- 1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
- 2. Check the following fuse.
Fuse No. B24 (7.5 A) Location Under-dash fuse/relay box Is the fuse OK?
YES
The fuse is OK. Reinstall the fuse, then go to step 3.
NO
Replace the fuse. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode, then the OFF (LOCK) mode. If the fuse blows again, repair the short to ground on the No. B24 (7.5 A) fuse circuit.
- 3. Fuse check 2:
- 1. Check the following fuse.
Fuse No. A1-3 (20 A) Location Under-hood fuse/relay box Is the fuse OK?
YES
The fuse is OK. Reinstall the fuse, then go to step 4.
NO
Replace the fuse. If the fuse blows again, repair the short to ground on the No. A1-3 (20 A) fuse circuit.
- 4. Fuse check 3:
- 1. Check the following fuse.
Fuse No. A9 (7.5 A) Location Under-hood fuse/relay box Is the fuse OK?
YES
The fuse is OK. Reinstall the fuse, then go to step 5.
NO
Replace the fuse. If the fuse blows again, repair the short to ground on the No. A9 (7.5 A) fuse circuit.
- 5. Gauge control module operation check:
- 1. Do the gauge control module self-diagnostic function .
Is the gauge control module OK?
YES
Go to step 6.
NO
- 6. Open wire check (IG1 ABS/VSA line):
- 1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
- 2. Disconnect the following connector.
VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector - 3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.
- 4. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition Vehicle ON mode VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector: disconnected Test point 1 VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector No. 36 Test point 2 Body ground Is there battery voltage?
YES
The IG1 ABS/VSA wire is OK. Go to step 7.
NO
Repair an open in the wire between the No. B24 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box and the VSA modulator-control unit.
- 7. Open wire check (GND line):
- 1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
- 2. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector: disconnected Test point 1 VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector No. 3 Test point 2 Body ground Is there continuity?
YES
The GND wire is OK. Go to step 8.
NO
Repair an open in the wire between the VSA modulator-control unit and body ground (G201).
- 8. Open wire check (+B ABS/VSA FSR line):
- 1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector: disconnected Test point 1 VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector No. 4 Test point 2 Body ground Is there battery voltage?
YES
The +B ABS/VSA FSR wire is OK. Go to step 9.
NO
Repair an open in the wire between the No. A1-3 (20 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box and the VSA modulator-control unit.
- 9. Open wire check (+B UB ECU line):
- 1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector: disconnected Test point 1 VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector No. 10 Test point 2 Body ground Is there battery voltage?
YES
The +B UB ECU wire is OK. Go to step 10.
NO
Repair an open in the wire between the No. A9 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box and the VSA modulator-control unit.
- 10.Open wire check (F-CAN_L, F-CAN_H lines):
- 1. Disconnect the following connector.
Gauge control module connector A (32P) - 2. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector: disconnected Gauge control module connector A (32P): disconnected Test point 1 VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector No. 26 Test point 2 Gauge control module connector A (32P) No. 20 Test point 1 VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector No. 38 Test point 2 Gauge control module connector A (32P) No. 19 Is there continuity?
YES
The F-CAN_L and F-CAN_H wires are OK. Go to step 11.
NO
Repair an open in the wire between the gauge control module and the VSA modulator-control unit.
- 11.VSA modulator-control unit check (update):
- 1. Reconnect the following connectors.
VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector Gauge control module connector A (32P) - 2. Update the VSA modulator-control unit if it does not have the latest software .
- 3. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode, then the ON mode.
- 4. Check the ABS indicator, the brake system indicator (red), brake system indicator (amber), and the VSA indicator for several seconds when you turn the vehicle to the ON mode.
Do the indicators come on then go off?
YES
Troubleshooting is complete.
NO
Check for loose terminals and poor connections in the VSA modulator-control unit 38P connector. If the VSA modulator-control unit was updated and the symptom/indication is still present, replace the VSA modulator-control unit .
