and terminals.

Terminals

No. 23  — No. 24 :

Does the measured value exceed the specified 
value?

1 M

Ω

Go to step 4.

Replace 
ABSCM&H/U.  
<Ref. to ABS-6, 
ABS Control Mod-
ule and Hydraulic 
Control Unit

Same DTC is not indicated.

Go to step 6.

Replace 
ABSCM&H/U.  
<Ref. to ABS-6, 
ABS Control Mod-
ule and Hydraulic 
Control Unit

6

CHECK ANY OTHER DTC APPEARANCE.
Are other DTC being output?

Other DTC is not indicated.

A temporary poor 
contact.

Proceed with the 
diagnosis corre-
sponding to the 
DTC.

1

CHECK INPUT VOLTAGE OF ABSCM&H/U.
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect connector from ABSCM&H/U.
3) Turn ignition switch to ON.
4) Measure voltage between ABSCM&H/U 

connector and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(F49) No. 25 (+) — Chassis ground (

−−−−

):

Is the measured value within the specified 
range?

10 - 15 V

Go to step 2.

Repair harness/
connector 
between battery 
and ABSCM&H/U 
and check fuse 
SBF-holder.

2

CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT OF MOTOR.
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF.
2) Measure resistance between ABSCM&H/U 

connector and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal
