TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

Basic InspectionBFS000E7
BRAKE FLUID LEVEL, LEAKAGE AND BRAKE PAD
1. Check fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir tank. Refill the brake fluid if fluid level is low.
2. Check the area around the brake piping and actuator for leakage. If leakage or oozing is detected, check
as follows:

If ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connections are loose, tighten connections to the speci-
fied torque. Check again for leakage, and make sure that there is no fluid leakage.

If the flare nuts at the connections and the threads of the actuator are damaged, replace the damaged
parts. Then check again for leakage, and make sure that there is no fluid leak.

If leakage or oozing is detected on parts other than actuator connections, wipe with a clean cloth and
check again. If there is still leakage or oozing, replace the damaged part.

If leakage or oozing is detected on actuator body, wipe with a clean cloth and check again. If there is
still leakage or oozing, replace ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
CAUTION:
ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) cannot be disassembled.
3. Check brake pad for wear. Refer to BR-26, "
PAD WEAR INSPECTION" , “FRONT DISC BRAKE”, BR-33,
"PAD WEAR INSPECTION" , “REAR DISC BRAKE”.
POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT TERMINAL LOOSENESS AND BATTERY
Check battery for looseness on the battery positive/negative terminal and ground connection. Also make sure
that battery voltage does not drop.
INSPECTION OF ABS WARNING LAMP, BRAKE WARNING LAMP, VDC OFF INDICATOR LAMP,
AND SLIP INDICATOR LAMP
×: ON –: OFF
Note 1: Turns off after engine start
Note 2: The brake warning lamp turns on during parking brake operation (when switch is on) and brake fluid level sensor operation
(insufficient brake fluid).
1. Make sure that when the ignition switch is turned ON, the ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp
(when VDC OFF switch is off), and SLIP indicator lamp turn on for approximately 1 second, and that the
brake warning lamp turns on. If they do not turn on, perform CAN communication system diagnosis. Refer
to BRC-81, "
CAN Communication System" . Be sure to check VDC OFF switch before checking VDC OFF
indicator lamp. Refer to BRC-81, "
VDC OFF SWITCH" . Check combination meter if there is no malfunc-
tion in CAN communication system and VDC OFF switch. Refer to DI-4, "
COMBINATION METERS" .
2. Check if the ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, and SLIP indicator lamp turn off approximately
1 second after the ignition switch is turned ON, and if the brake warning lamp turns off after the engine is
started. If they do not turn off, perform self-diagnosis.

REMOVAL
1. Disconnect ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector.
2. Loosen brake tube flare nuts, then remove brake tubes from ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
3. Remove ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) mounting nuts.
4. Remove ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) from vehicle.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following when removing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).

If the part number on the part number label (pasted on actuator upper surface) is the same, ABS
actuator and electric unit (control unit) cannot be used on another vehicle.
If it is used on another vehicle, ABS warning lamp, SLIP indicator lamp and VDC OFF indicator
lamp may turn ON or VDC/TCS/ABS may not operate normally.
When replacing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), must use new service parts.

Before servicing, disconnect battery cables.

To remove brake tube, use a flare nut torque wrench to prevent flare nuts and brake tube from
being damaged. To install, use a flare nut torque wrench (commercial service tool) and tighten
with the specified torque.

Do not apply excessive impact to actuator, such as dropping it.

Do not remove and install ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) by holding harness.
INSTALLATION
Install is in the reverse order of the removal.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following when installing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).

Tighten the mounting bolts and nuts with the specified torque.

After the work, bleed air from brake piping. Refer to BR-10, "Bleeding Brake System" .

After installing body harness connector in the actuator, make sure connector is securely locked

When replacing ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), calibrate Steering angle sensor neu-
tral position. Refer to BRC-40, "
Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .

CVT SYSTEM

TCM FunctionBCS001G2
The function of the TCM is to:

Receive input signals sent from various switches and sensors.

Determine required line pressure, shifting point, and lock-up operation.

Send required output signals to the step motor and the respective solenoids.
CONTROL SYSTEM OUTLINE
The CVT senses vehicle operating conditions through various sensors. It always controls the optimum shift
position and reduces shifting and lock-up shocks.

Line Pressure and Secondary Pressure ControlBCS001G5

When an input torque signal equivalent to the engine drive force is sent from the ECM to the TCM, the
TCM controls the line pressure solenoid valve and secondary pressure solenoid valve.

This line pressure solenoid controls the pressure regulator valve as the signal pressure and adjusts the
pressure of the operating oil discharged from the oil pump to the line pressure most appropriate to the
driving state. Secondary pressure is controlled by decreasing line pressure.
NORMAL CONTROL
Optimize the line pressure and secondary pressure, depending on driving conditions, on the basis of the throt-
tle position, the engine speed, the primary pulley (input) revolution speed, the secondary pulley (output) revo-
lution speed, the brake signal, the PNP switch signal, the lock-up signal, the voltage, the target gear ratio, the
fluid temperature, and the fluid pressure.
FEEDBACK CONTROL
When controlling the normal fluid pressure or the selected fluid pressure, the secondary pressure can be set
more accurately by using the fluid pressure sensor to detect the secondary pressure and controlling the feed-
back.
Shift ControlBCS001G6
In order to select the gear ratio which can obtain the driving force in accordance with driver's intention and the
vehicle condition, TCM monitors the driving conditions, such as the vehicle speed and the throttle position and
selects the optimum gear ratio, and determines the gear change steps to the gear ratio. Then send the com-
mand to the step motor, and control the flow-in/flow-out of line pressure from the primary pulley to determine
the position of the moving-pulley and control the gear ratio.
