Fail Safe System
Fail-SafeABS SYSTEM
If a malfunction occurs in electrical system, ABS warning lamp, VDC OFF indicator lamp, and SLIP indicator lamp in combination meter turn ON. In this condition, the fail-safe function puts VDC/TCS/ABS and electronic brake force distribution (EBD) into one of the following conditions.
1. Only EBD operates. Same condition as that of models without VDC/TCS/ABS.
2. VDC/TCS/ABS and EBD do not operate. A114 wheels operate as normal brakes.
NOTE: In step 1 shown above, self-diagnosis when ignition switch is turned ON and when vehicle starts at initial time is carried out. ABS self-diagnosis noise may be heard as usual.
VDC/TCS SYSTEM
If a malfunction occurs in electrical system, VDC OFF indicator lamp and SLIP indicator lamp in combination meter turn on. In this condition, VDC/TCS will be deactivated and it becomes equal to that of models without VDC/TCS. However, ABS is controlled normally. If a malfunction occurs in engine control system, VDC/TCS control will be deactivated and only ABS control will operate normally.
CAUTION: If fail-safe mode is initiated, carry out self-diagnosis for VDC/TCS/ABS control system.
CAUTION: When installing parts, avoid twist and fracture conditions.
Make sure there is no interference with other parts when turning steering both clockwise and counterclockwise.
Brake system is an important safety part. If a brake fluid leak is detected, always disassemble the affected part. If a malfunction is detected, replace it with a new one.
