Pinpoint Test F: No Communication With The Anti-Lock Brake System (Abs) Module

CAUTION: The Flex Probe Kit must be used for all test connections. Use of standard multimeter probes may damage wiring terminals.
  1. F1 CHECK CIRCUITS 601 (LB/PK) AND 88 (BK/WH) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Disconnect: Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) Module C135.
    • Key in ON position.
    • Measure the voltage between the ABS module C135 pins and ground as follows:
      PIN AND CIRCUIT SPECIFICATION

      Pin Circuit
      8 88 (BK/WH)
      13 601 (LB/PK)
      14 483 (RD)
    • Are the voltages greater than 10 volts? 
    • Yes  : GO to  F2.
    • No  : REPAIR the circuit in question. TEST the system for normal operation.
  2. F2 CHECK THE ABS MODULE GROUNDS 
    • Measure the resistance between the ABS module C135 pin 15, circuit 57 (BK), harness side and ground; and between the ABS module C135 pin 12, circuit 57 (BK), harness side and ground.
