HYDRAULIC BRAKE BOOSTER (HBB) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM

35A-31

STEP 8. Check the following harness wires.

• The wire between HBB connector B-17 (terminal 4) and

M-ASTC-ECU connector E-119 (terminal 25)

• The wire between HBB connector B-17 (terminal 6) and

M-ASTC-ECU connector E-119 (terminal 12)

• The wire between HBB connector B-17 (terminal 8) and

M-ASTC-ECU connector E-119 (terminal 14)

Q: Is any harness wire damaged?

YES : Repair it and then go to Step 10.
NO : Go to Step 9.

STEP 9. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
(1) Erase the DTC memory.
(2) Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Q: Is DTC 53 set?

YES : Replace the M-ASTC-ECU (Refer to GROUP 35C,

M-ASTC-ECU

P.35C-213

). Then go to Step 10.

NO : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The motor relay A and the motor relay B are con-

trolled by the M-ASTC-ECU.

• If the brake fluid pressure in the hydraulic brake

booster (HBB) becomes low, the M-ASTC-ECU
outputs the motor relay actuating signal to the
motor relay A and the motor relay B and then the
pump motor operates.

• The M-ASTC-ECU monitors the pump motor (at

25 terminal).

.

HBB DTC SET CONDITION
DTC 54 is set if the motor relay circuit is open or
short, the motor relay A or the motor relay B is defec-
tive, or the internal circuit of the M-ASTC-ECU is
defective.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Malfunction of the motor relay A or the motor

relay B

• Damaged wiring harness or connector

• Malfunction of the M-ASTC-ECU

.
