TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
“1. The G. sensor is a sensor associated with ride control (detecting pitching, bouncing and rough road). If itfails, therefore, ride control stops.
“2. A self diagnostic decision on the steering angular velocity sensor is made by the ECS control unit which
internally detects the voltages of the two sensor output lines connected to the ECS control unit to detectan open circuit in the signal line. When the signal line is short-circuited or when the power line is
open-circuited, however, it cannot be detected. In a situation where anti-roll control only stops, if
self-diagnosis code No. 21 is not on display, a short-circuited sensor output line or open-circuited sensorpower line is suspected.
“3. The vehicle speed sensor is a sensor associated with attitude controls (anti-dive, anti-squat) and steering
stability controls (anti-roll, high speed sensitive controls). If all these controls stop, therefore, trouble in the
sensor is suspected. The vehicle speed sensor is also in use for operation of the speedometer and for theother electronics controlled systems for the engine, automatic transaxle, etc.
“4. The sensor associated with anti-squat control is the throttle position sensor. The sensor is also used for
control of the engine and automatic transaxle. If the sensor fails, therefore, the check engine light in the
combination meter will light, and engine self-diagnosis code No. 14 will be output. In a situation whereanti-squat control only stops, therefore, if the check engine light does not light, defective wiring is
suspected between the ECS control unit and throttle position sensor.

SERVICE BRAKES -Anti-lock Braking System Troubleshooting35-7
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM TROUBLESHOOTlilGPARTICULAR PHENOMENA OF THE
LANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEMModels equipped with the anti-lock braking system
(ABS) may exhibit one or more of the following
phenomena from time to time, but none of these
are abnormal.
(1) A pulsing feeling in the brake pedal, or vibration
of the body or the steering wheel, when the
anti-lock braking system is activated by sudden
braking or by braking on a slippery road surface.
.9ctually, this phenomenon is an indication that
the anti-lock braking system is functioning nor-
mally.(2) When the vehicle speed reaches approximately
6 km/h (4 mph) after the engine is started and
the vehicle starts off (for the first time), a
whining motor noise may be heard from the
engine compartment if the vehicle is traveling in
a quiet place, but this noise is simply the result
of a self-check being made of the anti-lock
braking system operation.
TROUBLESHOOTING METHODSProblems related to the anti-lock braking system
(ABS) can be classified into two general categories:
problems in the electrical system and those in the
Lhydraulic system.For problems in the electrical system, the
self-diagnosis function is built into the electronic control
unit (E.C.U.) causing the ABS warning light to
illuminate as a warning to the driver. In this instance,
checks can be made by using the multi-use tester
and oscilloscope.
Problems in the hydraulic system (poor braking,
etc.) can be located in the same way as for ordinary
brakes. There is, however, the necessity to check to
determine whether the problem is related to ordin-
ary brake components or to the components related
to the ABS. To make this check, use the multi-use
tester.
HOW TO USE THE TROUBLESHOOTING
FLOW CHART(1) Using the flow chart, check the ABS warning
light light-up sequence. Read the diagnosis
codes and check the condition of braking opera-
tion.
(2) Following the check chart listed in the remedy
column, perform the checks. There are [Explana-
tion] and [Hint] in each check chart. Refer to
them when troubleshooting.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
BRAKE PEDAL INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
1.Measure the brake pedal height as illustrated. If the’brakepedal height is not within the standard value, adjust as
follows.
Standard value (A): 177
- 182 mm (7.0 - 7.2 in.)
(I) Disconnect the stop light switch connector, loosen the
lock nut, and move the stop light switch to a position
where it does not contact the brake pedal arm.
(2) Adjust the brake pedal height by turning the operating
rod with pliers (with the operating. rod lock nut
loosened), until the correct brake pedal height is
obtained.
(3) After screwing in the stop light switch until it contacts
the brake pedal stopper (just before the brake pedal is
caused to move), return the stop light switch
l/2 to 1
turn and secure by tightening the lock nut.
(4) Connect the connector of the stop light switch.
(5) Check to be sure that the stop light is not illuminated
with the brake pedal unpressed.
Reference value (6): 0.5
- 1.0 mm (.02 - .04 in.)
2. On vehicles with automatic transaxle, check the shift-lock
mechanism. (Refer to GROUP 23
- Transaxle Control.)
3. With the engine stopped, depress the brake pedal two or
three times. After eliminating the vacuum in the power
brake booster, press the pedal down by hand, and confirm
that the amount of movement before resistance is met (the
free play) is within the standard value range.
Standard value (C): 3
- 8 mm (.I - .3 in.)
If the free play is less than the standard value, confirm that
the clearance between the stop light switch and brake
pedal is within the standard value.
If the free play exceeds the standard value, it is probably
due to excessive play between the clevis pin and brake
pedal arm. Check for excessive clearance and replace faulty
parts as required.
4.Start the engine, depress the brake pedal with approximate-
ly 500 N (110
Ibs.) of force, and measure the clearance
between the brake pedal and the floorboard.
Standard value (D): 80 mm (3.1 in.) or more
If the clearance is less than the standard value, check for air
trapped in the brake line and for brake fluid leaks. If
necessary, check the brake system mechanism (excessive
shoe clearance due to faulty auto adjuster) and repair faulty
parts as required.~1~1
