harness-side connector, and then measure at the special
tool connector side.
NOTE: Do not connect the special tool to ASC-ECU.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(3) Measure the voltage between the wheel speed sensor

power supply terminal (signal terminal) No. 36 and the body
ground as well as between the ground terminal No. 37 and
the body ground.

OK: 1 volt or less

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO (Not normal at terminal 34 or 33) : Go to Step 6.

STEP 5. Resistance measurement at A-05 ASC-ECU
connector
(1) Disconnect the ASC-ECU connector, connect the ASC

check harness (Special tool: MB991997) to the wiring
harness-side connector, and then measure at the special
tool connector side.
NOTE: Do not connect the special tool to ASC-ECU.

(2) Measure the resistance between the wheel speed sensor

circuit power supply terminal (signal terminal) No. 36 and
the body ground as well as between the ground terminal
No. 37 and the body ground.

OK: No continuity

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO (Not normal at the terminal No. 36 or 37) : Go to Step

6.

STEP 6. Connector check: Connector check: A-05
ASC-ECU connector, C-45 intermediate connector, D-18
wheel speed sensor <RL> connector
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Repair the defective connector. Then go to Step 13.

STEP 7. Wiring harness check between A-05 ASC-ECU
connector terminal No. 36 and D-18 wheel speed sensor
<RL> connector terminal No. 1, and between A-05
ASC-ECU connector terminal No. 37 and D-18 wheel speed
sensor <RL> connector terminal No. 2

• Short circuit check of wheel speed sensor <RL> circuit

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Replace the wheel speed sensor <RL>. (Refer to

P.35C-274

.) Then go to Step 13.

NO : Repair the wiring harness. Then go to Step 13.

STEP 8. Voltage measurement at A-05 ASC-ECU connector
(1) Disconnect the ASC-ECU connector, connect the ASC

check harness (Special tool: MB991997) to the
ASC-ECU-side connector and the wiring harness-side
connector, and then measure at the special tool connector
side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(3) Measure the voltage between the wheel speed sensor

circuit power supply terminal (signal terminal) No. 36 and
the body ground.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 9.
NO : Go to Step 11.

STEP 9. Wiring harness check between A-05 ASC-ECU
connector terminal No. 36 and D-18 wheel speed sensor
<RL> connector terminal No. 1, and between A-05
ASC-ECU connector terminal No. 37 and D-18 wheel speed
sensor <RL> connector terminal No. 2

• Open circuit check of wheel speed sensor <RL> circuit

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 10.
NO : Repair the wiring harness. Then go to Step 13.

STEP 10. Check of wheel speed sensor as a single unit
Refer to

P.35C-277

.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 11.
NO : Replace the wheel speed sensor <RL>. (Refer to

P.35C-274

.) Then go to Step 13.

STEP 11. Connector check: Connector check: A-05
ASC-ECU connector, C-45 intermediate connector, D-18
wheel speed sensor <RL> connector
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 12.
NO : Repair the defective connector. Then go to Step 13.

STEP 12. Check whether the DTC is reset.
Drive the vehicle at 12mph (20 km/h) or more.
NOTE: The ABS warning light does not turn OFF in some
cases unless the vehicle runs at 12mph (20 km/h) or higher.
Q: Is DTC C1020 set?

YES : Replace the hydraulic unit (incorporates in

ASC-ECU).(Refer to

P.35C-272

.) Then go to Step 13.

NO : Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to GROUP 00

− How

to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-15

.)

STEP 13. Check whether the DTC is reset.
Drive the vehicle at 12mph (20 km/h) or more.
NOTE: The ABS warning light does not turn OFF in some
cases unless the vehicle runs at 12mph (20 km/h) or higher.
Q: Is DTC C1020 set?

YES : Return to Step 1.
NO : This diagnosis is complete.

DIAGNOSIS

ACTIVE SKID CONTROL SYSTEM (ASC)

35C-38

DTC C102B: Abnormality in RR wheel speed sensor circuit

CAUTION

• If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incor-

rect diagnostic trouble code may be set. Prior to this
diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines.

• Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN

bus lines are normal.

• When the hydraulic unit (integrated with ASC-ECU) is

replaced, always perform the calibration of steering
wheel sensor, G and yaw rate sensor, brake fluid pres-
sure sensor, cut valve, and inlet valve.(Refer to

P.35C-266

,

P.35C-267

,

P.35C-268

, and

P.35C-269

.)

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• Each wheel speed detecting section is a kind of a pulse

generator. It consists of the encoder (plate on which the
north and south pole of magnet are arranged alternately) for
detecting the wheel speed, which rotates at the same speed
of the wheels, and the wheel speed sensor. This detecting
section outputs the frequency pulse signals in proportion to
the wheel speed.

• The pulse signals generated by the wheel speed detecting

section are sent to ASC-ECU. ASC-ECU uses the fre-
quency of the pulse signals to determine the wheel speed.
