Description


Inspection procedure
The skid control ecu inputs the signals from the ecm, steering angle sensor, and yaw rate and acceleration sensor via can communication system.
- Check harness and connector (momentary interruption)
- Using the data list of the intelligent tester, check for any momentary interruption in the wire harness and connector corresponding to a dtc (see page bc-23).

Result
Hint:
Perform the above inspection before removing the sensor and connector.

- Check if each sensor and ecm connector is securely connected
- Check if each sensor or ecm connector is securely connected.

- Reconfirm dtc
- Record the output dtcs (for abs, vsc and can communication) (see page bc-47).
If the can communication system dtc and the relevant sensor dtcs are output simultaneously, troubleshoot the relevant sensor dtcs (for abs and vsc) after the can communication system returns to normal.
