrical connections or wiring. When an
intermittent fault is encountered, check suspect cir-
cuits for:
A visual inspection for loose, disconnected, or mis-
routed wires should be done before attempting to
diagnose or service the ITT Teves Mark 20 antilock
brake system. A visual inspection will eliminate
unnecessary testing and diagnostics time. A thorough
visual inspection will include the following compo-
nents and areas of the vehicle.
(1) Inspect fuses in the power distribution center
(PDC) and the wiring junction block. Verify that all
fuses are fully inserted into the PDC and wring junc-
tion block. A label on the underside of the PDC cover
identifies the locations of the ABS fuses in the PDC.
(2) Inspect the 25-way electrical connector at the
CAB for damage, spread or backed-out wiring termi-
nals. Verify that the 25-way connector is fully
inserted in the socket on the CAB. Be sure that wires
are not stretched tight or pulled out of the connector.
(3) Verify that all the wheel speed sensor connec-
tions are secure.
(4) Poor mating of connector halves or terminals
not fully seated in the connector body.
(5) Improperly formed or damaged terminals. All
connector terminals in a suspect circuit should be
carefully reformed to increase contact tension.
(6) Poor terminal to wire connection. This requires
removing the terminal from the connector body to
inspect.
(7) Pin presence in the connector assembly
(8) Proper ground connections. Check all ground
connections for signs of corrosion, tight fasteners, or
other potential defects. Refer to wiring diagram man-
ual for ground locations.
(9) Problems with main power sources of the vehi-
cle. Inspect battery, generator, ignition circuits and
other related relays and fuses.
(10) If a visual check does not find the cause of the
problem, operate the car in an attempt to duplicate
the condition and record the trouble code.
(11) Most failures of the ABS system will disable
ABS function for the entire ignition cycle even if the
fault clears before key-off. There are some failure
conditions, however, which will allow ABS operation
to resume during the ignition cycle in which a failure
occurred if the failure conditions are no longer
present. The following conditions may result in inter-
mittent illumination of the ABS Warning Lamp. All
other failures will cause the lamp to remain on until
the ignition switch is turned off. Circuits involving

use. Refer to Causes of Battery Discharging in this
Group for more information.
NOTE: CLEAR COLOR = Replace Battery
WARNING: DO NOT CHARGE, ASSIST BOOST,
LOAD TEST, OR ADD WATER TO THE BATTERY
WHEN CLEAR COLOR DOT IS VISIBLE. PERSONAL
INJURY MAY OCCUR.
A clear color dot shows electrolyte level in battery
is below the test indicator (Fig. 1). Water cannot be
added to a maintenance free battery. The battery
must be replaced. A low electrolyte level may be
caused by an over charging condition. Refer to Gen-
erator Test Procedures on Vehicle.
CAUSES OF BATTERY DISCHARGING
It is normal to have a small 5 to 25 milliamperes
continuous electrical draw from the battery. This
draw will take place with the ignition in the OFF
position, and the courtesy, dome, storage compart-
ments, and engine compartment lights OFF. The con-
tinuous draw is due to various electronic features or
accessories that require electrical current with the
ignition OFF to function properly. When a vehicle is
not used over an extended period of approximately 20
days the IOD fuse should be pulled. The fuse is
located in the power distribution center. Disconnec-
tion of this fuse will reduce the level of battery dis-
charge. Refer to Battery Diagnosis and Testing table
and to the proper procedures.
ABNORMAL BATTERY DISCHARGING
²Corroded battery posts, cables or terminals.
²Loose or worn generator drive belt.
²Electrical loads that exceed the output of the
charging system due to equipment or accessories
installed after delivery.
²Slow driving speeds in heavy traffic conditions
or prolonged idling with high-amperage electrical
systems in use.²Defective electrical circuit or component causing
excess Ignition Off Draw (IOD). Refer to Battery
Ignition Off Draw (IOD).
²Defective charging system.
²Defective battery.
BATTERY IGNITION OFF DRAW (IOD)
High current draw on the battery with the ignition
OFF will discharge a battery. After a dead battery is
serviced the vehicle Ignition Off Draw (IOD) should
be checked. Determine if a high current draw condi-
tion exists first check the vehicle with a test lamp.
(1) Verify that all electrical accessories are OFF.
²Remove key from ignition switch
²Turn off all lights
²Liftgate and glove box door is closed
²Sun visor vanity lights are OFF
²All doors are closed
²Allow the Illuminated Entry System to time out
in approximately 30 seconds, if equipped.
²During Transmission Control Module (TCM)
power down there will be 500 milliamperes present
for 20 minutes. Afterwards less than 1.0 milliampere.
(2) Disconnect battery negative cable (Fig. 4).
CAUTION: Always disconnect the meter before
opening a door.
(3) Using an multimeter, that has least a milliam-
pere range of 200 mA. Set meter to the highest mA
range. Install meter between the battery negative
cable and battery negative post (Fig. 5). Carefully
remove the test lamp without disconnecting the
meter. After all modules time-out the total vehicle
IOD should be less than 25 milliamperes. If ignition
off draw is more than 25 milliamperes go to Step 4.
(4) Each time the test lamp or milliampere meter
is disconnected and connected, all electronic timer
functions will be activated for approximately one
minute. The Body Control Module (BCM) ignition off
draw can reach 90 milliamperes.
(5) Remove the PDC fuses:
²Interior lamps
²Brake lamp

(6) If there is any reading, with fuses removed
there is a short circuit in the wiring. Refer to Group
8W, wiring diagrams. If reading is less than 25 mA
go to Step 8.
(7) Install all fuses. After installing fuse, the cur-
rent can reach 90 mA. After time-out the reading
should not exceed 25 mA. If OK go to. If not, discon-

(8) Disconnect one component at time, to see if any
component is at fault. If the high reading is not elim-
inated there is a short circuit in the wiring. Refer to
Group 8W, wiring diagrams.
(9) Remove interior and brake lamp fuses. Install
the fuses. The milliampere reading should be 2-4 mA.
If reading is higher than 4 mA:
(a) Disconnect PCM.
(b) If reading is OK, replace PCM.(c) If reading does not change, disconnect the
TCM.
(d) If reading is OK, replace TCM.
(e) If reading stays, there is a short circuit to
one of the modules. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring
Diagrams.
BATTERY LOAD TEST
A fully charged battery must have cranking capac-
ity, to provide the starter motor and ignition system
enough power to start the engine over a broad range
of ambient temperatures. A battery load test will ver-
ify the actual cranking capability of the battery.
