Abs Function Test

  1. Turn ignition to LOCK position. Raise and support vehicle. Install Tech 1 with Mass Storage Cartridge (MSC). Turn ignition on. Place transaxle in Neutral position. Select a channel to test left front, right front or rear.
  2. Firmly depress brake pedal. Pedal should remain high and firm. Have an assistant attempt to rotate wheel being tested. If wheel does not rotate, base brake apply is functioning properly.
  3. With brake pedal still depressed, press UP arrow button on scan tester to begin test. Tech 1 will display RELEASE and assistant should be able to rotate wheel for about 2 seconds. Brake pedal should remain high and firm. If brake pedal height drops, ensure solenoid harness connectors are connected to correct solenoid.
