CABS warning light does not illuminate when the ignition key is in the “START” position.
[Explanation]
LJThe 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 offand 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.

the following diagnosis codes are displayed “11 FR SNSR. OPEN”
“12 FL SNSR. OPEN” “13 RR SNSR. OPEN” “14 RL SNSR. OPEN”
[Explanation]
The ABS ECU detects breaks in the wheel speed
sensor wire. This trouble code is output if the wheel
speed sensor signal is not input (or short circuited)
or if its output is low when starting to drive or while
driving.[Hint]
In addition to a broken wire/short circuit in the wheel
speed sensor, also check whether the sensor gap is
too large, sensor harness wire is broken, or sensor
harness and body connector are not properly
con-
netted.
r--~- -E-2 When dlagnosls code“15 VEH. SPD. SNSR.” is displayedI[Explanation]
This trouble code is output when there is an
abnormality (other than broken wire or short circuit)
in any of the wheel speed sensor output signals
while driving.
[Hint]
The following can be considered as the cause of the
wheel speed sensor output abnormality.
l Distortion of rotor, teeth missing
lLow frequency noise interference when sensor
harness wire is broken
l Noise interference in sensor signal
lSensor output signal is below the standard value
or amplitude modulation is over the standard
value. Using an oscilloscope to measure the
wave shape of the wheel speed sensor output
signal is very effective.l Broken sensor harness
l Poor connection of connector
NOTE(1) If contact is poor, check the sensor cable by
bending and lightly stretching it.
(2) Except for the case where a fault condition
exists in the system, but the inspection results
are normal; if an abnormality cannot be found in
the sensor circuit displayed as abnormal, erase
the diagnosis code and turn the ignition switch
to OFF once, and then test-drive again.
If the same trouble code is output, replace the
ABS ECU. If the trouble does not occur
any-more, the problem is likely to be with the ABS
ECU.(If the trouble is in the speed sensor circuit, but
is difficult to recreate, it will recur even after the
ABS ECU has been replaced.)

lStop light switch may remain on for more than
15 minutes without ABS operation.
lThe harness wire for the stop light switch may

!LiIf the stop light operates normal, the harness for the
stop light switch input circuit is broken or there is a
malfunction in the ABS ECU.

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).
