CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • The electric parking brake may still operate up to 20 seconds after the ignition switch is turned off. Before disconnecting connectors or fuses, turn the ignition switch off and wait 20 seconds or more.

  • When replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), operate the electric parking brake switch (electric parking brake switch assembly) as the parking brake indicator light blinks (red) when the ignition switch is first turned to ON.

PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING GTS (PERMISSION OF RH INTERLOCKING PKB LOCK / PERMISSION OF LH INTERLOCKING PKB LOCK)


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    4. Turn the GTS on.

    5. Enter the following menus: Chassis / Electric Parking Brake / Data List.

    6. Read the Data List according to the display on the GTS.
