Without Scan Tool

  1. Turn ignition off. Using a fused jumper wire or Service Connector (SST 09843-18020), connect Data Link Connector No. 1 (DLC1) connector terminals Ts and E1. See Figure. DLC1 is located on left side of engine compartment, near junction block. Start engine. ABS light should blink once every .13 second. If ABS light does not blink, check ABS light circuit. See ABS WARNING LIGHT CIRCUIT  under SYSTEM TESTS.
  2. Drive vehicle at 28 MPH or greater for several seconds in a straight line. Stop vehicle. Using another fused jumper wire or Service Connector (SST 09843-18020), connect DLC1 connector terminals Tc and E1. There should now be 2 jumper wires. See Figure.
  3. Observe ABS warning light. If system is normal, ABS light will blink every .25 second. If system is malfunctioning, ABS light will flash codes. Identify DTC and probable cause. See SPEED SENSOR DIAGNOSTIC CODE IDENTIFICATION  table. Repair as necessary. Turn ignition off. Remove fused jumper wires or Service Connectors (SST 09843-18020), from DLC1 connector.
