Troubleshooting item

ABS or TCS*1 operates frequently

TCS does not work correctly

*1: DSC system function contains traction control function, TCS/DSC indicator light goes on and off while TCS operates

Possible cause
• There is a difference in size or air pressure between front and rear tires.
• Incorrect ABS wheel-speed signal is inputted to DSC HU/CM.
• There is a malfunction in engine control system. (TCS malfunction)

Diagnostic procedure

Step

Inspection

Results

Action

1
CONFIRM DSC HU/CM AND PCM DTC
• Retrieve the DSC HU/CM DTC using the M-MDS. (See DTC INSPECTION.)
• Retrieve the PCM DTC using the M-MDS, if the traction control function has problem. (See DTC INSPECTION.)
• Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
Go to the next step.
2
INSPECT TIRE SIZE AND AIR PRESSURE
• Inspect tire size and air pressure.
• Tire size and air pressure as specified? (See WHEEL AND TIRE SPECIFICATION [(US)].)
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace with specified tires and adjust tire air pressure, and perform the repair completion verification.
3
INSPECT ABS WHEEL-SPEED SENSOR
• Is the ABS wheel-speed sensor normal?
Yes
Found malfunctioning part according to the “INTERMITTENT CONCERN TROUBLESHOOTING”.
No
ABS wheel-speed sensor installation inspection:
• Inspect the ABS wheel-speed sensor for looseness and confirm it is securely adhered.
ABS sensor rotor installation inspection:
• Inspect the ABS sensor rotor for poor installation.
Repair or replace any malfunctioning parts according to the inspection result.
Perform the repair completion verification.
Repair completion verification
VERIFY THAT MALFUNCTION SYMPTOMS DO NOT RECUR AFTER REPAIR
• Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.
• Has the malfunction symptom been eliminated?
Yes
Complete the symptom troubleshooting.
Explain to the customer what has been repaired.
No
Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.
If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.
