FAULT FINDING

Follow the fault finding procedure in the sequence below:

  1. Use Microcheck or TestBook and associated

corrective service to diagnose fault.

  1. If Microcheck or TestBook are not available see

’Self-diagnosis function’on the following page.

  1. If no fault found using Microcheck/TestBook or

self-diagnosis and the fault is of an intermittent nature, check the following:

  • Security of all harness connectors to ABS components.
  • Open circuits in associated wiring and sensor leads whilst flexing the harness and sensor leads.
  • Internal ECU continuity between pins 2, 5, 7, 14 in C800 and the earth path pin 3 in C801. If no continuity exists replace ECU.
  • Clean/check ABS ECU to body earth point.

Microcheck/TestBook or display self diagnosis codes, check connections and wiring between the diagnostic socket and ECU.
