ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) P ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) DESCRIPTION - 1. There is the following distinctive characteristics in the ABS vehicles compared with the non-ABS vehicles. Note that it does not indicate malfunction. When the brakes are applied rapidly or on a slippery road surface, the ABS will activate; the brake pedal will pulsate slightly and the vehicle and the steering wheel will vibrate slightly. When the vehicle speed reaches approximately 6 kmh (3.8 mph}, the pump motor sound is heard momentarily. This sound is due to ABS self-diagnosis. 2. By retaining or reducing the hydraulic fluid pressure in the hydraulic unit, the ABS tester is used to locate the cause of a problem within the antilock brake system. Because there is no way to check the ABS control unit itself, replace the control unit assembly only after first confirming that the other electrical parts operate normally.

Turn the ignition switch OFF. 2. Connect the SST harness to an extension harness, and wrap the connection with electrical tape to prevent short- ing. 3. Connect the SST between the hydraulic unit wiring har- ness connectors and to the positive battery terminal. 4. Roll back the carpet and remove the protecter. 5. Connect the ABS tester to the control unit connector at harness side .using the adaptor. Warning Driving the vehicle while the tester is connected to the ABS control unit is extremely dangerous. The brakes could fail, resulting in death or seri- / -1 ous injury. Disconnect the tester from the ABS control unit before driving the vehicle. Gartner Banana
