Safety Precautions and Troubleshooting

Safety precautions and fundamental points regarding troubleshooting

Note:
^ The ABS is a vehicle safety system; the appropriate knowledge is necessary to work on the system.
^ In order to check complaints and to be able to carry out pin-pointed troubleshooting, the Diagnostic Trouble Code DTC memory must be checked before commencing work on the ABS system.
^ Only separate connectors when the ignition is switched off.
^ Observe the appropriate instructions regarding the handling of brake fluid.
^ ABS malfunctions are indicated by the ABS warning light illuminating. Certain malfunctions will only be recognized at speeds above 20 km/h (approximately 13 mph) (carry out road test).
^ If the ABS warning light -K47- and the Warning light for brake system -K118- warning lights do not illuminate, but the brake system is not functioning correctly then the malfunction must be sought in the conventional braking system.
