Inspection steps

CAUTION: When the brake actuator ECM has been replaced, make sure to perform [VSC(VDC) Centering Mode]. (Refer to WORK SUPPORT )
  1. Data monitor check (wheel speed)
    1. Using SSM4, check [Data monitor] of [Wheel speed] while driving straight at a speed of 10 km/h or more. (Refer to DATA MONITOR )
      RANGE DESCRIPTION

      Item name Description/display range Normal value Remarks
      [Wheel Speed FR] Indicates the front right wheel speed.
      Display range: 0 to 326.4km/h
      When stopping: 0km/h
      While driving at a stable speed: No large changes.
      -
      [Wheel Speed FL] Indicates the front left wheel speed.
      Display range: 0 to 326.4km/h
      When stopping: 0km/h
      While driving at a stable speed: No large changes.
      -

      Criteria: There is no big difference from the speed meter.

      OK: Go to next step

      NG: Go to Step  3.

  2. Diagnostic code list recheck
    1. Using SSM4, clear the diagnostic code. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC CODES )
    2. Perform a driving test.
    3. Using SSM4 again, check the diagnostic code output. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC CODES )
      RESULT DESCRIPTION

      Result Go to
      Normal A
      Error code B
      1. Go to next step
      2. Go to Step 3.

      Malfunction reproduction test (Refer to MALFUNCTION SYMPTOMS AND DTC CHECK )

  3. Speed sensor installation condition check
    1. Check installation condition of the speed sensor.

      Criteria: Properly installed.

      OK: Go to next step

      NG: Properly install the speed sensor or replace it.

  4. Speed sensor check (foreign matter adhesion)
    1. Remove the speed sensor from the relevant wheel and check it for foreign matter adhesion or damage at the tip. (Refer to REMOVAL ) Criteria: There is no foreign particles or damage.
      CAUTION: If there is no damage in the speed sensor through this check, do not replace the speed sensor.

      OK: Go to next step

      NG: Clean or replace the speed sensor.

  5. Check wiring harness and connector (front speed sensor - brake actuator ASSY)
    1. Check the connector of the skid control computer (brake actuator ASSY) for a trouble such as poor engagement or disconnection.

      Criteria: No trouble

    2. Turn IG OFF and disconnect the connector A5 from the skid control computer (brake actuator ASSY).
    3. Disconnect the connector, A12 or A42 of the front speed sensor.
    4. Check the case and terminal of the connector for deformation and/or corrosion.

      Criteria: No deformation or corrosion.

    5. Measure the resistance between the terminals.

      Resistance

      STANDARD VALUE SPECIFICATION - RH

      Inspection terminals Inspection conditions Standard value
      A5-16(FR+) - A42-2(FR+) Always Less than 1 Ω
      A5-16(FR+) - chassis ground Always 10 k Ω or more
      A5-4(FR-) - A42-1(FR-) Always Less than 1 Ω
      A5-4(FR-) - chassis ground Always 10 k Ω or more
      STANDARD VALUE SPECIFICATION - LH

      Inspection terminals Inspection conditions Standard value

      A5-8(FL-) - A12-1(FL-) Always Less than 1 Ω
      A5-8(FL-) - chassis ground Always 10 k Ω or more

      OK: Go to next step

      NG: Repair or replacement of wiring harness or connector

  6. Skid control computer check (speed sensor power supply)
    CAUTION: Check voltage with front speed sensor connector connected and IG OFF→ON.
    1. Measure the voltage between the terminal and chassis ground.

      Voltage

      STANDARD VALUE SPECIFICATION - RH

      Inspection terminals Inspection conditions Standard value
      A42-2(FR+) - chassis ground IG ON 8 to 14V
      STANDARD VALUE SPECIFICATION - LH

      Inspection terminals Inspection conditions Standard value
      A12-2(FL+) - chassis ground IG ON 8 to 14V
