[ 22 1 STOP LAMPSW 1E-4
CHECK USING SELF DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
(1) With the ignition switch OFF, connect the MUT through the
adapter harness (MB991377). turn the ignition ON and
select the ABS system. (The ABS warning light lights up, it
goes into the MUT mode. In the MUT mode, ABS does
not function.)
If it does not go into the MUT mode, check the ECU power
circuit and the harness between the ECU and diagnosis
check terminals.
(2) Read the diagnosis output codes from the ECU memory.
(3) Clear the diagnosis codes once from memory. (Refer to
P.35-30.)If the memory cannot be cleared, the ECU is currently
detecting the trouble and the ABS ECU is in fail safe. If it
can be cleared, the trouble is either temporary or appears
only when driving.
(4) When the trouble codes cannot be cleared, or when the
ABS ECU goes into fail safe during another test drive and
trouble codes are output, check according to trouble code
check charts (E-l-E-7).

CABS warning light does not illuminate when the ignition key is in the “START” position.
[Explanation]
The ABS ECU uses the
IG2 power source which is
turned off in the “START” position. The ABS
warning light uses the
IG, power source which is
not turned off even in the “START” position.
Consequently, in the “START” position, power is off
LJand the ECU turns the valve relay OFF. If the
warning light does not illuminate at this time, there
is trouble in the warning light circuit on the valve
relay side.

to observe sensor output voltage waveform also under special conditions, such as rough road driving,

INSPECTION OF HYDRAULIC UNITINSPECTION BY FEEL
(I) Jack up the vehicle and support the vehicle with rigid racks
placed at the specified jack-up points.
(2) Release the parking brake and determine the drag force
(drag torque) of each wheel by feel.
LJ(3) Set the MUT through the adapter harness (MB991377) as
illustrated.
(4) After confirming that the shift lever or selector lever is in
the neutral position, start the engine.
The ABS warning light lights up, it goes into the MUT mode.
In the MUT mode, ABS does not function.
(5) Operate the MUT to force the actuator to operate (item No.
04, 05, 06).
(6) Turning the wheel manually, check the change of the
braking force when the brake pedal is depressed.
The change should be as shown in the following illustration.
NOTEWhile the ABS is in the fail safe mode, the MUT actuator
test cannot be made.

INSPECTION BY USING BRAKE FORCE TESTER
NOTE
(1) The brake force tester roller and tire must be dry during the
test.
(2) When testing the front brakes, apply the parking brake and
when testing the rear brakes, apply chocks to the front
wheels to lock them.
(I) Place the front or rear wheels on the brake force tester
roller.(2) Set the MUT through the adapter harness
(MB9913771 as
illustrated.
(3) After confirming that the shift lever or selector lever is in
the neutral position, start the engine.
(The ABS warning light lights up, it goes into the
-MUTmode. In the MUT mode, ABS does not function.)
(4) Operate the brake force tester roller.
(5) Depress the brake pedal until the brake force tester
indicates the following value and keep the brake force at
this level during the test.
Front wheels: 1,000 N (220
Ibs.)Rear wheels: 650 N (143
Ibs.)(6) Allow the brake tester indication to stabilize before operat-
ing the MUT to perform actuator test (Item No. 01,
02, 03).
Then, read change of tester indication.
Referring to the following “Judgement in Inspection by
Using Brake Force Tester” table, judge and take corrective
action if necessary.
NOTEWhile the ABS is in the fail safe mode, the MUT actuator
test cannot be made.
