FREEZE FRAME DATA
Whenever an ABS DTC is detected, the skid control ECU stores the current vehicle (ECU or sensor) state as Freeze Frame Data.
The skid control ECU stores the number of times (maximum: 31) the ignition switch has been turned from off to ON since the last time the ABS was activated.
Tech Tips
However, if the vehicle is stopped or driven at a low speed (7 km/h (4.3 mph) or less), or if a DTC is detected, the skid control ECU will stop counting the number.
Freeze Frame Data at the time the ABS operates:
The skid control ECU stores and updates data whenever the ABS system operates.
When the ECU stores data at the time a DTC is detected, the data stored during ABS operation is cleared.
Freeze Frame Data at the time a DTC is detected:
When the skid control ECU stores data at the time a DTC is detected, no updates will be performed until the data is cleared.
CHECK FREEZE FRAME DATA
Turn the ignition switch off.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the intelligent tester on.
Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/ TRC / DTC.
Select a DTC to display its freeze frame data.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item/Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stop Light SW | Stop light switch / OFF or ON | OFF: Brake pedal released ON: Brake pedal depressed |
- |
| Operated System | Operated system status / no Sys, ABS, VSC(TRC), BA, HAB, FAIL SAFE, PBA, PB | Actual operated system | no Sys: No operation activated ABS: ABS activated VSC(TRC): VSC(TRC) activated BA: BA activated FAIL SAFE: Fail Safe mode activated HAB: HAB activated PBA: PBA activated PB: PB activated |
| Number of IG ON | Number of times ignition switch turned to ON after Freeze Frame Data stored / 0 to 31 | - | - |
| Vehicle Speed | Maximum wheel speed sensor reading / Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph), Max.: 326 km/h (202 mph) | Vehicle stopped: 0 km/h (0 mph) | When driving at constant speed: No large fluctuations |
| Vehicle Speed Grade | Vehicle speed grade / Min.: -1.86 G, Max.: 1.85 G | Vehicle stopped: 0 G | During driving: Changes in proportion with vehicle acceleration/deceleration |
