DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

DTC U1901 [DSC/RSC] DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

INSPECT COMBINED SENSOR SIGNAL
(CAN2 LINE) FOR OPEN CIRCUIT



Disconnect the DSC/RSC HU/CM
connectors.



Disconnect the combined sensor connectors.



Inspect for continuity between the
DSC/RSC HU/CM connectors (vehicle
harness-side) and the following combined
sensor connector terminals (vehicle harness-
side):



Combined sensor (CAN2_L): M-C



Combined sensor (CAN2_H): P-D



Is there continuity?

Yes Go to the next step.

Repair or replace the wiring harness, then

go to Step 4.

INSPECT COMBINED SENSOR SIGNAL
(CAN2 LINE) FOR SHORT CIRCUIT



Inspect for continuity between the following
DSC/RSC HU/CM connector terminals

Yes

Repair or replace the wiring harness, then
go to Step 4.

(vehicle harness-side) and body ground:



Combined sensor (CAN2_L): M



Combined sensor (CAN2_H): P



Is there continuity?

Go to the next step.

INSPECT THE COMBINED SENSOR



Reconnect all disconnected connectors.
Inspect the combined sensor.

(See COMBINED SENSOR
INSPECTION .)



Is the combined sensor normal?

Yes Go to the next step.

Replace the combined sensor, then go to

the next step.

(See COMBINED SENSOR

REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)

VERIFY THAT THE SAME DTC IS NOT
PRESENT



Clear the DTCs from the memory.

(See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC
[DSC/RSC].)



Are the same DTCs present?

Yes

Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
If the malfunction recurs, replace the
DSC/RSC HU/CM, then go to the next
step.
(See DSC/RSC HU/CM
REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)

Go to the next step.

VERIFY THAT NO OTHER DTCS ARE
PRESENT



Are any other DTCs output?

Yes

Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
(See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC
[DSC/RSC].)

DTC troubleshooting completed.

2. Precautions during servicing of DSC/RSC

The DSC/RSC is composed of electrical and mechanical parts. It is necessary to categorize malfunctions
as being either electrical or hydraulic when performing troubleshooting.

1. Malfunction in electrical system



The control module has an on-board diagnostic function. With this function, the ABS
warning light and/or BRAKE system warning light and/or DSC indicator light and/or TCS
OFF light will illuminate when there is a problem in the electrical system.

Also, past and present malfunctions are in the control module. This function can find
malfunctions that do not occur during periodic inspections. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-
2, the stored malfunctions will be displayed in the order of occurrence. To find out the causes
of DSC/RSC malfunctions, use these on-board diagnostic results.



If a malfunction occurred in the past but is now normal, the cause is likely a temporary poor
connection of the wiring harness.

The control module usually operates normally. Be careful when searching for the cause of
malfunction.

wheel speed sensors are
spun for 20 s or more.

After turning
ignition switch off,
vehicle is driven at
speed greater than
10 km/h {6.2 mph}
and normal
operation is
confirmed.

DSC/RSC HU/CM
detects that wheel speed
sensors determine that
two or more wheels are
malfunctioning.

speed sensors determine
three or more wheels are
functioning correctly.
