TSB Revision

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)

35B-92

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus 
line.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
Use scan tool MB991958 to diagnose the CAN bus lines.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
Q: Is the check result satisfactory?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Repair the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C, 

Diagnosis-CAN Bus Diagnostic Chart 

P.54C-14

). 

Repair the CAN bus lines, and then go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991958, read the combination 
meter diagnostic trouble code.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
Use scan tool MB991958 to check whether combination meter 
DTC U1102 has been set.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check whether combination meter DTC U1102 has been 

set.

Q: Is combination meter DTC U1102 set?

YES : Replace the hydraulic unit (integrated with 

ABS-ECU). 

NO :  Replace the combination meter.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)

35B-93

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 5: Faulty ABS Operation

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

The cause depends on driving and road surface con-
ditions, so diagnosis may be difficult. However, if no 
diagnostic trouble code is displayed, carry out the fol-
lowing inspection.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most 
likely causes for this case:)

• Malfunction of the hydraulic unit

.

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Hydraulic unit check
 Refer to 

P.35B-102

.

Q: Is the hydraulic unit normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Connect the brake pipes correctly, repair the external 

brake lines, or replace the hydraulic unit.

STEP 2. Verify that the condition described by the 
customer exists.
Q: Can any faults be found with the brake operation?

YES : Check the brake system related components except 

the ABS system.

NO :  The procedure is complete.

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

ACTUATOR TEST REFERENCE TABLE

M1352011600765

The scan tool activates the following actuators for 
testing.
NOTE: If the ABS-ECU runs down, actuator testing 
cannot be carried out.

NOTE: Actuator testing is only possible when the 
vehicle is stationary.

TERMINAL VOLTAGE CHECK CHART

Required Special Tool:
MB991970: ABS Check Harness
1. Disconnect the ABS-ECU connector A-02, and then use 

special tool MB991970 to measure the voltages between 
terminals (2) and each terminal other than terminal (18). 
Also measure voltages between terminal (18) and each 
terminal other than terminal (2).

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

NO.
