ACTUATOR TEST REFERENCE

M1352011600657

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.

CHECK AT ABS-ECU

M1352011800628

TERMINAL VOLTAGE CHECK CHART

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

1. Measure the voltages between terminals (32) or (34) (ground terminals) and each respective terminal.
2. The terminal layouts are shown in the illustrations.

RESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY BETWEEN HARNESS-SIDE CONNECTOR 
TERMINALS

1. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position and disconnect the ABS-ECU connectors before 

checking resistance and continuity.

2. Check between the terminals indicated in the table below.
3. The terminal layouts are shown in the illustration.
