INSPECTION PROCEDURE
NOTICE: When replacing the master cylinder solenoid, perform zero point calibration Programming and Relearning.

PROCEDURE

1. INSPECT IF SKID CONTROL ECU CONNECTOR IS SECURELY CONNECTED
(a) Check the skid control ECU connector's connecting condition.
OK:
The connector should be securely connected.
NG -- CONNECT CONNECTOR TO ECU
OK -- Continue to next step.
2. INSPECT BATTERY
(a) Check the battery voltage.
Standard voltage:
11 to 14 V
NG -- INSPECT CHARGING SYSTEM
OK -- Continue to next step.
3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - COMBINATION METER)





(a) Disconnect the skid control ECU connector and combination meter connector.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
(a) Check the combination meter system Meter / Gauge System.
NG -- REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
OK -- Continue to next step.
5. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (HDCS TERMINAL)





(a) Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:






OK -- REPLACE MASTER CYLINDER SOLENOID
NG -- Continue to next step.
6. INSPECT DOWNHILL ASSIST CONTROL SWITCH





(a) Disconnect the downhill assist control switch connector.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPLACE DOWNHILL ASSIST CONTROL SWITCH
OK -- Continue to next step.
7. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - DOWNHILL ASSIST CONTROL SWITCH)





(a) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
