TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR SYMPTOMS

ABS Function Does Not OperateBFS000EN
CAUTION:
ABS does not operate when speed is 10 km/h (6 MPH) or lower.
1. CHECK ABS WARNING LAMP DISPLAY
Make sure that the warning lamp turns off approximately 2 second after the ignition switch is turned on or
when driving.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3. Check Wheel Sensor and Sensor Rotor. Refer to BRC-82, "Excessive ABS Function
Operation Frequently" .
NG >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-58, "
Self-Diagnosis" .
Pedal Vibration and ABS Operation Sound OccursBFS000EO
CAUTION:
Under the following conditions, ABS is activated and vibration is felt when brake pedal is lightly
depressed (just place a foot on it). However, this is normal.

When shifting gears

When driving on slippery road

During cornering at high speed

When passing over bumps or grooves [at approximately 50 mm (1.97 in) or more]

When pulling away just after starting engine [at approximately 10 km/h (6 MPH) or more]
1. SYMPTOM CHECK 1
Check if there is pedal vibration and operation sound when the engine is started.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to BRC-58, "
Self-Diagnosis" .
2. SYMPTOM CHECK 2
Check symptoms when electrical component (headlamps, etc.) switches are operated.
Do symptoms occur?
YES >> Check if there is a radio, antenna, antenna lead wire, or wiring close to the control unit. If there is,
move it farther away.
NO >> GO TO 3. Check Wheel Sensor and Sensor Rotor. Refer to BRC-82, "
Excessive ABS Function
Operation Frequently" .

FRONT WHEEL HUB AND KNUCKLEPFP:40202
On-Vehicle Inspection BDS0007K
Make sure that the mounting conditions (looseness, backlash) of each component and component conditions
(wear, damage) are normal.
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION

Move wheel hub and bearing assembly in the axial direction by hand. Make sure there is no looseness of
wheel bearing.

Rotate wheel hub and make sure that is no unusual noise or other irregular conditions. If there is any of
irregular conditions, replace wheel hub and bearing assembly

INSTALLATION

Installation is the reverse order of the removal. For tightening torque, refer to FAX-5, "COMPONENT" .
NOTE:
Do not reuse non-reusable parts.

When installing transverse link ball joint, fix bolt to avoid rotation, and then tighten the nut.

Perform the final tightening of each of parts under unladen conditions, which were removed when remov-
ing wheel hub and bearing assembly and steering knuckle. Check the wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-5,
"Wheel Alignment Inspection" .

Adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor after checking the wheel alignment for the models with
VDC. Refer to BRC-40, "
Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .

Check wheel sensor harness for proper connection. Refer to BRC-33, "WHEEL SENSORS" .

Assembly disc rotor and wheel hub and bearing assembly by
aligning each matching mark as shown in the figure when install-
ing disc rotor.
NOTE:
Refer to BR-26, "
FRONT DISC BRAKE" for assembly when
removing disc rotor without matching mark.

5. Remove cotter pin, then loosen hub lock nut.
6. Separate wheel hub and bearing assembly from drive shaft by
lightly tapping the end with hammer (suitable tool) and a wood
block, and then remove hub lock nut.
CAUTION:

Do not place drive shaft joint at an extreme angle. Also be
careful not to overextend slide joint.

Do not allow drive shaft to hang down without support for
housing (or joint sub-assembly), shaft and the other
parts.
NOTE:
Use a puller (suitable tool) if wheel hub and drive shaft cannot
be separated even after performing the above procedure.

9. Remove boot bands, and then remove boot from joint sub-
assembly.
10. Screw a drive shaft puller (suitable tool) into joint sub-assembly
screw part to a length of 30 mm (1.18 in) or more. Support drive
shaft with one hand and pull out joint sub-assembly with a slid-
ing hammer (suitable tool) from shaft.
CAUTION:

Align a sliding hammer and drive shaft and remove them
by pulling firmly and uniformly.

If joint sub-assembly cannot be pulled out, try after
