BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM 5A-19

System Components
Electronic Hydraulic Control Unit (EHCU), four Wheel
Speed Sensors, two Warning Lamps, and G-sensor.

Electronic Hydraulic Control Unit (EHCU)

The EHCU consists of ABS control circuits, fault
detector, and a fail-safe. It drives the EHCU according
to the signal from each sensor, cancelling ABS to return
to normal braking when a malfunction has occurred in
the ABS.
The EHCU has a self-diagnosing function which can
indicate faulty circuits during diagnosis.
The EHCU is mounted on the engine compartment rear
left side. It consists of a motor, solenoid valves fail safe
relay.
Solenoid Valves: Reduces or holds the caliper fluid
pressure for each front brake or both rear brakes
according to the signal sent from the EHCU.
Buffer chamber: Temporarily holds the brake fluid that
returns from the front and rear brake so that pressure
of front brake can be reduced smoothly.
Motor: Drives the pump according to the signal from
EHCU.
Fail safe Relay: When failure occurs in ABS.
The power supply to solenoid Valve is cut.

ABS Warning Lamp


825L300001
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-lock Brake System
have an amber “ABS” warning lamp in the instrument
panel. The “ABS” warning lamp will illuminate if a
malfunction in the Anti-lock Brake System is detected
by the Electronic Hydraulic Control Unit (EHCU). In
case of an electronic malfunction, the EHCU will turn
“ON” the “ABS” warning lamp and disable the anti-lock
braking function.

The “ABS” warning lamp will turn “ON” for
approximately three seconds after the ignition switch is
to the “ON” position.
If the “ABS” warning lamp stays “ON” after the ignition
switch is the “ON” position, or comes “ON” and stays
“ON” while driving, the Anti-lock Brake System should
be inspected for a malfunction according to the
diagnosis procedure.

Wheel Speed Sensor (WSS)
It consists of a sensor and a rotor. The sensor is
attached to the knuckle on the front wheels and to the
rear wheels.
The rotor is press-fit in the axle shaft.

G-Sensor
The G-sensor detects the vehicle deceleration speed
and sends a signal to the EHCU. In 4WD operation, all
four wheels may be decelerated in almost the same
phase, since all wheels are connected mechanically.
This tendency is noticeable particularly on roads with
low friction coefficient, and the ABS control is adversely
affected.
The G-sensor judges whether the friction coefficient of
road surface is low or high, and changes the EHCU's
operating system to ensure ABS and EBD control.

Normal and Anti-lock Braking
Under normal driving conditions, the Anti-lock Brake
System functions the same as a standard power
assisted brake system. However, with the detection of
wheel lock-up, a slight bump or kick-back will be felt in
the brake pedal. This pedal “bump” will be followed by a
series of short pedal pulsations which occurs in rapid
succession. The brake pedal pulsation will continue
until there is no longer a need for the anti-lock function
or until the vehicle is stopped. A slight ticking or
popping noise may be heard during brake applications
when the anti-lock features is being used.
When the anti-lock feature is being used, the brake
pedal may rise even as the brakes are being applied.
This is also normal. Maintaining a constant force on
the pedal will provide the shortest stopping distance.

5A-20 BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM

Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) System

ABS has the EBD function. EBD is a function which
controls braking force distribution of a front wheel and a
rear wheel, and makes brake fluid pressure of a rear
wheel the optimal. If the rate of a slip of a rear wheel
becomes large more than fixed compared with a front
wheel about the rate of a slip in order to perform
braking force distribution of a front wheel and a rear
wheel, the brake fluid pressure of a rear wheel will be
controlled. EBD enables it to always utilize the braking
power of a rear wheel for the maximum according to
the load change concerning the back axis by vehicles
loading states (No luggage, loading, etc.), deceleration,
etc. Brake fluid pressure control to a rear wheel is
performed by the EBD function which used the ABS
function without the mechanical proportioning valve.
C05L300016
Brake Pedal Travel
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-lock Brake System may
be stopped by applying normal force to the brake pedal.
Although there is no need to push the pedal beyond the
point where it stops or holds the vehicle, by applying
more force the pedal will continue to travel toward the
floor.
This extra brake pedal travel is normal.

General Diagnosis
General Information
ABS troubles can be classified into two types, those
which can be detected by the ABS warning lamp and
those which can be detected as a vehicle abnormality
by the driver.
In either case, locate the fault in accordance with the
“BASIC DIAGNOSTIC FLOWCHART” and repair.
Please refer to Section 5C for the diagnosis of
mechanical troubles such as brake noise, brake judder
(brake pedal or vehicle vibration felt when braking),
uneven braking, and parking brake trouble.

ABS Service Precautions
Required Tools and Items:

Box Wrench
 Brake Fluid

Special Tool
Some diagnosis procedures in this section require the
installation of a special tool.

5-8840-0366-0 High Impedance Multimeter
When circuit measurements are requested, use a
circuit tester with high impedance.

BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM 5A-21

Computer System Service Precautions
The Anti-lock Brake System and Electronic Brake-force
Distribution interfaces directly with the Electronic
Hydraulic Control Unit (EHCU) which is a control
computer that is similar in some regards to the Engine
Control Module. These modules are designed to
withstand normal current draws associated with vehicle
operation. However, care must be taken to avoid
overloading any of the EHCU circuits. In testing for
opens or shorts, do not ground or apply voltage to any
of the circuits unless instructed to do so by the
appropriate diagnostic procedure. These circuits should
only be tested with a high impedance multimeter
5-8840-0366-0 or special tools as described in this
section. Power should never be removed or applied to
any control module with the ignition in the “ON”
position.
Before removing or connecting battery cables, fuses or
connectors, always turn the ignition switch to the “OFF”
position.

General Service Precautions
The following are general precautions which should be
observed when servicing and diagnosing the Anti-lock
Brake System and/or other vehicle systems. Failure to
observe these precautions may result in Anti-lock Brake
System and Electronic Brake-force Distribution
damage.
 If welding work is to be performed on the vehicle
using an electric arc welder, the EHCU and valve
block connectors should be disconnected before
the welding operation begins.
 The EHCU and valve block connectors should
never be connected or disconnected with the
ignition “ON”.
Note:
 If only rear wheels are rotated using jacks or drum
tester, the system will diagnose a speed sensor
malfunction and the “ABS and Brake” warning lamp
will illuminate. But actually no trouble exists. When
the DTC is not detected and the ABS and BRAKE
warning lamp is on, “How to erase code” is
performed and a ABS and BRAKE warning lamp
are off.
If the battery has been discharged
The engine may stall if the battery has been completely
discharged and the engine is started via jumper cables.
This is because the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) and
Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) System
requires a large quantity of electricity. In this case, wait
until the battery is recharged, or set the ABS and EBD
to a non-operative state by removing the fuse for the
ABS. After the battery has been recharged, stop the
engine and install the ABS fuse. Start the engine again,
and confirm that the ABS warning Lamp does not light.
Note on Intermittents
As with virtually any electronic system, it is difficult to
identify an intermittent failure. In such a case
duplicating the system malfunction during a test drive or
a good description of vehicle behavior from the
customer may be helpful in locating a “most likely”
failed component or circuit. The symptom diagnosis
chart may also be useful in isolating the failure. Most
intermittent problems are caused by faulty electrical
connections or wiring. When an intermittent failure is
encountered, check suspect circuits for:
 Suspected harness damage.
 Poor mating of connector halves or terminals not
fully seated in the connector body (backed out).
 Improperly formed or damaged terminals.

Test Driving ABS Complaint Vehicles
In case that there has been an abnormality in the
lighting pattern of “ABS” warning lamp, the fault can be
located in accordance with the “DIAGNOSIS BY “ABS”
WARNING LAMP ILLUMINATION PATTERN”. In case
of such trouble as can be detected by the driver as a
vehicle symptom, however, it is necessary to give a test
drive following the test procedure mentioned below,
thereby reproducing the symptom for trouble diagnosis
on a symptom basis:
1.
Start the engine and make sure that the “ABS” W/L
goes OFF. If the W/L remains ON, it means that
the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is stored.
Therefore, read the code and locate the fault.
Note: The DTC cannot be cleared if the vehicle speed
does not exceed about 6km/h (4mph) at DTC, even
though the repair operation is completed.
2. Start the vehicle and accelerate to about 30 km/h
(19 mph) or more.
3. Slowly brake and stop the vehicle completely.
4. Then restart the vehicle and accelerate to about 40
km/h (25 mph) or more.
5. Brake at a time so as to actuate the ABS and stop
the vehicle.
6. Be cautious of abnormality during the test. If the
W/L is actuated while driving, read the DTC and
locate the fault.
7. If the abnormality is not reproduced by the test,
make best efforts to reproduce the situation
reported by the customer.
8. If the abnormality has been detected, repair in
accordance with the “SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS” .
Note:

Be sure to give a test drive on a wide, even road
with a small traffic.
 If an abnormality is detected, be sure to suspend
the test and start trouble diagnosis at once.

5A-22 BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM

“ABS” Warning Lamp
When ABS and trouble occurs to actuate “ABS”
warning lamp, the trouble code corresponding to the
trouble is stored in the EHCU. Only ordinary brake is
available with ABS being unactuated. Even when
“ABS” warning lamp is actuated, if the starter switch is
set ON after setting it OFF once, the EHCU checks up
on the entire system and, if there is no abnormality,
judges ABS to work currently and the warning lamp is lit
normally even though the trouble code is stored.
NOTE: Illumination of the “ABS” warning lamp indicates
that anti-lock braking is no longer available. Power
assisted braking without anti-lock control is still
available.

Normal Operation
“ABS ” Warning Lamp
When the ignition is first moved from “OFF” to “RUN”,
the amber “ABS” warning lamp will turn “ON”. The
“ABS” warning lamp will turn “ON” during engine
starting and will usually stay “ON” for approximately
three seconds after the ignition switch is returned to the
“ON” position. The warning lamp should remain “OFF”
at all other times.

Brake (EBD) Warning Lamp

825L300001
Vehicles equipped with the EBD (Electronic Brake-force
Distribution) System have an have “Brake” warning
lamp in the instrument panel.
If ABS warning lamp and Brake warning lamp are turn
"ON", then EBD is failed. ( Parking brake switch is
"OFF")
In the following conditions, EBD warning lamp is "ON".
 Starter switch is "ON", engine "OFF".
( Parking brake switch is "OFF")
If engine is started, then EBD warning lamp is "OFF".
( Parking brake switch is "OFF")
