Continuous Test







This test is intended as an aid in diagnosing intermittent failures in the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). It is identical to the KOER Test, but also allows the technician to enter this mode of the test and to attempt to recreate the intermittent failure by tapping, moving, and wiggling the harness and/or suspected sensor. Faults will be indicated by diagnostic trouble codes using a Rotunda 73 Digital Multimeter 105-00051 or equivalent, Rotunda Super STAR II Tester 007-0041B, or Rotunda New Generation Star (NGS) Tester 007-00500. With the knowledge of the affected circuits, a close check of the harness and associated connectors can be made.

When directed to a Pinpoint Test, look carefully at the schematic. Any time a repair is made, erase the anti-lock brake control module memory and repeat the Quick Test to ensure that the repair was effective. If all phases of the Quick Test result in a pass, it is likely that the problem is non-electronic related.
