In case of this trouble symptom, ABS system operation may be disabled. Diagnosis code may be set by the ABS system using M.U.T.-III.

PROBABLE CAUSES

  • Low battery voltage
  • Wiring harness or connector failure of CAN bus line
  • The ABS-ECU is defective.
  • Different ETACS-ECU, abnormal variant coding information
