STEP 10. Check whether the DTC is reset.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Drive the vehicle at 12 mph (20 km/h) or higher.

NOTE: The ABS warning light does not turn OFF in some
cases unless the vehicle runs at 12 mph (20 km/h) or
higher.

Q: Is DTC C1014 set?

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

DTC C101F Mutual monitoring of FR wheel speed sensor

CAUTION

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

rect DTC may be set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose
the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C

− CAN Bus

Line Diagnostic Flow

P.54C-10

• Whenever ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus

lines are normal.

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

replaced, always carry out the calibration of the steer-
ing wheel sensor, the G and yaw rate sensor and brake
fluid pressure sensor (Refer to

P.35C-282

P.35C-283

and

P.35C-284

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.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

ASC-ECU monitors the signals from each wheel speed sensor
while the vehicle is being driven. If any fault below is found in
these sensor signals, ASC-ECU will set the relevant DTC.

• Missing wheel speed sensor signal

• Wheel speed sensor signal continuously indicates low

value.

PROBABLE CAUSES

Current trouble

• Excessive gap between the wheel speed sensor and the

wheel speed detection encoder

DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

ACTIVE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM (ASC)

35C-68

• Wheel bearing malfunction

• Deformation of the wheel speed detection encoder

• Adhesion of foreign materials on the wheel speed sensor

• Adhesion of foreign materials on the wheel speed detection

encoder

• Malfunction of wheel speed sensor

• Improper installation of the wheel speed sensor

• ASC-ECU malfunction

• The number of poles on the Magnetic encoder for wheel

speed detection (N-pole and S-pole) is changed

Past trouble

• When DTC C1015 is also set, carry out diagnosis with par-

ticular emphasis on wiring harness and connector failures
between ASC-ECU and the wheel speed sensor. For diag-
nosis procedures, refer to How to treat past trouble (Refer
to GROUP 00

− How to Use Troubleshooting/How to Treat

Past Trouble

P.00-17

• When DTC C1015 is not set, the following conditions may

be present:

• Some wheels slip

• Unstable vehicle attitude

• External noise interference

• Vehicle ran with the parking brake applied.

• Rotate only two wheels with drum tester

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

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

• MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable

• MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus
lines.
Use scan tool to diagnose the CAN bus lines.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C

−

CAN Bus Diagnostics Table

P.54C-17

). On

completion, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. DTC recheck after resetting CAN bus lines
Q: Is DTC C101F set?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : The procedure is complete.

STEP 3. Using scan tool MB991958, check the DTC
Check that DTC C1015 is also set.
Q: Is DTC C1015 also set?

YES : Perform the diagnosis for DTC C1015 (Refer to

P.35C-26

NO : Go to Step 4.

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 4. Check for wheel speed sensor <FR> installation
Check how the wheel speed sensor <FR> is installed (Discon-
nection of wheel speed sensor <FR>, loose mounting bolt,
etc.).
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Reinstall the wheel speed sensor <FR> correctly

(Refer to

P.35C-288

). Then go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Check for wheel speed sensor <FR> output
current
Refer to

P.35C-277

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Replace the wheel speed sensor <FR> (Refer to

P.35C-288

). Then go to Step 9.

STEP 6. Check for wheel bearing looseness
NOTE:

•

Loose wheel bearing may increase the gap between the
wheel speed sensor <FR> and the wheel speed detection
magnet encoder.

•

Check the wheel bearing <FR> for looseness (Refer to
GROUP 26

−

Wheel Bearing Play Check

P.26-11

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Replace the wheel bearing <FR> (Refer to GROUP

− Front axle hub assembly

P.26-18

). Then go to

Step 10.

STEP 7. Check of wheel speed detection encoder
Check the encoder for adhesion of foreign materials or defor-
mation.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO (Adhesion of foreign materials) : Remove the foreign

materials and clean the encoder so as not to disturb
the magnetization pattern on it while taking care of the
magnet, magnetic substance, and magnetic
attraction. Then go to Step 10.

NO (Deformation) : Replace the wheel bearing <FR>

(Refer to GROUP 26

− Front axle hub assembly

P.26-18

). Then go to Step 10.
