STEP 2. Check the active skid control switch continuity.

(1) Remove the active skid control switch (Refer to

P.35A-136

).

(2) Connect an ohmmeter between to active skid control switch

connector terminals.

Q: Is the active skid control switch in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Replace the active skid control switch, and then go to

Step 9.

STEP 3. Check the ground to the active skid control
switch. Measure the resistance at active skid control
switch connector E-125.

(1) Disconnect active skid control switch connector E-125, and

measure the resistance at the harness-side connector.

(2) Measure the resistance between active skid control switch

connector E-125 terminal 3 and body ground.

• The resistance should measure 2 ohms or less.

Q: Does the resistance measure 2 ohms or less?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check the wiring harness between active skid
control switch connector E-125 terminal 3 and the body
ground.
NOTE: Also check intermediate connector E-06 for loose, cor-
roded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector. If intermediate connector E-06 is damaged, repair or
replace the damaged component(s) as described in GROUP
00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. If the connector

has been repaired or replaced, go to STEP 9.
Q: Is the wiring harness between active skid control switch

connector E-125 terminal 3 and the body ground in
good condition?
YES : Go to Step 9.
NO : Repair the wiring harness, and then go to Step 9.

STEP 5. Check the wiring harness between M-ASTC-ECU
connector E-121 terminal 78 and the body ground.
NOTE: Also check intermediate connector E-06 and E-122 for
loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed
back in connectors. If intermediate connector E-06 or E-122 is
damaged, repair or replace the damaged component(s) as
described in GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

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

STEP 9.
Q: Is the wiring harness between M-ASTC-ECU connector
