ABS Warning Lamp, Slip Indicator Lamp and VDC Off Indicator Lamp Inspection

ABS WARNING LAMP, SLIP INDICATOR LAMP AND VDC OFF INDICATOR LAMP INSPECTION
1. Make sure ABS warning lamp, SLIP indicator lamp and VDC OFF indicator lamp (when VDC OFF switch is off), turn on for approximately 2 seconds when the ignition switch is turned ON. If they do not, check the ABS warning lamp, SLIP indicator lamp and VDC OFF indicator lamp. Check CAN communications. If there are no errors with the CAN communication system, replace combination meter.
2. Make sure the lamps turn off approximately 2 seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON. If the lamp does not turn off, conduct self-diagnosis of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit). If no malfunctions are detected in self-diagnosis, replace combination meter.

NOTE:
^ On 4WD vehicles, when the transfer case is placed in 4LO, the VDC system is disabled and the VDC indicator will turn on.
^ If the battery has been disconnected, the TCS/VDC system is initialized and the SLIP and VDC OFF indicator lamps may not turn off after 2 seconds when the ignition switch is turned ON. In this case, refer to BRC-29, "SELF-DIAGNOSIS". Self-Diagnosis

3. With the engine running, make sure the VDC OFF indicator lamp turns on and off when the VDC OFF switch is turned on and off. If the indicator lamp status does not correspond to switch operation, check the VDC OFF switch. Refer to BRC-50, "VDC OFF SWITCH". VDC Off Switch
4. After conducting the self-diagnosis, be sure to erase the error memory. Refer to BRC-29, "CONSULT-II Function (ABS)". CONSULT-II Function (ABS)
