Work Procedure

CAUTION:
  • Use "Manual Configuration" only when "TYPE ID" of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) cannot be read.
  • After configuration, turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON and check that the VDC warning lamp turns OFF after staying illuminated for approximately two seconds.
  • If an error occurs during configuration, start over from the beginning.
  1. CHECKING TYPE ID (1) 

    Use EPC (service parts catalog) to search ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) of the applicable vehicle and find "Type ID".

    Is "Type ID" displayed?

    YES

    Print out "Type ID" and GO TO 2.

    NO

    "Configuration" is not required for ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit). Replace in the usual manner. Refer to ABS ACTUATOR AND ELECTRIC UNIT (CONTROL UNIT) : Removal & Installation .

  2. CHECKING TYPE ID (2) 

    SYMBOL CONSULT Configuration

    1. Select "Before Replace ECU" of "Read/Write Configuration".
    2. Check that "Type ID" is displayed on the CONSULT screen.

    Is "Type ID" displayed?

    YES

    GO TO 3.

    NO

    GO TO 7.

  3. VERIFYING TYPE ID (1) 

    SYMBOL CONSULT Configuration

    Compare a "Type ID" displayed on the CONSULT screen with the one searched by using EPC (service parts catalog) to check that these "Type ID" agree with each other.

    NOTE: For the "Type ID" searched by using EPC (service parts catalog), use the last five digits of the "Type ID".

    GO TO 4.

  4. SAVING TYPE ID 

    SYMBOL CONSULT Configuration

    Save "Type ID" on CONSULT.

    GO TO 5.

  5. REPLACING ABS ACTUATOR AND ELECTRIC UNIT (CONTROL UNIT) (1) 

    Replace ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit). Refer to ABS ACTUATOR AND ELECTRIC UNIT (CONTROL UNIT) : Removal & Installation .

    CAUTION: Never perform the following work items:
    • Air bleeding
    • Adjustment of steering angle sensor neutral position
    • Calibration of decel G sensor

    GO TO 6.

  6. WRITING (AUTOMATIC WRITING) 

    SYMBOL CONSULT Configuration

    1. Select "After Replace ECU" of "Re/programming, Configuration" or that of "Read / Write Configuration".
    2. Select the "Type ID" agreeing with the one stored on CONSULT and the one searched by using EPC (service parts catalog) to write the "Type ID" into the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
      NOTE: For the "Type ID" searched by using EPC (service parts catalog), use the last five digits of the "Type ID".

    GO TO 9.

  7. REPLACING ABS ACTUATOR AND ELECTRIC UNIT (CONTROL UNIT) (2) 

    Replace ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit). Refer to ABS ACTUATOR AND ELECTRIC UNIT (CONTROL UNIT) : Removal & Installation .

    CAUTION: Never perform the following work items:
    • Air bleeding
    • Adjustment of steering angle sensor neutral position
    • Calibration of decel G sensor

    GO TO 8.

  8. WRITING (MANUAL WRITING) 

    SYMBOL CONSULT Configuration

    1. Select "Manual Configuration".
    2. Select the "Type ID" searched by using EPC (service parts catalog) to write the "Type ID" into the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit).
      NOTE: For the "Type ID" searched by using EPC (service parts catalog), use the last five digits of the "Type ID".

    GO TO 9.

  9. VERIFYING TYPE ID (2) 

    Compare "Type ID" written into the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) with the one searched by using EPC (service parts catalog) to check that these "Type ID" agree with each other.

    NOTE: For the "Type ID" searched by using EPC (service parts catalog), use the last five digits of the "Type ID".

    GO TO 10.

  10. CHECKING VDC WARNING LAMP 
    1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON and check that the VDC warning lamp turns OFF after staying illuminated for approximately two seconds.

  11. PERFORMING SUPPLEMENTARY WORK 
    1. Perform the air bleeding. Refer to BRAKE FLUID : Air Bleeding .
    2. Perform the adjustment of steering angle sensor neutral position. Refer to Work Procedure .
    3. Perform the calibration of decel G sensor. Refer to Work Procedure .
    4. Perform the self-diagnosis of all systems.
    5. Erase self-diagnosis results.

    End of work.
