ABS General Information
The ABS consists of wheel speed sensors, stop light switch, hydraulic unit and the ABS-ECU. If
a problem occurs in the system, the malfunctioning
system can be identified by means of the diagnostic
function.
The diagnostic trouble code will not be erased even
if the ignition switch is turned to OFF.
In addition, reading of diagnostic trouble codes,
service testing are possible using

System check sound When starting the engine, a thudd
ing sound can sometimes be heard coming from inside.the engine compartment, but this is because the system operatioh check is being
performed. This is considered normal.
ABS operation sound
ABS operation (Long braking distance)1.Sound of the motor inside the ABS hydraulic unit. o perating (whine),
2. Sound is generated along with vibration of the b rake’ pedal.
3.When ABS operates, sound is generated from the vehi cle chassis due
brake application and release.
(Thump: suspension; squeak: tires)
For road surfaces such as snow-covered roads and gravel roads, the braking distance forvehicles with ABS can sometimes be longer than that for other vehicles. Accordingly,
advise the customer to drive safely on such roads by lowering the vehicle speed and not
being overconfident.
Diagnosis detection condition depends on the diagno stic trouble code.
Make sure that checking requirements listed in the “Comment” are satisfied when checking the trouble
symptom again after the diagnostic trouble code has been erased.

1. Momentary interruptions within approximately 100 ms are not detected.
2. To inspect the twisted pair wires in the wheel s peed sensor, check if there is
cables, and flex the cables to check for any open c ircuits.
