TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL) DIAGNOSIS

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)

13C-36

DATA LIST REFERENCE TABLE

M1136003500071

NOTE: If the ABS-8 ECU or the active wheel
speed sensor are disconnected, or if the wiring is
an open/ short circuit, the ABS 8 ECU will shut
off power supply to the respective wheel speed
sensor. All other wheel speed sensors will oper-
ate normally. To restore the power supply, the
ignition switch must be turned to the "OFF" posi-
tion then to the "ON" position again.

The following items can be read by the diagnostic
tool from the ABS/TCL-ECU input data. (Refer to

P.13C-3

).

NOTE: Since the TCL is controlled with the same ABS/TCL-ECU used to control the ABS, the stoplight switch
check item (No.6) used only for the ABS also appear.

NOTE: If the ABS-8 ECU or the active wheel
speed sensor are disconnected, or if the wiring is
an open/ short circuit, the ABS 8 ECU will shut
off power supply to the respective wheel speed
sensor. All other wheel speed sensors will oper-
ate normally. To restore the power supply, the

tion then to the "ON" position again.

The diagnostic tool activates the following actuators
for testing. (Refer to

P.13C-3

).

NOTE: Since the TCL is controlled with the same ABS/TCL-ECU used to control the ABS, the FL, FR, RL or
RR Wheel ABS Drive testing items (No.01 to 04) used only for the ABS also appear.

CHART

.

Required Special Tools:
MB991219: Inspection Test Harness
MB991223: Harness Set
1. Disconnect the ABS/TCL-ECU connector A-02.

2. Measure the resistance and terminal voltage at the

ABS/TCL-ECU wiring harness-side connector A-02 using
the Inspection test harness MB991219 (by inserting probe)
between terminals shown in the table below and body
ground.

NOTE: The special tool (Inspection test harness) MB991219
for connector pin contact pressure should be used. The test
probe should never be forcibly inserted, as it may cause a
defective contact.

1. Disconnect the ABS/TCL-ECU connector A-02 and the

related wheel speed sensor connector, then turn the ignition
switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

2. Measure the resistance and continuity between the

ABS/TCL-ECU wiring harness-side connector A-02 and the
Wheel Speed Sensor connectors using the Inspection test
harness MB991219 (by inserting probe) and an ohmmeter
between terminals shown in the table below.

NOTE: The special tool (Inspection test harness) MB991219
for connector pin contact pressure should be used. The test
probe should never be forcibly inserted, as it may cause a
defective contact.
