 Downsize and weight reduction is aimed. IC for detection portion and magnet for sensor rotor are adopted.
 Power supply is supplied to detection portion so that magnetic field
line is read. Magnetic field that is detected is converted to current
signal.
 When sensor rotor rotates, magnetic field changes. Magnetic field
change is converted to current signals (rectangular wave) and is
transmitted to ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit). Change
of magnetic field is pr oportional to wheel speed.
Stop Lamp SwitchINFOID:0000000006222563
Detects the operation status of brake pedal and transmits converted electric signal to ABS actuator and elec-
tric unit (control unit).
Steering Angle SensorINFOID:0000000006222564
Detects the following information and transmits steering angle signal to ABS actuator and electric unit (control
unit) via CAN communication.
 Steering wheel rotation amount
 Steering wheel rotation angular velocity
 Steering wheel rotation direction
Yaw Rate/Side/Decel G sensorINFOID:0000000006222565
Calculates the following information that affects the v ehicle and transmits a signal to ABS actuator and electric
unit (control unit) via communication lines.
 Vehicle rotation angular velocity (yaw rate signal)
 Vehicle lateral acceleration (side G signal) / longitudinal acceleration (decel G signal)
Brake Fluid Level SwitchINFOID:0000000006222566
Detects the brake fluid level in reservoir tank and trans mits converted electric signal from ABS actuator and
electric unit (control unit), when brake fluid level is the specified level or less.
Parking Brake SwitchINFOID:0000000006222567
Detects the operation status of parking brake switch and transmits converted electric signal from combination
meter to ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
VDC OFF SwitchINFOID:0000000006222568
 VDC OFF switch is integrated in SNOW MODE / TOW MODE / VDC OFF switch assembly (2WD models) or
4WD switch assembly (4WD models).
 The operation of the VDC OFF switch enables the arbi trary switching of the VDC function between stop sta-
tus and standby status. The status of the function is indicated by the VDC OFF indicator lamp. (ON: Non-
operational status, OFF: Standby status)
- VDC function NOTE:
Brake limited slip differentia l (BLSD) control operates.
- TCS function
 VDC OFF indicator lamp turns OFF (standby status) when the engine is started again after it is stopped once while VDC OFF indicator lamp is ON (non-operational status).

INSPECTION AFTER ASSEMBLY
Inspection for Leakage
The following are procedures for chec king fluid leakage, lubricant leakage. Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If any are less than the
required quantity, fill them to the specified level. Refer to MA-10, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
 Follow the procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
- Turn ignition switch to the “ON” position (with engi ne stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping,
check for fuel leakage at connection points.
- Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
 Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside chain tensioner drops after removal/installation, slack in guide may generate a
pounding noise during and just after the engine start. However, this does not indicate a malfunction. The
noise will stop after hydraulic pressure rises.
 Warm up engine thoroughly to check that there is no leak age of fuel, or any oil/fluids including engine oil and
engine coolant.
 Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
 After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill them to the specified level, if necessary.
