ABS/VSA Indicator

• If the system is OK, the ABS and VSA indicators go off 2 seconds after turning the ignition switch ON (II).
• The ABS and VSA indicators come on when the control unit detects a problem in the system. However, even though the system is operating properly, the indicator may come on under these conditions:
  • Only the drive wheel rotates.
  • One drive wheel is stuck.
  • The vehicle goes into a spin.
  • The ABS or VSA continues to operate for a long time.
  • The vehicle is subjected to an electrical signal disturbance.

To determine the actual cause of the problem, question the client about the problem, taking the above conditions into consideration.

• When a problem is detected and the ABS indicator comes on, but not the VSA indicator, there are cases when the indicator stays on until the ignition switch is turned OFF, and cases when the indicator goes off automatically when the system returns to normal.
