Inspection
1. Check control lever for wear or other damage. Replace if
necessary.
2. Check wires for discontinuity or deterioration. Replace if nec-
essary.
3. Check warning lamp and switch. Replace if necessary.
4. Check parts at each connecting portion and, if found

1. Adjust clearance between shoe and drum or pad and rotor
as follows:
a. Release parking brake lever and loosen adjusting nut.
b. Depress brake pedal fully at least 10 times with engine run-
ning.

203.5 mm (8.01 in). At6-8notches, adjust the parking brake
cable by turning the adjusting nut.
3. Pull control lever with the specified amount of force. Check
lever stroke and ensure smooth operation.

PARKING BRAKE CONTROL
BR-49

Purpose
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) consists of electronic and hydraulic components. It allows for control of
braking force so that locking of the wheels can be avoided.
The ABS:
1) Provides improved steering control during braking (by preventing front wheel lock).
2) Provides improved vehicle stability and skid prevention during braking (by avoiding rear wheel lock).
Operation
lWhen the vehicle speed is less than 10 km/h (6 mph) this system does not work.
lThe Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) has self-test capabilities. The system turns on the ABS warning light
for 1 second after turning the ignition switch to the ªONº position. The system performs another test the
first time the vehicle reaches 6 km/h (4 mph). A mechanical noise may be heard as the ABS performs
a self-test. This is a normal part of the self-test feature. If a malfunction is found during this check, the
ABS warning light will come on.
lDuring ABS operation, a mechanical noise may be heard. This is a normal operating condition.

System Components
System Description
SENSOR
The sensor unit consists of a gear-shaped sensor rotor and an
electro-magnetic proximity detector. The proximity detector
(ªpick-upº) contains a bar magnet around which a coil is wound.
The detector is installed on the back side of the brake rotor. An
alternating voltage is generated in the coil of the proximity detec-
tor as each tooth of the rotor cuts the magnetic field of the
detector core. The frequency and amplitude of the voltage
increases in proportion to the rotational speed of the rotor.
CONTROL UNIT
The control unit determines the wheel rotating speed from the
signal sent from the sensor, a corresponding control signal is
then output from the control unit in the form of a DC current to
the actuator solenoid valve. The ABS control unit also controls
ON-OFF operation of the valve relay and motor relay. If any
electrical malfunction should be detected in the system, the con-
trol unit causes the warning lamp to light up. In this condition, the
ABS will be deactivated by the control unit, and the vehicle's
brake system reverts to normal operation.

Self-diagnosis (Only models with data link
connector terminal No. 8)
FUNCTION
lWhen a problem occurs in the ABS, the warning lamp on the
instrument panel comes on. To start the self-diagnostic
results mode, ground the self-diagnostic (check) terminal
located on ªData Link Connector for CONSULT-IIº. The loca-
tion of the malfunction is indicated by the warning lamp flash-
ing.
SELF-DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
Drive vehicle over 30 km/h (19 mph) for at
least one minute.
Turn ignition switch to the ªLOCKº position.
Ground terminal ª8º of ªDATA LINK CON-
NECTOR for CONSULT-IIº with a suitable
harness.
Turn ignition switch to ªONº position while
grounding terminal ª8º.
Do not depress brake pedal.
After 3.0 seconds, the warning lamp starts
flashing to indicate the malfunction code
No. (See NOTE.)
Verify the location of the malfunction with
the malfunction code chart. Refer to BR-69.
Then make the necessary repairs following
the diagnostic procedures.
After the malfunctions are repaired, erase
the malfunction codes stored in the control
unit. Refer to BR-68.
Rerun the self-diagnostic results mode to
verify that the malfunction codes have been
erased.
NOTE: The indication ter-
minates after five
minutes.
However, when the
ignition switch is
turned from off to
on, the indication
starts flashing
again. Disconnect the check terminal from the
ground. The self-diagnostic results mode is
now complete.
