STEP 4. Check the harness wire between the valve relay
connector B-21X terminal 4 and ground.
Q: Is the harness wire between the valve relay connector

B-21X terminal 4 and ground damaged?
YES : Repair it and then go to Step 5.
NO : Replace the M-ASTC-ECU and go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Q: Does DTC 51 reset?

YES : Go to Step 1.
NO : The procedure is complete.

DTC 52: Valve Relay System (Open Circuit or OFF Failure)

.

VALVE RELAY CIRCUIT
Refer to

P.35B-64

.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION
As the ignition switch is turned ON, M-ASTC-ECU
drives the valve relay in a series of ON

→OFF→ON

with the initial check in order to inspect the valve
relay for normal operation. It then maintains the valve
relay always at ON and supplies power to each sole-
noid valve.

.

ABS DTC SET CONDITIONS
DTC 52 is set if the M-ASTC-ECU judges that there
is a valve relay OFF problem when the valve relay is
on and power is not supplied to the solenoid valves.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Malfunction of the valve relay

• Malfunction of the M-ASTC-ECU

• Damaged wiring harness or connector

.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable

• MB991911: MUT-III Main Harness B

• MB991223: Harness Set

STEP 1. Check the valve relay.

Q: Is the relay damaged?

YES : Replace it and go to Step 10.
NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the valve relay circuit at M-ASTC-ECU
connector E-119 by backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect connector E-119.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 18 and ground by

backprobing. It should be less than 2V.

Q: Is the voltage less than 2V?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 3. Check the valve relay monitor circuit at
M-ASTC-ECU connector E-120 by backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect connector E-120.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 55 and ground by

backprobing. It should be approximately 12 volts (battery
positive voltage).

Q: Is the voltage approximately 12 volts (battery positive

voltage)?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 4. Check the M-ASTC-ECU connector E-120.
Q: Is the connector damaged?

YES : Repair it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector

Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 10.

NO : Replace the M-ASTC-ECU and go to Step 10.

STEP 5. Check the harness wire between ignition switch
(IG2) connector D-208 terminal 4 and M-ASTC-ECU
connector E-119 terminal 18.
NOTE: After inspecting ignition switch (IG2) connector D-208
and M-ASTC-ECU connector E-119, valve relay connector
B-21X, joint connector D-116, junction block connectors D-208,
D-212 and intermediate connector E-111, inspect the wire. If
ignition switch (IG2) connector D-208 and M-ASTC-ECU con-
nector E-106, valve relay connector B-21X, joint connector
D-116, junction block connectors D-208, D-212 and intermedi-
ate connector E-111 are damaged, repair or replace them.
Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

If the connector has been repaired or replaced, go to Step 10.
