After the ignition key is turned to the "ON"
position, it blinks once and then illumi-
nates when it is turned to the "START'
position. When the key is returned to the
"ON" position, the light blinks again.
(Blinking with the ignition key in the "ON"
position is synchronized with operation
noise of the valve relay.)

when starting to drive the car?
Is there one-sided braking, insufficient
braking force or malfunction of ABS op-
eration?
Yes
T r o u b l e c o n d i t i o n
One-sided braking
lnsuff icient braking force
Decline in ABS function
ABS sometimes functions even when
there is no sudden braking. (ABS opera-
tion vibration is transmitted.)
Major causes
Break in harness for ECU warning light
drive circuit
Malfunction of ECU
Trouble with the motor relay, solenoid
valve [due to self test at start-up or
malfunction of wheel speed sensor]

Remedy
Check, using flow
chart D (Refer to
Remedy
Check HU operation and, if
necessary, replace HU. If HU
is normal, check structural
parts for normal braking.
Check wheel speed sensor
(Refer to P.3575.) and, if nec-
essary, replace sensor, adjust
gap or replace rotor.
If tests indicate that there are
no mechanical or electrical
failures, replace the ECU.
