ABS > ABS Control Module and Hydraulic Control Unit (ABSCM&H/U)

INSPECTION

1. Check the condition of connection and settlement of connector.

2. Check the mark used for ABSCM&H/U identification.

Refer to “SPECIFICATION” for the identification mark.

1. CHECKING THE HYDRAULIC UNIT ABS OPERATION BY PRESSURE GAUGE

1. Lift up the vehicle, and remove the wheels.

2. Remove the air bleeder screws from FL and FR caliper bodies.

3. Connect two pressure gauges to FL and FR caliper bodies.

CAUTION:

• Use a pressure gauge used exclusively for brake fluid measurement.

• Do not use the pressure gauge used for the measurement of transmission oil. Doing so will cause the piston seal to expand and deform.

NOTE:

Wrap sealing tape around the pressure gauge.

4. Bleed air from the pressure gauges and the FL and FR caliper bodies.

5. Perform ABS sequence control.

6. When the hydraulic unit begins to work, first the FL side performs decompression, hold and compression, and then the FR side performs decompression, hold and compression.

7. Read values indicated on the pressure gauge and check if the fluctuation of the values between decompression and compression meets the standard values. Depress the brake pedal and check that the kick-back is normal, and tightness is normal.

8. Disconnect the pressure gauges from FL and FR caliper bodies.

9. Install the air bleeder screws of FL and FR caliper bodies.

10. Remove the air bleeder screws from RL and RR caliper bodies.

11. Connect two pressure gauges to RL and RR caliper bodies.

12. Bleed air from the brake system.

13. Bleed air from RL and RR caliper bodies, and pressure gauge.

14. Perform ABS sequence control.

15. When the hydraulic unit begins to work, first the RR side performs decompression, hold and compression, and then the RL side performs decompression, hold and compression.

16. Read values indicated on the pressure gauge and check if the fluctuation of the values between decompression and compression meets specification. Depress the brake pedal and check that the kick-back is normal, and tightness is normal.

17. Disconnect the pressure gauge from the RL and RR caliper bodies.

18. Install the air bleeder screws of RL and RR caliper bodies.

19. Bleed air from the brake system.

2. CHECKING THE HYDRAULIC UNIT ABS OPERATION WITH THE BRAKE TESTER

1. Install the spare fuse to the FWD connector located in the main fuse box for models with AT.

2. Since the MT model cannot cut off the AWD circuit, set the wheels other than the measured one on free rollers.

3. Prepare for ABS sequence control.

4. Set the front wheels or rear wheels on the brake tester and set the gear to “neutral”.

5. Operate the brake tester.

6. Perform ABS sequence control.

7. When the hydraulic unit begins to work, check the following work sequence.

(1) The FL wheel performs decompression, hold and compression in sequence, and subsequently the FR wheel repeats the cycle.

(2) The RR wheel performs decompression, hold and compression in sequence, and subsequently the RL wheel repeats the cycle.

8. Read values indicated on the brake tester and check if the fluctuation of the values between decompression and compression meets specification.
