Inspection Procedure 8: Abnormality in active stability control system operation.



caution
  • If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect diagnosis code may be stored. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C - CAN Bus Diagnostics Table ).
  • Whenever ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus lines are normal.
  • When the hydraulic unit (integrated with ASC-ECU) is replaced, always carry out the calibration of the steering wheel sensor and the G and yaw rate sensor (Refer to and ).

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM


In case of this trouble symptom, the stability control/TCL system operation may be disabled. Diagnosis code may be stored by the stability control/TCL system using M.U.T.-III.

PROBABLE CAUSES




DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. Check the diagnosis code.


Using M.U.T.-III, check the diagnosis code for the ASC system. (Refer to .)

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 2.
Carry out the diagnosis for the diagnosis code (Refer to ). Then go to Step 6.

STEP 2. Engine-ECU coding data check


Using M.U.T.-III, check if any abnormality is present to the coding data below which are stored in the engine-ECU. (Refer to GROUP 00 - Coding Reference Table <Vehicles for GCC>, <Vehicles for THAILAND>.)
A.S.C.
    OK: Available

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 3.
Replace the engine-ECU (Refer to GROUP 13A - Engine-ECU ). Then go to Step 6.

STEP 3. Hydraulic unit (integrated with ASC-ECU) check


Check that the brake tube is installed to the hydraulic unit (integrated with ASC-ECU) correctly (Refer to ).

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 4.
Connect the brake tubes correctly, and repair or replace the external brake lines of the hydraulic unit (integrated with ASC-ECU). Then go to Step 6.

STEP 4. Operation check


Q. Does stability control/TCL operate normally?

The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Check the brake system related components other than the stability control/TCL system. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Operation check.


Q. Does stability control/TCL operate normally?

Replace the hydraulic unit assembly (integrated with ASC-ECU) (Refer to ). Then go to Step 6.
This diagnosis is complete.

STEP 6. Operation check.


Q. Does stability control/TCL operate normally?

This diagnosis is complete.
Return to Step 1.
