    See step  4

  4. TEST MODE INSPECTION (VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM) 

    HINT: 

    When entering test mode, the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) communicates with the driving support ECU assembly to judge whether the vehicle is equipped with the pre-collision system. Therefore, do not exit test mode within 5 seconds of entering test mode.

    1. Procedure to enter Test Mode
      1. Turn the engine switch off.
      2. Check that the steering wheel is centered.
      3. Apply the parking brake.
      4. Check that the shift lever is in P.
      5. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
      6. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
      7. Turn the Techstream on.
      8. Switch the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) to Test Mode using the Techstream. Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRAC / Utility / Signal Check.

        HINT: 

        Do not exit test mode within 5 seconds of entering test mode. If test mode is exited within 5 seconds of entering test mode, DTC U1104 may be stored. If DTC U1104 is output after exiting test mode, enter test mode again, wait at least 5 seconds, then recheck for DTCs.

        HINT: 

        If the ABS warning and slip indicator lights do not blink, inspect the ABS warning and slip indicator light circuits.

    2. End of Test Mode (Signal Check)
      1. End Test Mode (signal check) using the Techstream
        1. Turn the engine switch off and enter normal mode.
        2. Remove the Techstream.
