HINT: Using the ABS actuator checker (SST), check the op-
eration of the actuator. If the actuator does not operate,
check the operation of sub–wire harness G according to
instructions on pages BR–97 and BR101. If the solenoid and/
or pump motor relay are abnormal, replace the relay and in-
spect the actuator operation again.

w/o TRAC:

1. 

INSPECT BATTERY POSITIVE VOLTAGE

Battery positive voltage:

10–14V

2. 

DISCONNECT CONNECTORS FROM ACTUATOR
Disconnect the 2 connectors from the actuator.

3. 

CONNECT ACTUATOR CHECKER (SST) TO ACTUATOR

(a)  Connect the actuator checker (SST) to the actuator side wire

harnesses via the sub–wire harnesses (SST), as shown.
SST 09990–00150, 09990–00210, 09990–00250 and
