Standard Flow of Diagnostic Troubleshooting
Notes With Regard To Diagnosis
The phenomena listed in the following table are not abnormal.
Condition
Explanation
System check sound
When starting the engine, a thudding sound can sometimes be heard coming from inside the engine compartment. This is because the system operation check is being performed.
ABS operation sound
1)
Sound of the motor inside the ABS hydraulic unit operation (whine).
2)
Sound is generated along with vibration of the brake pedal (scraping).
3)
When ABS operates, sound is generated from the vehicle chassis due to
repeated brake application and release
(Thump : suspension; squeak: tires)
ABS operation (Long braking distance)
For
road surfaces such as snow-covered and gravel roads, the braking
distance for vehicles with ABS can sometimes be longer than that for
other vehicles. Accordingly, advise the customer to drive safely on such
roads by lowering the vehicle speed.
Diagnosis detection conditions can vary depending on the diagnosis code. When checking the trouble symptom after the diagnosis code has been erased, ensure that the requirements listed in "Comment" are met.

in hydraulic pressure inside the brake line to prevent the wheels from
locking and is not an abnormality.

Bleeding of Brake System
This procedure should be followed to ensure adequate bleeding
of air and filling of the ESC unit, brake lines and master cylinder
with brake fluid.
1.
Remove the reservoir cap and fill the brake reservoir with brake fluid.
If there is any brake fluid on any painted surface, wash it off immediately.
When pressure bleeding, do not depress the brake pedal.
Recommended fluid........ DOT3 or DOT4
2.
Connect a clear plastic tube to the wheel cylinder bleeder
plug and insert the other end of the tube into a half filled clear
plastic bottle.
3.
Connect the GDS to the data link connector located underneath the dash panel.
4.
Select and operate according to the instructions on the GDS screen.
You must obey the maximum operating time of the ABS motor with the GDS to prevent the motor pump from burning.
(1)
Select vehicle name.
(2)
Select Anti-Lock Brake system.
(3)
Select HCU air bleeding mode.
(4)
