      2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

      3. Observe the blinking pattern of the ABS warning, brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction), slip indicator and brake hold standby indicator lights in order to identify the DTC.

        Tech Tips

        If no code appears, inspect the TC and CG terminal circuit, and ABS warning, brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction), slip indicator and brake hold standby indicator light circuits.

        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.

        • Before connecting the terminals of the DLC3, if the brake hold operated indicator is blinking, the brake hold operated indicator stops blinking and turns off when terminals TC and CG of the DLC3 are connected.

      6. After completing the check, disconnect terminals TC and CG of the DLC3 to turn off the display.

        If 2 or more DTCs are detected at the same time, the DTCs will be displayed in ascending order.

    2. Clear the DTCs.

      2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

      3. Clear the DTCs stored in the ECU by depressing the brake pedal 8 times or more within 5 seconds.

      4. Check that the warning light indicates a normal system code.

      5. Remove SST from the terminals of the DLC3.

  3. END OF DTC CHECK/CLEAR
