3. General Description
A: CAUTION
1. SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
“AIRBAG”
Airbag system wiring harness is routed near the
ABS wheel speed sensor and VDCCM&H/U.
CAUTION:
• All airbag system wiring harness and con-
nectors are colored yellow. Do not use the elec-
trical test equipment on these circuits.
• Be careful not to damage the airbag system
wiring harness when servicing the ABS wheel
speed sensor and VDCCM&H/U.
B: INSPECTION
Before performing diagnosis, check the following
items which might affect VDC problems.
1. BATTERY
Measure battery voltage and check electrolyte.
Standard voltage: 12 V or more
Specific gravity: More than 1.260
2. BRAKE FLUID
1) Check the brake fluid level.
2) Check the brake fluid for leaks.
3. HYDRAULIC UNIT
Check the hydraulic unit.
• With brake tester <Ref. to VDC-8, CHECKING
THE HYDRAULIC UNIT ABS OPERATION WITH
BRAKE TESTER, INSPECTION, VDC Control
Module & Hydraulic Control Unit (VDCCM&H/U).>
• Without brake tester <Ref. to VDC-8, CHECK-
ING THE HYDRAULIC UNIT ABS OPERATION
BY PRESSURE GAUGE, INSPECTION, VDC
Control Module & Hydraulic Control Unit (VDC-
CM&H/U).>
4. BRAKE DRAG
Check for brake drag.
5. BRAKE PAD AND ROTOR
Check the brake pad and rotor.
• FRONT <Ref. to BR-18, INSPECTION, Front
Brake Pad.> <Ref. to BR-19, INSPECTION, Front
Disc Rotor.>
• REAR <Ref. to BR-25, INSPECTION, Rear
