Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)

EHCU stores the fault identification and disables the
ABS.

1. How to display and erase DTCs:

NOTE:

D

If DTCs are not displayed, harness C-4 connector
terminal 30 and I-10 connector terminal 2 may be
disconnected.  Repair the harness and try DTC
display again.

DTCs can be displayed also by TECH 2.  Select mode
“F0: Diagnostic Trouble Codes” from Application
Menu.

1. How to start DTC display:

D

Confirm that the vehicle has come to a complete
stop (with the wheels standing still) and that the
brake pedal is not depressed.  (Unless these two
conditions are satisfied, DTC display cannot be
started.)

With IGN OFF, connect #12 terminal with #4
terminal or # 5 terminal (GND) . Then turn IGN ON.

Conduct brake switch ON/OFF operation 6 or more
times within 3 seconds of self-diagnosis startup.

have passed since self-diagnosis startup, or if
self-diagnosis has started with brake switched on

If the following should occurs during Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) display the display will be
discontinued.  After initial check, the status that is
under the control of ABS will be returned :

If the ABS should turn OFF due to an intermittent
defect, the system will be restored at the next key
cycle, if the initial check finds no abnormality (when
IGN is switched from OFF to ON).
