Brakes Caution and Note

CAUTION
!
All brake fasteners are important attaching
parts in that they could affect the
performance of vital parts and systems, and/
or could result in major repair expense. They
must be replaced with one of same part
number or with an equivalent part if
replacement becomes necessary. Do not use
a replacement part of lesser quality or
substitute design. Torque values must be
used as specified during reassembly to
assure proper retention of all parts. There is
to be no welding as it may result in extensive
damage and weakening of the metal.

Electrical Circuit Inspection Procedure

While there are various electrical circuit inspection
methods, described here is a general method to check
its open and short circuit by using an ohmmeter and a
voltmeter.
Open Circuit Check
Possible causes for the open circuit are as follows. As
the cause is in the connector or terminal in many cases,
they need to be checked particularly carefully.
• Loose connection of connector
• Poor contact of terminal (due to dirt, corrosion or rust
on it, poor contact tension, entry of foreign object etc.)
• Wire harness being open
When checking system circuits including an electronic
control unit such as ECM, TCM, ABS control module,
etc., it is important to perform careful check, starting with
items which are easier to check.
1) Disconnect negative cable from battery
2) Check each connector at both ends of the circuit
being checked for loose connection. Also check lock
condition of connector if equipped with connector
lock.
NOTE
S6JB0A0000015
Before inspecting and servicing brakes for
vehicle equipped with ABS (ESP®), make
sure that ABS (ESP®) is in good condition.

Differential Gear Oil Note

NOTE
• When having driven through water, check
immediately if water has entered (if so, oil
is cloudy). Water mixed oil must be
changed at once.
• Whenever vehicle is hoisted for any other
service work than oil change, also be sure
to check for oil leakage and status of
breather hoses.

Repair Instructions

3) Using a test male terminal, check both terminals of
S6JB0A0006001 the circuit being checked for contact tension of its
female terminal. Check each terminal visually for
poor contact (possibly caused by dirt, corrosion, rust
entry of foreign object, etc.). At the same time, check
to make sure that each terminal is locked in the
connector fully.
1. Check contact tension by inserting and removing just for once.
4) Using continuity check or voltage check the following
procedure, check the wire harness for open circuit
and poor connection with its terminals. Locate
abnormality, if any.

1. Looseness of crimping
2. Open
3. Thin wire (single strand of wire)
