CAUTION
• If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incor-
rect diagnostic trouble code may be set. Prior to this
diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
• Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN
bus lines are normal.
• When the hydraulic unit (integrated with ASC-ECU) is
replaced, always perform the calibration of steering
wheel sensor, G and yaw rate sensor, brake fluid pres-
sure sensor, cut valve, and inlet valve.(Refer to
P.35C-266, P.35C-267, P.35C-268, and P.35C-269.)
.
CIRCUIT 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.

CIRCUIT 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.

CIRCUIT 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.

CAUTION
• ABS may operate in the following conditions without hard braking: Low µ road surface,
high-speed turn, and bumpy road surface. When asking the customers, confirm if they have
encountered ABS operation in corresponding conditions.
• Even when the ASC operation display does not appear, the ASC operation noise (pump, motor,
and others) may be generated. This occurs because the pump, motor, and others operate to accu-
mulate the braking force before the application of braking force to wheels, and it is not a malfunc-
tion.
• During ABS operation, as the brake pedal is gradually drawn inward, the noise is generated. This
occurs because the brake line pressure varies intermittently to prevent the wheel lock, and it is
not a malfunction.
CAUTION
During diagnosis, a DTC associated with other system may be set when the ignition switch is turned
ON with connector(s) disconnected. On completion, confirm all systems for diagnostic trouble
code(s). If diagnostic trouble code(s) are set, erase them all.

WARNING
If the ASC is not operating, the vehicle will be unsta-
ble during braking, Do not drive the vehicle with the
ASC-ECU connector disconnected or with the ASC
not operating.
If the engine is started using a booster cable when the battery
is completely flat, and the vehicle is then driven without waiting
for the battery to be recharged, the engine may misfire and it
may not be possible to drive the vehicle. This is because the
ASC consumes a large amount of current when carrying out its
initial checks. If this happens, recharge the battery fully.
