ABS Main Relay: Description and Operation
ABS SYSTEM RELAY

The system relay is used for the operation of the ABS system. Power for the relay is supplied on the B57 circuit from cavity 57 of the controlmodule.
Ground for the relay is on the Z1 circuit. This ground is spliced in with the pump motor, and terminates at the left headlamp ground.

When the system is operating normally, power for the contact side of the relay is supplied from the control module on the B47 circuit. It passesthrough the relay to the Z1 ground and terminates at the left headlamp ground. If a problem is detected in the system, the contact side of the relayswitches from the Z1 to the F18 circuit. This causes the ABS warning lamp in the instrument cluster to illuminate.

Fig 1 Controller Anti-Lock Brake System (CAB)

Fig 2 Controller Anti-Lock System (CAB)

(CAB)

(ABS)

(HCU)

The Controller, Antilock Brake located under the lefthand side of the instrument panel is a microprocessor device which monitors wheel speedand controls Antilock Brake System . The CAB monitors the speed of each wheel through the signals generated at the wheel speed sensors todetermine if any wheel is beginning to lock. If any wheel lock is detected, the CAB commands the Hydraulic Control Unit to modulate pressureto some or all of the hydraulic circuits.

The CAB constantly monitors the ABS system for proper operation. If the CAB detects a fault, it will turn on the ABS warning lamp and disable theABS braking system. The CAB contains a self-diagnostic program which will store system faults in a diagnostic program memory. There are multiplefault messages which may be stored in the CAB memory and can be displayed with a DRB or equivalent scan tool. These faults will remain in the CABmemory even after the ignition has been turned off.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Devices

Electrostatic Discharge Symbol

(ESD)

All Electrostatic Discharge sensitive components are solid state and a symbol is used to indicate this. When handling any component with thissymbol, comply with the following procedures to reduce the possibility of electrostatic charge build-up on the body and inadvertent discharge into thecomponent. If it is not known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume that it is.

1. Always touch a known good ground before handling the part. This should be repeated while handling the part, especially after sliding across a seat,
sitting down from a standing position, or walking a distance.

2. Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part, unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.3. When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the ground lead first.4. Do not remove the part from its protective packing until it is time to install the part.5. Before removing the part from its package, ground the package to a known good ground on the vehicle.

Fasteners

Shock Tower To Spring Minimum Clearance Area

CAUTION:

NO

At no time when servicing a vehicle, can a sheet metal screw, bolt, or other metal fastener be installed in the strut tower to take the place ofan original plastic clip. Also, holes can be drilled into the front strut tower in the area shown in for the installation of any metal fasteners into thestrut tower.

Because of the minimum clearance in this area , installation of metal fasteners could damage the coil spring coating and lead to a corrosion failure of thespring. If a plastic clip is missing, or is lost or broken during servicing of a vehicle, replace it only with the equivalent part listed in the parts catalog.

Fuses

CAUTION:

When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to replace it with a fuse having the correct amperage rating. The use of a fuse with a ratingother than that indicated may result in an electrical overload. If a properly rated fuse continues to blow, it indicates a problem that should be corrected.

Radiator Fan Relay: Diagnostic Aids

Intermittent and Poor Connections

Most intermittent electrical problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. It is also possible for a sticking component or relay to cause aproblem. Before condemning a component or wiring assembly check the following items.

- Connectors are fully seated

- Spread terminals, or terminal push out

- Terminals in the wiring assembly are fully seated into the connector/component and locked in position

- Dirt or corrosion on the terminals. Any amount of corrosion or dirt could cause an intermittent problem

- Damaged connector/component casing exposing the item to dirt and moisture

- Wire insulation that has rubbed through causing a short to ground

- Some or all of the wiring strands broken inside of the insulation covering.

- Wiring broken inside of the insulation

When diagnosing a problem in an electrical circuit, there are several common tools necessary. These tools are listed and explained below.

- - This is a test wire used to connect two points of a circuit. It can be used to bypass an open in a circuit.Jumper Wire

WARNING: NEVER USE A JUMPER WIRE ACROSS A LOAD, SUCH AS A MOTOR, CONNECTED BETWEEN A BATTERYFEED AND GROUND.

- Voltmeter

- This instrument is used to check for voltage on a circuit. Always connect the black lead to a known good ground and the red lead tothe positive side of the circuit.

CAUTION:

Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicle are solid state. When checking voltages in these circuits, use a meter with a or greater impedance.10 megohm

- Ohmmeter

- This instrument is used to check the resistance between two points of a circuit. Low or no resistance in a circuit can mean goodcontinuity or a shorted circuit.

CAUTION:

10 megohm

Most of the electrical components used in today's vehicle are solid state. When checking resistance in these circuits, use a meter witha or greater impedance. In addition, be sure the power is disconnected from the circuit. Circuits that are powered-up by the vehicleelectrical system can cause damage to the equipment and provide false readings.

Probing Tool

- Probing Tools 6807

- These tools are used for probing terminals in connectors. Select the proper size tool from Special Tool Package and insert itinto the terminal being tested. Use the other end of the tool to insert the meter probe.

Troubleshooting Wiring Problems

When troubleshooting wiring problems there are six steps which can aid in the procedure. The steps are listed and explained below. Always check fornon-factory items added to the vehicle before doing any diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items, disconnect them to verify these add-onitems are not the cause of the problem.

1. Verify the problem.

2. Verify any related symptoms. Do this by performing operational checks on components that are in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.

3. Analyze the symptoms. Use the wiring diagrams to determine what the circuit is doing, where the problem most likely is occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.

4. Isolate the problem area.

5. Repair the problem.

6. Verify proper operation. For this step check for proper operation of all items on the repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.
