STEP 9. Check the stop lamp switch circuit.
Voltage measurement at ABS-ECU connector
B-118.

(1) Disconnect ABS-ECU connector B-118 and

measure at the harness side.

(2) Depress the brake pedal to turn on the stop lamp

switch.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 19 and

earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 12.

NO :

Go to Step 10.

STEP 10. Check the following connectors.

•

ABS-ECU connector B-118

•

Joint connector C-105

• Intermediate connector C-124

•

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 7: Faulty ABS Operation

COMMENT ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM
(COMMENT)

The cause depends on driving and road surface con-
ditions, so diagnosis may be difficult. However, if no
diagnosis code is set, carry out the following inspec-
tion.

PROBABLE CAUSES

The most likely cause for this case is:

• Malfunction of the brake modulator hydraulic unit

DIAGNOSIS

Check the brake modulator hydraulic unit (Refer to

P.35B-140

). If the brake modulator hydraulic unit

(integrated with ABS-ECU) is malfunctioning, replace
it. Then check that the malfunction symptom is elimi-
nated.
