ABS Control Unit
Main Control
The ABS control unit detects the wheel speed based on the wheel sensor signal it received, then it calculates the
vehicle speed based on the detected wheel speed. The control unit detects the vehicle speed during deceleration
based on the rate of deceleration.
The ABS control unit calculates the slip rate of each wheel and transmits the control signal to the modulator unit
solenoid valve when the slip rate is high.
The pressure reduction control has three modes: pressure reducing, pressure retaining, and pressure intensifying.
Self-diagnosis Function

2. The CPUS check the circuit of the system.
3. TheABScontrol unitturns ontheABS ind icator when the unitdetectsa problem andthe unit stops th e system.
4. The self-diagnosis can be classified into these two categories:. lnitial diagnosis. Regular diagnosis
On-board Diagnosis Function
The ABS can be diagnosed with the Honda PGM Tester.
The ALB Checker cannot be used with this system. For air bleeding and checking wheel sensor signals. use the Honda
PGM Tester. See the Honda PGM Tester user's manual for specific operating instructions.

System Description (cont'd)
ABS Modulator
The ABS modulator consists of the inlet solenoid valves, outlet solenoid valves, reservoir, pump, pump motor, and the
damping chamber. The modulator reduces the caliper fluid pressure directly. lt is a circulating-type modulator
becausethe brakefluidcirculatesthroughthecaliper,reservoir,andthemastercylinder.Thehydrauliccontrol has
three modes: pressure intensifying, pressure retaining, and pressure reducing. The hydraulic circuit is an independent
four-channeltype, one channel for each wheel.
Pressure intensifying mode: Inletvalve open, outlel valve closed
Master cylinder fluid is pumped out to the caliper.
Pressure retaining mode: lnlet valve closed, outlet valve closed
Caliper fluid is retained by the inlet valve and outlet valve.
Pressure reducing mode: Inlet valve closed, outlet valve open
Caliper fluid flows through the outlet valve to the reservoir.
lvlotor operation mode: When starting the pressure reducing mode, the pump motor is ON.
When stopping ABS operation, the pump motor is OFF.
The caliper fluid is pumped out by the pump, through the damping chamber, to the
master cvlinder.

t
Wheel Sensors
The wheel sensors are the magnetic contactless type. As the gear pulser teeth rotate past the wheel sensor's magnetic
coil, AC current is generated. The AC frequency changes in accordance with the wheel speed. The ABS control unit
detects the wheel sensor signal frequency and thereby detects the wheel speed.

When the wheel speed drops sharply below the vehicle speed, the inlet valve closes and il necessary, the outlet valve
opens momentarily to reduce the caliper fluid pressure. The pump motor starts at this time. As the wheel speed is
restored, and the outlet valve closes, the inlet valve opens momentarily to increase the caliper fluid pressure.

6. To remove a front drain valve (A)from the body,
remove the kick panel, left or right (see page 20-50).

the front drain tube (B) down out of the front pillar.
To remove a rear drain valve (A) from the cargo
compartment, remove the rear side trim panel (see
page 20-51).Detach the clips (B), then remove the
drain tube (C),

8. Installthe frame and drain tube in the reverse order
of removal, and note these items:
. Before installing the frame, clear the drain tubes
and drain valves using compressed air.. Check the frame seal.. Clean the surface ofthe frame.. When installing the frame, first attach the rear
hooks into the body holes.. Make sure the connectors are plugged in
properly.
. When connecting the drain tube, slide it overthe
frame nozzle at least 10 mm (0.39 in.)..Installthetubeclip(A) on the drain tube (B) as
shown.

This vehicle uses HFC-134a (R-'134a) refrigerant which does not contain ch lorofluorocarbons. Pay attention to the
following service items:
. Do not mix refrigerants CFC-12 (R-12) and HFC-134a (R-134a). They are notcompatible.. Use onlythe recommended polyalkyleneglycol (PAG ) refrigera nt oil (KElHlN SP '!0) designedfortheR-134a
compressor. Intermixing the recommended (PAG) refrigerant oil with any other retrigerant oil will result in
compressor failu re.. AllAy'C system parts (compressor, discharge line, suction line, evaporator, condenser, receiver/dryer. expansion
valve, O-rings for joints) have to be designed for refrigerant R 134a. Do not exchange with R-'12 parts.
. Use a halogen gas leak detector designed for refrigerant R-134a.. R-12 and R-134a refrigerant servicing equipment are not interchangeable. Use only a recovery/recycling/charging
station that is U.L.-listed and is certified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to service R-134a air conditioning
system.. Always recover the refrigerant R-134a with an approved recovery/recycling/charging station before disconnecting
any Ay'C fifting.

5. Carefully pull out the evaporator core without
bending the pipes.
Installthe core in the reverse order of removal, and
note these items.
. lfyou're installing a new evaporator core, add
refrigerant oil (KElHlN SP-]0) (see page 21-6).. Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting,
and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil before
installing them. Be sure to use the correct O-rings
for HFC-134a (R-'134a) to avoid leakage.. lmmediatelyafter usingthe oil, reinstallthecap
on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture
absorotion.. Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it
may damage the paint. lf the refrigerant oil
contacts the paint, wash it off immediately.. Charge the system (see page 21-55).
