ABS <2WD> ± Troubleshooting35B-11
Code No. 51 Valve relayProbable cause
When the ignition switch is turned to ON, the ABS-ECU switches the valve relay
off and on during the initial check. In that way, the ABS-ECU compares the signals
sent to the valve relay with the voltage in the valve power monitor line. That is how
to check if the valve relay is operating normally. The ABS-ECU always checks if
current flows in the valve power monitor line, too. It determines that there is an open
circuit when no current flows. If no current flows in the valve power monitor line,
this diagnosis code is output.
Malfunction of valve relay

Malfunction of wiring harness or connector

Malfunction of ABS-ECU

Malfunction of hydraulic unit
NOTE
Whenever reading the diagnosis codes using the ABS warning lamp (Refer to GROUP 00 ± How to
Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points), this diagnosis code will be output. That is not a malfunction
but because the valve relay connector is disconnected. After repairing all other malfunctions, connect
the valve relay connector again to check the valve relay. Then check that the ABS warning lamp does
not illuminate. If it illuminates, the valve relay may be defective. So carry out the following procedure.
Valve relay check. (Refer to P. 35B-28.)NGReplace the valve relay.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE FOR TROUBLE SYMPTOMS
Inspection Procedure 1
Communication with MUT-II is impossible.
(Communication with all systems is impossible.)
Probable cause
The cause is probably a defective power supply system (including earth) for the
diagnosis line.
Malfunction of connector

Malfunction of harness wire
Refer to GROUP 13A ± Troubleshoot-
ing.
Inspection Procedure 2
Communication with MUT-II is impossible. (Communica-
tion with the one-shot pulse input signal only is
impossible.)
Probable cause
The cause is probably a defective one-shot pulse input circuit system of the diagnosis
line.
Malfunction of connector

Malfunction of harness wire

Malfunction of ETACS-ECU

Inspection Procedure 3
The ignition switch is turned to the OFF position and the
driver's side door is opened while the tail lamps or
headlamps are operating, but the light reminder warning
buzzer does not sound.
Probable cause
The cause is probably a defective lighting switch input circuit system or a defective
driver's side door switch input circuit system.

A-8 Noise sometimes appears on FM during travelling.
Does the problem clear up when retuned?Ye sOK
No
Does the problem appear only in certain locations and only with
certain stations?Ye sDue to electrical field conditions. (Multipath noise*, fading noise*).
Are connectors properly connected?NoCheck connector connections.
Ye s
Does noise appear when the radio switch is turned on while the
vehicle is stopped and the radio is struck while tuned away from
a station?NoStatic electricity noise:
Body static electric from the shock absorber rubber bushings used
to prevent vibration, tyres, etc. occurs because of separation from
the earth, causing a buzzing noise. Since no measures can be
taken on the radio side, other steps should be taken to discharge
the static electricity of the vehicle body.
Ye s
Is the radio body correctly earthed? (Is the mounting screw tightened
securely?)NoTighten the screw securely.
Ye s
Is the antenna correctly earthed? (If noise appears when the antenna
is moved, this means the earth is not securely connected.)NoIf rust is present at the antenna earth screw, clean and tighten
the earth securely.
Ye s
Repair or replace radio.
No
* About multipath noise and fading noise
Because the frequency of FM waves is
extremely high, it is highly susceptible to effects
from geological formations and buildings.
These effects disrupt the broadcast signal and
obstruct reception in several ways.

Multipath noise
This describes the echo that occurs when
the broadcast signal is reflected by a largeobstruction and enters the receiver with
a slight time delay relative to the direct
signal (repetitious buzzing).

Fading noise
This is a buzzing noise that occurs when
the broadcast beam is disrupted by
obstructing objects and the signal strength
fluctuates intricately within a narrow range.

Exit conditions from the adjustment mode
The ETACS-ECU cancels the adjustment mode when any of the following conditions is satisfied:
•
Diagnosis control: OFF (Disconnect the MUT-II>)
•
Key reminder switch: ON (Pull out the ignition key.)
•
Ignition switch: Other than LOCK (OFF)
•
Door switch: ON (Open the door)
•
After the ETACS_ECU has entered the adjustment mode, no adjustment is made within 3 minutes (If
any adjustment is made within 3 minutes, the ETACS-ECU monitors an adjustment operation for
other 3 minutes.
•
Other warning buzzer(s) sounds

Adjustment of functions
Function Adjustment procedure
Keyless entry answerback function When the transmitter lock switch is turned on twice continuously
within 2 seconds, the lock answerback function toggles on and off.
•
If the function toggles on, the buzzer sounds once (default con-
dition).
•
If the function toggles off, the buzzer sounds twice,
When the transmitter unlock switch is turned on twice continuously
within 2 seconds, the unlock answerback function toggles on and
off.
•
If the function toggles on, the buzzer sounds once (default con-
dition).
•
If the function toggles off, the buzzer sounds twice,
Initialisation of all the ETACS func-
tions (From deactivation to activa-
tion)When the tailgate switch remains on for more than 20 seconds, th
buzzer sounds twice and he answer-back function of the keyless
entry system is initialised.
The buzzer will sound in 10 seconds (indicating that the ETACS-
ECU enters the adjustment mode), but the washer switch must re-
mains off for 20 seconds in order to initialise all the functions.
If the tailgate switch remains on for more than 20 seconds without
entering the adjustment mode, the system enters the adjustment
mode in 10 seconds, but does not initialise all of the functions.
