Test Mode Procedure [10/2015 - 08/2016]

1. When the power switch is turned on (IG), check that the ABS warning, brake warning / red (malfunction), brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction), slip indicator, brake hold standby indicator and brake hold operated indicator lights come on until the power switch is turned on (READY).

   HINT: 

   • When the power switch is turned on (IG), the VSC OFF indicator light comes on for approximately 3 seconds.
   • When the brake fluid level is low, the brake warning light / red (malfunction) comes on.
   • If the skid control ECU assembly stores any DTCs, the ABS warning, brake warning / red (malfunction), brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction) and slip indicator lights will come on. Also, in this state, if the vehicle is under the following conditions and the brake hold switch (electric parking brake switch assembly) is turned on, the brake hold operated indicator light blinks.
     1. Vehicle Conditions:
        1. The driver side door is closed.
        2. The driver side seat belt is fastened.
   • If any of the indicators remains on or does not come on, proceed to troubleshooting for the light circuits listed below.

HINT: 

• If the power switch is turned from on (IG) to on (ACC) or off during Test Mode (signal check), DTCs recorded during the sensor check will be cleared.
• Signals related to the electronically controlled brake system can be inspected by performing a Test Mode (signal check) inspection. During the inspection, the display of items determined normal by the skid control ECU assembly changes from incomplete to complete.
• Even during Test Mode, if there is a system malfunction that causes brake hold control to be prohibited, when the vehicle is under the following conditions and the brake hold switch (electric parking brake switch assembly) is turned on, the brake hold operated indicator light blinks.
  1. Vehicle Conditions:
     1. The driver side door is closed.
     2. The driver side seat belt is fastened.

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

      Chassis > ABS/VSC/TRAC > Utility 

      Tester Display
      Signal Check

   9. Check that the ABS warning, brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction) and slip indicator lights come on for several seconds and then blink in the Test Mode pattern.

      HINT: 

      If the ABS warning, brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction) and slip indicator lights do not blink, inspect the ABS warning, brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction) and slip indicator light circuits.

   10. Check the ABS sensors.

       HINT: 

       Check that the ABS warning light is blinking in the Test Mode pattern before performing the following ABS sensor checks.

2. Acceleration Sensor Check
   1. Keep the vehicle stationary on a level surface for 1 second or more.

      HINT: 

      The acceleration sensor check can be performed by following the master cylinder pressure sensor check procedure below.

3. Master Cylinder Pressure Sensor Check
   NOTE:

   Before performing the master cylinder pressure sensor check, perform linear valve offset learning.

   1. Leave the vehicle in a stationary condition and release the brake pedal for 1 second or more, and quickly and continuously depress the brake pedal with a force greater than 98 N (10 kgf, 22.0 lbf) for 1 second.
   2. Check that the ABS warning light remains on for 3 seconds.

      HINT: 

      • Confirm that the ABS warning light comes on.
      • While the ABS warning light remains on, continue to depress the brake pedal with a force of 98 N (10 kgf, 22.0 lbf) or more.
      • The ABS warning light comes on for 3 seconds every time the preceding brake pedal operation is performed.
4. Speed Sensor Check
   NOTE:

   Before performing the speed sensor check, complete the acceleration sensor and master cylinder pressure sensor checks.

   1. Drive the vehicle straight-ahead.

      Accelerate the vehicle to a speed of 45 km/h (28 mph) or more for several seconds and check that the ABS warning light goes off.

      HINT: 

      • The sensor check may not complete if wheelspin occurs.
      • The ABS warning light comes on immediately if a malfunction is detected during the speed sensor check.
   2. Stop the vehicle.
      NOTE:

      • The speed sensor check may not complete if the speed sensor check is started while turning the steering wheel or spinning the wheels.
      • If the sensor check has not completed, the ABS warning light will blink while the vehicle is being driven and the ABS will not operate.
5. VSC Sensor Checks
   1. Check that the brake warning / yellow (minor malfunction) and slip indicator lights are blinking in the Test Mode pattern before performing the following VSC sensor checks.
6. VSC OFF Switch (Combination Switch Assembly) Check

   4. Press the brake hold switch (electric parking brake switch assembly) again.
   5. Check that the brake hold standby indicator light turns off.
8. End of Sensor Check
   1. When the sensor checks have completed, the ABS warning light goes off while the vehicle is being driven, and blinks in the Test Mode pattern while the vehicle is stopped.
      NOTE:

      When the acceleration sensor, speed sensor and master cylinder pressure sensor checks are complete, the sensor check is complete.

      If the sensor checks have not completed, the ABS warning light will remain blinking while the vehicle is being driven, and the ABS will not operate.

9. End of Test Mode (Signal Check)
   1. Turn the power switch off and disconnect the Techstream.
