Inspection Procedure

NOTE: When replacing the brake actuator assembly, perform zero point CALIBRATION  .
  1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM 
    1. Check if a CAN communication system DTC is output (See DTC CHECK/CLEAR  ).

      RESULT REFERENCE TABLE

      Result Proceed to
      DTC is not output A
      DTC is output B

    B: INSPECT CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM  (See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE TABLE  )

    A: Go to next step 

  2. INSPECT DLC3 
    1. Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
