HYDRAULIC UNIT (HU) CHECK
1. Raise the vehicle using a jack and support the specified points with a rigid rack.
2.
cautionBefore connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-III), always turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position.
Before setting scan tool (M.U.T.-III), turn the ignition key to the LOCK (OFF) position.
3. Confirm that the selector lever is in the "N" position, and then start the engine.
4. When carrying out the actuator tests No.01 to 04, perform the actuator tests using scan tool (M.U.T.-III) while depressing the brake pedal. When carrying out the actuator tests No.05 to 08, perform the actuator tests using scan tool (M.U.T.-III) without depressing the brake pedal. When carrying out the actuator tests, rotate the wheel by hands to confirm that the braking force changes.
note
  • While performing the actuator test, the ABS warning light flashes at a rate of 2 Hz.
  • When ASC-ECU is disabled due to the fail-safe function, the scan tool (M.U.T.-III) actuator test cannot be performed.
  • After the actuator test has been performed, the ABS warning light, brake waning light, ASC ON indicator light, and ASC OFF indicator light illuminate until the ignition switch is turned to ON again or the communication between scan tool (M.U.T.-III) and ASC-ECU is terminated.
5.
This is indicated as shown in the above.
6. When any malfunction has been found, take a necessary action according to the "Judgment Table."

Hydraulic unit installation adjustment
 
 
1. Operate the pre-removal steps for the hydraulic unit. (Refer to .)
2. Remove all brake tubes.
3. Loosen the mounting bolt and nut of the hydraulic unit bracket.
4. Install all brake tubes temporarily.
5. Shake hydraulic unit to all directions with both hands to make the hydraulic unit bracket insulator fit with the unit.
6. Install the hydraulic unit bracket with mounting bolt and nut not to load the brake tube.
7. Install all brake tubes securely.
noteInstall the flare nut taking care not to let the brake tube turn together.
8. Operate the post-installation steps of the hydraulic unit. (Refer to .)
