STEP 9. Check the stop lamp switch circuit. 
Measure the voltage at ABS-ECU connector 
B-118.

(1) Disconnect ABS-ECU connector B-118 and 

measure at the harness side.

(2) Depress the brake pedal to turn on the stop lamp 

switch.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 19 and 

earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: IIs the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 12.

NO : 

Go to Step 10.

STEP 10. Check the following connectors.

•

ABS-ECU connector B-118

•

Joint connector C-105

• Intermediate connector C-124

• Stop lamp switch connector C-102

Check the connectors for loose, corroded or dam-
aged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the con-
nector.

Q: Are the connectors and terminals in good 

condition?
YES : 

Go to Step 11.

STEP 11. Check the following harness wire.

The wire between stop lamp switch connector C-102 
(terminal 1) and ABS-ECU connector B-118 (terminal 
19)

Q: Is the harness wire damaged?

YES : 

Repair or replace it and then go to Step 13.

NO : 

Go to Step 13.

STEP 12. Check the following connector.

•

ABS-ECU connector B-118
Check the connector for loose, corroded or damaged 
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.

Q: Are the connector and terminals in good 

condition?
YES : 

Replace the brake modulator hydraulic unit 

(integrated with ABS-ECU) (Refer to 

P.35B-143

). Then go to Step 13.

NO : 

Repair it and then go to Step 13.

STEP 13. Retest the system.

Q: Is the neutral position learning of the steering 

wheel sensor detected by the ABS system?
YES : 

The procedure is complete.

NO : 

Return to Step 1.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 7: Faulty ABS Operation

COMMENT ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM 
(COMMENT)

The cause depends on driving and road surface con-
ditions, so diagnosis may be difficult. However, if no 
diagnosis code is set, carry out the following inspec-
tion.

PROBABLE CAUSES

The most likely cause for this case is:

• Malfunction of the brake modulator hydraulic unit

DIAGNOSIS

Check the brake modulator hydraulic unit (Refer to 

P.35B-140

). If the brake modulator hydraulic unit 

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

INSPECTION PROCEDURE FOR 
TROUBLE SYMPTOMS <R.H. drive 
vehicle>

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 1: Communication between the M.U.T.-II/III and all the Systems is Not 
Possible.

OPERATION

A battery positive voltage is applied on the diagnosis 
connector power terminal (terminal 16). The earth 
terminals (terminal 4, 5) are earthed to the vehicle 
body.

COMMENT ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

The cause is probably a defect in power supply cir-
cuit or the earth circuit.

PROBABLE CAUSES

The most likely causes for this case are:

• Malfunction of the diagnosis connector

• Damaged wiring harness or connector

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the power supply circuit. Voltage 
measurement at diagnosis connector C-14.

Measure the voltage between terminal 16 and earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 4.

NO : 

Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the following connectors.

•

Diagnosis connector C-14

•

Junction block connectors C-212, C-214

•

Intermediate connector C-126
