CALIPER INSPECTION
Cylinder Body
CAUTION:

Use new brake fluid to clean. Do not use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. Refer to MA-
11 , "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Check inside surface of cylinder body for score, rust wear, damage or foreign materials. If any of
the above conditions are observed, replace cylinder body.

Minor damage from rust or foreign materials may be eliminated by polishing surface with a fine
emery paper. Replace cylinder body if necessary.
To r q u e M e m b e r
Check for wear, cracks, and damage. If damage or deformation is present, replace the affected part.
Piston
CAUTION:

are stuck to sliding surface.

Check piston for score, rust, wear, damage or presence of foreign materials. Replace if any of the
above conditions are observed.

How to Perform Trouble Diagnoses for Quick and Accurate RepairEFS004XJ
INTRODUCTION
The ABS/TCS/VDC system has an electronic control unit to control
major functions. The control unit accepts input signals from sensors
and controls actuator operation. It is also important to check for con-
ventional problems such as air leaks in the booster or lines, lack of
brake fluid, or other problems with the brake system.
It is much more difficult to diagnose a problem that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent problems are
caused by poor electrical connections or faulty wiring. In this case,
careful checking of suspicious circuits may help prevent the replace-
ment of good parts.
A visual check only may not find the cause of the problem, so a road
test should be performed.
Before undertaking actual checks, take just a few minutes to talk with
a customer who approaches with an ABS/TCS/VDC complaint. The
customer is a very good source of information on such problems,
especially intermittent ones. Through the talks with the customer,
find out what symptoms are present and under what conditions they
occur.
Start your diagnosis by looking for “conventional” problems first. This
is one of the best ways to troubleshoot brake problems on an ABS/
TCS/VDC equipped vehicle. Also check related Service Bulletins for
information.

4. CHECK DATA MONITOR
1. Connect steering angle sensor and ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connectors.
2. Use “DATA MONITOR ” to check if the status of "STR ANGLE SIG" is normal.
OK or NG
OK >> Perform ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) self-diagnosis again.
NG >> Replace spiral cable (steering angle sensor) and adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-62, "
Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .
Yaw Rate/Side/Decel G Sensor System InspectionEFS004XV
CAUTION:
Sudden turns (such as spin turns, acceleration turns), drifting, etc. when VDC function is OFF may
cause the yaw rate/side/decel G sensor system to indicate a problem. This is not a problem if normal
operation can be resumed after restarting the engine.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULT CHECK
Check self-diagnosis results.
CAUTION:
If vehicle is on turn table at entrance to parking garage, or on other moving surface, VDC OFF indica-
tor lamp may illuminate and CONSULT-II self-diagnosis may indicate yaw rate sensor system malfunc-
tion. However, in this case there is no malfunction in yaw rate sensor system. Take vehicle off of turn
table or other moving surface, and start engine. Results will return to normal.
Is the above displayed in the self-diagnosis display items?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Inspection End.
2. CONNECTOR INSPECTION
Disconnect the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector E125 and yaw rate/side/decel G sensor
connector M108.
Check the terminals for deformation, disconnection, looseness or damage.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Repair or replace as necessary.

10. Lift up and remove the radiator.CAUTION:
Do not damage or scratch air conditioner condenser and
radiator core when removing.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

Check for leaks of engine coolant. Refer to CO-10, "CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS" .

Start and warm up the engine. Visually check for leaks of the engine coolant and A/T fluid.
Checking RadiatorEBS00REC
Check radiator for mud or clogging. If necessary, clean radiator as follows.
CAUTION:

Be careful not to bend or damage the radiator fins.

When radiator is cleaned without removal, remove all surrounding parts such as cooling fan, radi-
ator shroud and horns. Then tape the harness and electrical connectors to prevent water from
entering.
1. Apply water by hose to the back side of the radiator core vertically downward.
2. Apply water again to all radiator core surfaces.
3. Stop washing when dirt and debris no longer flow out from the radiator.
4. Blow air into the back side of radiator core vertically downward.

Use compressed air lower than 490 kPa (5 kg/cm2 , 71 psi) and keep distance more than 30 cm (11.8
in).
5. Blow air again into all the radiator core surfaces until no water sprays out.
