ACTIVE TEST
CAUTION:

Do not perform active test while driving.

Make sure to completely bleed air from the brake system.

The ABS and brake (EBD) warning lamps turn on during the active test.
Operation Procedure
1. Connect the CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to the data link connector and start the engine.
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carries out CAN communication.
2. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL) ” on the display screen.
3. Touch “ABS”.
If “ABS” is not indicated, go to GI-39, "
CONSULT-II Data Link Connector (DLC) Circuit" .
4. Touch “ACTIVE TEST”.
5. The test item selection screen is displayed.
6. Touch necessary test item.
7. With the “MAIN SIGNALS” display selected, touch “START”.
8. The Active Test screen will be displayed, so conduct the following test.
Solenoid Valve Operation Chart
*: ON for 1 to 2 seconds after the touch, and then OFF
NOTE:

If active test is performed with brake pedal depressed, pedal stroke may change. This is normal.

“TEST IS STOPPED” is displayed approximately 10 seconds after operation starts.

After “TEST IS STOPPED” is displayed, to perform test again, repeat Step 6.

4. CHECK WHEEL BEARINGS
Check wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to FAX-5, "
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION" or RAX-5, "WHEEL
BEARING INSPECTION" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 5.
NG >> Repair or replace as necessary. Refer to FAX-5, "
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION" or RAX-5,
"WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION" .
5. CHECK WIRING HARNESS FOR SHORT CIRCUIT
1. Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connec-
tor and wheel sensor connector of malfunction code No.
2. Check resistance between wheel sensor harness connector ter-
minals and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 6.
NG >> Repair the circuit.Continuity should not exist.
