DABS warning light blinks once after the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position. It
illuminates in the “START” position and blinks once again when turned to the “ON” position.*-_

E-2Output abnormality of wheel speed sensor
[Explanation]The warning light lights up when there is an
abnormality (other than broken wire or short circuit)
in the wheel speed sensor output signal while
driving.
[Hinti
The following can be considered as the cause of thewheel 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 signall When the sensor output signal is below the
standard value or when amplitude modulation is
over the standard value, using an oscilloscope tomeasure the wave shape of the wheel speed
sensor output signal is very effective.
l Loose wheel bearing
l Temporarily broken wire in sensor harness
l Sensor harness and body connector are not
properly inserted.
NOTE
If contact is poor, check the sensor cable by bendingand lightly stretching it.

IFLAT BATTERY REMEDYNOWOAF
When booster cables are used to start the engine when the
battery is completely flat and then the vehicle is immediately
driven without waiting for the battery to recharge itself to some
extent, the engine may misfire, and driving might not be
possible. This happens because ABS consumes a great
amount of current for its self-check function; the remedy is to
either allow the battery to recharge sufficiently, or to discon-
nect the connector for ABS circuit, thus disabling ABS.
The ABS warning light will illuminate when the connector (for
ABS) is disconnected.
After the battery has sufficiently charged, connect the connec-
tor (for
ABS) and restart the engine; then check to be sure the
ABS warning light is not illuminated.
