Check the Signal to the Control Module [W]
W. Check the signal to the control moduleWA. Fault-tracing information
Condition
- DTCs not posted.
- Normal battery voltage.
- The charging system works.
- Fault is permanent.
Possible source
- Signal cable break.
- Signal cable short circuited to power.
Fault-tracing begins with WB Check the signal to the control module.
WB. Check the signal to the control module
[WB1]
Connecting the test box
Connect the test box as per JJJA. Connect the test box. Pinout Values and Diagnostic Parameters
Then proceed to [WB2]
[WB2]
Check the signal cable short circuiting to power
- Ignition off.
- Uncover the instrument panel.
- Disconnect instrument panel connection B.
- Control module disconnected.
- Ignition on.
Connect a voltmeter between #16 and #8 on the test box.
The voltmeter should indicate approx. 0V.
If reading is OK: WB4
If reading Is incorrect: WB3
[WB3]
Check for short circuiting
Check the cable between instrument panel contact connection B6 and control module #16 for short circuiting to current as per [IIIB4]. Check Communication to Control Module [III]
Then continue with: WB6
[WB4]
Check the signal cable resistance
- Ignition off.
- Control module disconnected.
Connect an ohmmeter between instrument panel contact connection B6 and #16 on the test box.
The ohmmeter should indicate approx. 0 ohms
If reading Is OK: Fault not found
If reading is incorrect: WB5
[WB5]
Check for cable breaks
Check the cable between combination instrument contact connection B6 and control module #16 for breaks as per [IIIB2]. Check Communication to Control Module [III]
Then continue with: WB6
[WB6]
Verification
Hint: After repair, it is necessary to check that the fault has been rectified.
- Ignition off.
- Reconnect the connections, components etc.
- Ignition on
When the ignition is switched on, the ABS warning light is activated by the control module. Check that the warning light goes out after approx. 2 seconds.
Note! The warning light will not go out if a fault is registered in the control module.
Does the warning light go out shortly after being activated?
Yes: Fault corrected
No: WB7
[WB7]
Fault-tracing information
The fault should now have been diagnosed and corrected. Since this is not the case the fault-tracing has failed.
Do you want to exit fault-tracing?
Yes: Fault not corrected
No: WB2
