ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM TEST MODE PROCEDURE

WARNING LIGHT AND INDICATOR LIGHT INITIAL CHECK

Release the parking brake.

Note

Before releasing the parking brake, move the shift lever to P for safety.

Tech Tips

When the brake fluid level is low, the brake warning light / red (malfunction) comes on.

When the power switch is turned on (IG), check that the ABS warning, brake warning / red (malfunction), brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction), slip indicator, brake hold standby indicator and brake hold operated indicator lights come on until the power switch is turned on (READY).

Tech Tips

When the power switch is turned on (IG), the VSC OFF indicator light comes on for approximately 3 seconds.
If the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) stores any DTCs, the ABS warning, brake warning / red (malfunction), brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction) and slip indicator lights will come on. Also, in this state, if the vehicle is under the following conditions and the brake hold switch (integration control and panel assembly) is turned on, the brake hold operated indicator light blinks.

Vehicle Conditions:

The driver's door is closed.
Driver's seat belt is fastened.
The engine hood is closed.
The back door is closed.

If any of the indicators remains on or does not come on, proceed to troubleshooting for the light circuits listed below.

SENSOR CHECK USING TEST MODE (SIGNAL CHECK) (When Using the GTS)

Note

Before performing the master cylinder pressure sensor check, perform linear valve offset learning.

Tech Tips

If the power switch is turned from on (IG) to on (ACC) or off during Test Mode (signal check), DTCs recorded during the sensor check will be cleared.
During Test Mode (signal check), the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) records all DTCs detected in the sensor check. By performing Test Mode (signal check), the codes are cleared as the normal condition for each item is confirmed. The remaining codes are the codes where an abnormality was found.
Even during Test Mode, if there is a system malfunction that causes brake hold control to be prohibited, when the vehicle is under the following conditions and the brake hold switch (integration control and panel assembly) is turned on, the brake hold operated indicator light blinks.

Vehicle Conditions:

The driver's door is closed.
Driver's seat belt is fastened.
The engine hood is closed.
The back door is closed.

Procedure to Enter Test Mode
1. Turn the power switch on (IG).
2. Check that the steering wheel is centered.
3. Check that the parking brake is released.
4. Check that the shift lever is in P.
5. Turn the power switch off.
6. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

  - The ABS warning light comes on immediately if a malfunction is detected during the speed sensor check.
2. Stop the vehicle.
  Note
  - The speed sensor check may not complete if the speed sensor check is started while turning the steering wheel or spinning the wheels.
  - After the ABS warning light goes off, if vehicle speed exceeds 80 km/h (50 mph), a sensor check code will be stored again. Decelerate or stop the vehicle before the speed reaches 80 km/h (50 mph).
  - If the sensor check has not completed, the ABS warning light will blink while the vehicle is being driven and the ABS will not operate.
VSC OFF Switch (Integration Control and Panel Assembly) Check
1. When Test Mode is activated, check that the VSC OFF indicator light in the combination meter assembly is turned off.

  Note
  
  When the acceleration sensor, speed sensor and master cylinder pressure sensor checks complete, the sensor check is complete.
  
  If the sensor checks have not completed, the ABS warning light will keep blinking while the vehicle is being driven, and the ABS will not operate.
Reading Sensor Check DTCs
1. Read the DTCs by following the GTS screen.
  Note
  - If only DTCs other than Test Mode sensor check DTCs are output, repair the malfunction and clear the DTCs.
  - If Test Mode sensor check DTCs and other DTCs are output or if only Test Mode sensor check DTCs are output, repair the malfunction, clear the DTCs, and perform the Test Mode inspection again.

  SST
  
  09843-18040
2. Count the number of blinks of the ABS warning, brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction) and slip indicator lights.
  Tech Tips
  - How to read DTCs:
    
    Diagnostic trouble codes are represented by the number of blinks of a warning light. For example, code 21 would be shown by 2 blinks, a pause of 1.5 seconds, and then 1 blink.
  - If one code is detected:
    
    The light repeats the same code after a pause of 4 seconds.
  - If multiple codes are detected:
    
    The light outputs one code after another with a 2.5-second pause between each code. When all codes have been output, there is a 4-second pause and then the light begins to output the codes again.
  Note
  - If only DTCs other than Test Mode sensor check DTCs are displayed, repair the malfunctions and clear the DTCs.
  - If Test Mode sensor check DTCs and other DTCs are displayed or if only Test Mode sensor check DTCs are displayed, repair the malfunctions, clear the DTCs, and perform the Test Mode inspection again.
  Tech Tips
  - If more than 1 malfunction is detected at the same time, the lowest numbered code will be displayed first.
  - See Sensor Check DTCs.
3. After performing the check, disconnect SST from terminals TS and CG, and TC and CG of the DLC3 and turn the power switch off.
  Tech Tips
  - If the power switch is not turned off and back on (IG) after SST is removed from the DLC3, the previous Test Mode will continue.
  - If the power switch is turned back on (IG) with terminals TS and CG connected, the previous Test Mode will continue.
