CONSULT- II Functions (ABS)NFS00023
CONSULT-III MAIN FUNCTION
CONSULT-III can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test modes shown following.
Self-DiagnosisNFS000HD
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Before performing the self-diagnosis, start engine and drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for
approximately 1 minute.
HOW TO ERASE SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULTS
1. After erasing DTC memory, start engine and drive vehicle at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately
1 minute as the final inspection, and make sure that the ABS warning lamp and brake warning lamp turn
OFF.
CAUTION:
If memory cannot be erased, perform applicably diagnosis.

When the wheel sensor malfunctions, after inspecting the wheel sensor system, the ABS warning lamp
and brake warning lamp will not turn OFF even when the system is normal unless the vehicle is driving
at approximately 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately 1 minute.

Brake warning lamp will turn ON in case of parking brake operation (when switch is ON) or of brake
fluid level switch operation (when brake fluid is insufficient).
Diagnostic test mode Function Reference
SELF-DIAG RESULTS Self-diagnostic results can be read and erased quickly.BRC-19, "

DATA MONITORInput/Output data in the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) can be
read.BRC-21, "Data Monitor"
CAN DIAG SUPPORT
MNTRThe results of transmit/receive diagnosis of communication can be read.LAN-44, "CAN Diagnostic

ACTIVE TESTDiagnostic Test Mode in which CONSULT-III drives some actuators apart
from the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) and also shifts some
parameters in a specified range.BRC-22, "Active Test"
FUNCTION TESTConducted by CONSULT-III instead of a technician to determine whether
each system is “OK” or “NG”.—

Note 1: After completing repairs of the shorted sensor circuit, when ignition switch is turned ON, ABS warning lamp turns on. Check that
ABS warning lamp turns off while driving the vehicle at approximately 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approximately 1 minute according
to self-diagnosis procedure. In addition, if wheel sensor 2 is displayed for the wheels, check the wheel sensor circuit and also check the
control unit power voltage.
Note 2: When errors are detected in several systems, including the CAN communication system [U1000], troubleshoot the CAN commu-
nication system.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR SYMPTOMS
Revision: 2006 November2007 350Z
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR SYMPTOMSPFP:00007
Excessive ABS Function Operation FrequencyNFS0002E
1. CHECK START
Check brake force distribution.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Check brake system.
2. CHECK FRONT AND REAR AXLE
Make sure there is no excessive play in the front and rear axles.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Repair.
3. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR
Wheel Sensor Inspection

Wheel sensor mount and damage inspection

Sensor rotor mount and damage inspection

Wheel sensor connector connection inspection

Wheel sensor harness inspection
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4.
NG >>

Replace wheel sensor or sensor rotor.

Repair harness.
4. CHECK ABS WARNING LAMP DISPLAY
Make sure warning lamp turns off approximately 1 second after the ignition switch is turned on or when driv-
ing.
OK or NG
OK >> Normal
NG >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-19, "
OPERATION PROCEDURE" .
Unexpected Pedal ReactionNFS0002F

ing.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR in BRC-32, "Excessive ABS Func-
tion Operation Frequency" .
NG >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-19, "
OPERATION PROCEDURE" .

CAUTION:
Under the following conditions, when brake pedal is lightly depressed (just place a foot on it), ABS is
activated and vibration is felt. However, this is normal.

When shifting gears

When driving on slippery road

YES >> Check if there is a radio, antenna, antenna lead wire, or wiring close to the control unit (or its wir-
ing), and if there is, move it farther away.
NO >> GO TO 3. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR AND SENSOR ROTOR in BRC-32, "
Excessive ABS Func-
tion Operation Frequency" .
