Do not keep the motor relay on continuously for more than 5 seconds. If it needs to be operated repeatedly, set an interval of more than 20 seconds between operations.

(a) Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/ TRAC / Active Test / Motor Relay.

(b) Turn the motor relay on and check for actuator motor operation noise.

HINT
If the operation noise cannot be heard, replace the brake actuator assembly because the motor operation is abnormal.

(c) Turn the motor relay off.

(d) Fully depress the brake pedal and hold it for approximately 15 seconds. Check that the pedal's initial depth is maintained for the entire 15 seconds.

(e) With the pedal still depressed, turn the motor relay on and check that the pedal does not pulsate.

(f) Turn the motor relay off and release the brake pedal.

Each solenoid operates for 2 seconds and turns off automatically. If it needs to be operated repeatedly, set an interval of more than 20 seconds between operations.

(d) Turn the SFRH and SFRR solenoids off simultaneously, and check that the pedal can be depressed.

(e) With the pedal still depressed, turn the motor relay on and check that the pedal returns.

NOTICE:
Do not keep the motor relay on continuously for more than 5 seconds. If it needs to be operated repeatedly, set an interval of more than 20 seconds between operations.
