    2. Disconnect the H65 skid control buzzer assembly connector.
    3. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    4. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      H65-2 (IG1) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V

      (to Skid Control Buzzer Assembly)

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT) 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. INSPECT SKID CONTROL BUZZER ASSEMBLY 
    1. Turn the engine switch off.

      *a Component without harness connected
      (Skid Control Buzzer Assembly)

    NG → See step   11 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY - SKID CONTROL BUZZER ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Disconnect the A40 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A40-21 (BZ) - H65-1 (BZ) Always Below 1 Ω
      A40-21 (BZ) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  6. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (GND1 TERMINAL) 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A40-1 (GND1) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

      *a Front view of wire harness connector
      (to Skid Control ECU (Brake Actuator Assembly))

      HINT: 

      If troubleshooting has been carried out according to Problem Symptoms Table, refer back to the table and proceed to the next step before replacing the part. Refer to PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE [06/2012 - ] .

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (GND1 CIRCUIT) 

    OK → See step   10 

  7. INSPECT BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY 
    1. Disconnect the A40 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.
    2. Check the skid control buzzer assembly operation.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      Buzzer stops. A
      Buzzer sounds constantly. B

      HINT: 

      If troubleshooting has been carried out according to Problem Symptoms Table, refer back to the table and proceed to the next step before replacing the part. Refer to PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE [06/2012 - ] .

    B → See step   8 

    A → See step   10 

  8. REPLACE SKID CONTROL BUZZER ASSEMBLY
