TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)

35C-35

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 6: The TCL System does not Operate.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
The cause depends on driving and road surface 
conditions, so diagnosis may be difficult. However, if 
no diagnostic trouble code is displayed, carry out the 
following inspection.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely 
cause for this case:)
Malfunction of the hydraulic unit

DIAGNOSIS
Check the hydraulic unit (Refer to 

P.35C-39

.). If the hydraulic 

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

DATA LIST REFERENCE TABLE

M1354003000043

The following items can be read by the scan tool 
from the ABS-ECU input data.

ACTUATOR TEST REFERENCE TABLE

M1354003100040

The scan tool activates the following actuators for 
testing.

NOTE: If the ABS-ECU is inoperative, actuator 
testing cannot be carried out.

NOTE: Actuator testing is only possible when the 
vehicle is stationary. If the vehicle speed during 
actuator testing exceeds 10 km/h (6 mph), forced 
actuation will be canceled.

TERMINAL VOLTAGE CHECK CHART
1. Measure the voltages between terminals (16), 

(19) and (30) (ground terminals) and each 
respective terminal.

2. The terminal layouts are shown in the illustration 

below.

NOTE: Do not measure terminal voltage for 
approximately three seconds after the ignition 
switch is turned to "ON." The ABS-ECU performs 
the initial check during that period.

NO.
