ASBESTOS FIBER WARNING
The following procedures for servicing brakes are recommended to reduce
NON-ASBESTOS FIBER WARNING
exposure to asbestos fiber dust, a cancer and lung disease hazard. Material Safety Data Sheets are available from WABCO.
Hazard Summary
Because some brake linings contain asbestos, workers who service brakes must understand the potential hazards of asbestos and precautions for reducing risks. Exposure to airborne asbestos dust can cause serious and possibly fatal diseases, including asbestosis (a chronic lung disease) and cancer, principally lung cancer and mesothelioma (a cancer of the lining of the chest or abdominal cavities). Some studies show that the risk of lung cancer among persons who smoke and who are exposed to asbestos is much greater than the risk for non-smokers. Symptoms of these diseases may not become apparent for 15, 20 or more years after the first exposure to asbestos.
Accordingly, workers must use caution to avoid creating and breathing dust when servicing brakes. Specific recommended work practices for reducing exposure to asbestos dust follow. Consult your employer for more details.
Recommended Work Practices
1. Separate Work Areas. Whenever feasible, service brakes in a separate area away
from other operations to reduce risks to unprotected persons. OSHA has set a maximum allowable level of exposure for asbestos of 0.1 f/cc as an 8-hour time-weighted average and 1.0 f/cc averaged over a 30-minute period. Scientists disagree, however, to what extent adherence to the maximum allowable exposure levels will eliminate the risk of disease that can result from inhaling asbestos dust. OSHA requires that the following sign be posted at the entrance to areas where exposures exceed either of the maximum allowable levels:
DANGER: ASBESTOS
CANCER AND LUNG DISEASE HAZARD
AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY
RESPIRATORS AND PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
ARE REQUIRED IN THIS AREA
2. Respiratory Protection. Wear a respirator equipped with a high-efficiency (HEPA)
filter approved by NIOSH or MSHA for use with asbestos at all times when servicing brakes, beginning with the removal of the wheels.
3. Procedures for Servicing Brakes.
a. Enclose the brake assembly within a negative pressure enclosure. The
enclosure should be equipped with a HEPA vacuum and worker arm sleeves. With the enclosure in place, use the HEPA vacuum to loosen and vacuum residue from the brake parts.
b. As an alternative procedure, use a catch basin with water and a biodegradable,
non-phosphate, water-based detergent to wash the brake drum or rotor and other brake parts. The solution should be applied with low pressure to prevent dust from becoming airborne. Allow the solution to flow between the brake drum and the brake support or the brake rotor and caliper. The wheel hub and brake assembly components should be thoroughly wetted to suppress dust before the brake shoes or brake pads are removed. Wipe the brake parts clean with a cloth.
c. If an enclosed vacuum system or brake washing equipment is not available,
employers may adopt their own written procedures for servicing brakes, provided that the exposure levels associated with the employer's procedures do not exceed the levels associated with the enclosed vacuum system or brake washing equipment. Consult OSHA regulations for more details.
d. Wear a respirator equipped with a HEPA filter approved by NIOSH or MSHA for
use with asbestos when grinding or machining brake linings. In addition, do such work in an area with a local exhaust ventilation system equipped with a HEPA filter.
e. NEVER use compressed air by itself, dry brushing, or a vacuum not equipped
with a HEPA filter when cleaning brake parts or assemblies. NEVER use carcinogenic solvents, flammable solvents, or solvents that can damage brake components as wetting agents.
4. Cleaning Work Areas. Clean work areas with a vacuum equipped with a HEPA filter or by wet wiping. NEVER use compressed air or dry sweeping to clean work areas. When you empty vacuum cleaners and handle used rags, wear a respirator equipped with a HEPA filter approved by NIOSH or MSHA for use with asbestos. When you replace a HEPA filter, wet the filter with a fine mist of water and dispose of the used filter with care.
5. Worker Clean-Up. After servicing brakes, wash your hands before you eat, drink or smoke. Shower after work. Do not wear work clothes home. Use a vacuum equipped with a HEPA filter to vacuum work clothes after they are worn. Launder them separately. Do not shake or use compressed air to remove dust from work clothes.
6. Waste Disposal. Dispose of discarded linings, used rags, cloths and HEPA filters with care, such as in sealed plastic bags. Consult applicable EPA, state and local regulations on waste disposal.
Regulatory Guidance
References to OSHA, NIOSH, MSHA, and EPA, which are regulatory agencies in the United States, are made to provide further guidance to employers and workers employed within the United States. Employers and workers employed outside of the United States should consult the regulations that apply to them for further guidance.
The following procedures for servicing brakes are recommended to reduce exposure to non-asbestos fiber dust, a cancer and lung disease hazard. Material Safety Data Sheets are available from WABCO.
Hazard Summary
Most recently manufactured brake linings do not contain asbestos fibers. These brake linings may contain one or more of a variety of ingredients, including glass fibers, mineral wool, aramid fibers, ceramic fibers and silica that can present health risks if inhaled. Scientists disagree on the extent of the risks from exposure to these substances. Nonetheless, exposure to silica dust can cause silicosis, a non-cancerous lung disease. Silicosis gradually reduces lung capacity and efficiency and can result in serious breathing difficulty. Some medical experts believe other types of non-asbestos fibers, when inhaled, can cause similar diseases of the lung. In addition, silica dust and ceramic fiber dust are known to the State of California to cause lung cancer. U.S. and international agencies have also determined that dust from mineral wool, ceramic fibers and silica are potential causes of cancer.
Accordingly, workers must use caution to avoid creating and breathing dust when servicing brakes. Specific recommended work practices for reducing exposure to non-asbestos dust follow. Consult your employer for more details.
Recommended Work Practices
1. Separate Work Areas. Whenever feasible, service brakes in a separate area away from other operations to reduce risks to unprotected persons.
2. Respiratory Protection. OSHA has set a maximum allowable level of exposure for silica of 0.1 mg/m asbestos brake linings recommend that exposures to other ingredients found in non­asbestos brake linings be kept below 1.0 f/cc as an 8-hour time-weighted average. Scientists disagree, however, to what extent adherence to these maximum allowable exposure levels will eliminate the risk of disease that can result from inhaling non­asbestos dust.
Therefore, wear respiratory protection at all times during brake servicing, beginning with the removal of the wheels. Wear a respirator equipped with a high-efficiency (HEPA) filter approved by NIOSH or MSHA, if the exposure levels may exceed OSHA or manufacturers' recommended maximum levels. Even when exposures are expected to be within the maximum allowable levels, wearing such a respirator at all times during brake servicing will help minimize exposure.

When you empty vacuum cleaners and handle used rags, wear a respirator equipped with a HEPA filter approved by NIOSH or MSHA, if the exposure levels may exceed OSHA or manufacturers' recommended maximum levels. When you replace a HEPA filter, wet the filter with a fine mist of water and dispose of the used filter with care.

What Is WABCO’s Easy-Stop™ Trailer ABS?
WABCO’s Easy-Stop™ Trailer ABS is an electronic, self-monitoring system that works with standard air brakes. The major components of the system are the Electronic Control Unit
(ECU)/Valve Assembly, ABS relay (modulator) valve, tooth wheel and wheel speed sensor.
Refer to Figure 1.2 .
ECU Part Numbers 472 500 001 0, 472 500 012 0 and 472 500 013 0 have an external diagnostics connector for use with a special diagnostic tool. These models are also compatible with an MPSI Pro-Link cartridge. ECU/Valve Assembly 472 500 011 0 does not have a diagnostic connector port. Diagnostic procedures for all of these ECUs are detailed in Section 5, "Diagnostics" of this manual.

The ABS configuration defines the number of wheel speed sensors and ABS relay valves used in a system. For example, a 2S/1M configuration includes two wheel sensors and one ABS relay valve. A 2S/2M configuration includes two wheel sensors and two relay valves. A 4S/2M configuration includes four wheel sensors and two ABS relay valves.
How Trailer ABS Works
WABCO ABS is an electronic system that monitors and controls wheel speed during braking. The system works with standard air brake systems.
ABS monitors wheel speeds at all times and controls braking during wheel lock situations. The system improves vehicle stability and control by reducing wheel lock during braking.
The ECU receives and processes signals from the wheel speed sensors. When the ECU detects a wheel lockup, the unit activates the appropriate modulator valve, and air pressure is controlled.
In the event of a malfunction in the system, the ABS in the affected wheel(s) is disabled; that wheel still has normal brakes. The other wheels keep the ABS function.
An ABS warning lamp lets drivers know the status of the system.

ABS Questions and Answers
The ABS Warning Lamp
What is the function of the warning lamp?
How do you activate the ECU?
In a constant-powered system, the ECU activates and then begins a self-diagnostic check of the system when you turn the ignition ON. In a stoplight-powered system, the ECU activates when you apply the brakes. All trailers manufactured on or after March 1, 1998 will be equipped with ABS that has constant power capability with stoplight power as back-up.
What if the ECU finds a fault in an ABS component during normal operation?
If the ECU senses a fault in the system (with an ABS valve, for example), the ECU turns the trailer ABS warning lamp on and returns the wheel controlled by that valve to standard braking. Or, if the ECU finds a fault with one wheel speed sensor in a system that has four sensors on a tandem axle, the ECU uses information from the other sensor on the same side of the tandem to ensure continuous ABS function. The ECU continues to provide full ABS function to the wheels unaffected by system faults. However, the ECU will turn the trailer ABS warning lamp on to tell the driver a fault has been detected in the system.
How does the ECU respond to a wheel approaching lock-up?
The ECU directs the ABS relay valve to function as a modulator valve and adjust air pressure to the chambers up to five times a second. This pressure adjustment allows a wheel (or wheels) to rotate without locking.
The warning lamp enables a driver to monitor the ABS at all times. Refer to the OEM operating manual for the mounting location of the warning lamp.
How does the warning lamp operate?
How the warning lamp operates depends on whether the ABS is powered by stoplight or constant power:
If the trailer was manufactured prior to February
28, 1998, or was manufactured outside of the United States, the ABS may be either stoplight or constant powered.
If the trailer was manufactured March 1, 1998 or
later — and was manufactured in the United States — it will have constant power capability. This is mandated by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 121.
Check your vehicle specification sheet to determine the type of ABS power. Ta b le B — Stoplight Power and Table C — Constant Power, in this section, illustrate warning lamp operation on stoplight and constant powered ABS systems.

An ECU with part number 472 500 001 0 manufactured prior to September 1997 requires all sensed wheels to detect a 4 mph signal to shut off the ABS warning lamp. Do not confuse this with a faulty ABS system. If the warning lamp stays on when the brakes are applied to a moving vehicle, service the ABS system.
Most trailers manufactured prior to February 1998 require that the brakes be applied to operate the ABS warning lamp. If the warning lamp stays on when the brakes are applied to a moving vehicle, service the ABS system.
What does the trailer ABS warning lamp mean to service personnel?
The trailer ABS warning lamp indicates the status of the trailer ABS. If it comes ON and stays ON when you apply the brakes to a moving vehicle, there is an ABS malfunction. It is normal for the lamp to come ON and go OFF to perform a bulb check, but it should not stay ON when the vehicle is moving above 4 mph. As with any safety system, it is important not to ignore this warning. If the warning lamp indicates a malfunction, the vehicle can be operated to complete the trip, but it is important to have it serviced as soon as possible using the appropriate maintenance manual to ensure proper braking performance and that the
benefits of ABS remain available to your drivers. Typical ABS warning lamp mounting locations are illustrated in Figure 3.1 .

ABS Questions and Answers
NOTE
Can you continue to operate a vehicle when the warning lamp indicates a fault?
Yes. When a fault exists in the ABS, standard braking returns to the affected wheel, and the ABS still controls other monitored wheels. This lets you complete the trip. You should not ignore the warning lamp and should have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible after the lamp comes ON and stays ON.
Types of Faults
What is a “fault” in the system?
A fault in the system is a problem that can exist in the ABS or in the system’s components. Faults can be either existing faults or intermittent stored faults.
What is an existing fault?
An existing fault is a problem that exists currently in the system. For example, a damaged sensor cable is an existing fault that the ECU will detect and store into memory until you identify the cause, repair the cable and clear the fault from the ECU.
Section 3
What is an intermittent fault?
An intermittent fault is a problem that usually occurs only under certain driving conditions. For example, the ECU may detect a loose cable or wire or receive an erratic signal from a wheel sensor. Since intermittent faults can be unpredictable and may only happen periodically, you can use information stored in ECU memory to find and correct the loose cable or wire.
Is an intermittent fault difficult to locate and repair?
It can be, because you may not be able to easily see the cause of the problem. WABCO recommends that you write down intermittent faults to help you isolate a fault that recurs over a period of time.
Can the ECU store more than one fault in memory?
Yes. And the ECU retains existing and intermittent faults in memory even when you turn OFF the power to the ECU.

Diagnostics
Using the Blink Code
For ECU Part Number 472 500 011 0 without diagnostic connector:
1. Make sure the vehicle is stationary:
Emergency brake ON
Wheels properly chocked
2. Provide 12 volts DC power (9.5 to 14 volts is acceptable range) to the ECU/Valve Assembly.
3. Check the ABS warning lamp on the trailer. If:
The warning lamp comes ON briefly, then
goes OFF: There is no fault in system.
The warning lamp comes ON and stays ON:
There is an existing fault. Go to Step 4.
4. Check the blink code lamp on the ECU. See Figure 5.1 .
If blink code lamp is OFF, there is no
system fault.
If the blink code lamp is flashing, count the
number of flashes to identify the fault. Check
Table D — ECU Part Number 472 500 011 0 Blink Codes to determine the problem.
Follow the suggested corrective action.

How to Test for Existing Faults Using the Normal Mode
When you use Normal Mode diagnostics, the blink code lamp displays a numerical fault code sequence for each existing fault, one at a time. If the ECU stores more than one existing fault in memory, you must repair the first fault before Normal Mode diagnostics will display the second existing fault. In the Normal Mode, the lamp only identifies the component that needs repair; for example, THREE FLASHES = SENSOR BU1. To identify and display intermittent faults, use Expert Mode diagnostics. (See Appendix A.)
The ECU stores existing faults into memory in the order in which they occur, but the blink code lamp displays the most recent fault first. To identify and display intermittent stored faults (such as a loose cable or wire) from ECU memory, you must use Expert Mode diagnostics.
To activate Normal Mode diagnostics:
1. The vehicle must be stationary. Power the ECU with 12 volts DC (9.5–14 is an acceptable range). The warning lamp on the trailer will come ON.
2. Locate the diagnostic tool: Plug the diagnostic tool into the diagnostic cable socket located usually on the right side of the trailer sub-frame.
Figure 5.4
1 Blink Code Switch 2 LED Lamp
6. When there are existing faults: You must repair
existing faults.
7. After you identify an existing fault, turn the
power to the ECU OFF. Repair the fault. Turn the power to the ECU back ON.
8. ECU Part Number 472 500 001 0: Repeat
Steps 3, 5, 6, and 7 until the blink code lamp goes OFF, comes back ON and remains ON. This sequence signals that there are no other existing faults.
ECU Part Numbers 472 500 012 0 and 472 500 013 0: Repeat Step 3. If there are no
other existing faults in the system, the blink code lamp will come ON, go remain OFF.
9. If you have just repaired a sensor fault, the ECU is “waiting” to see a 4-mph signal on sensed wheels. Until this 4 mph is sensed by the ECU, the ABS warning lamp on the trailer will remain ON.

Diagnostics
Repair Existing Faults
With Normal Mode diagnostics, you must repair
an existing fault before you can identify and repair the next existing fault stored in ECU memory. Follow these steps:
Turn off the power to the ECU.
Repair the fault.
Repeat Normal Mode diagnostics.
Clear stored faults (if necessary).
How to Clear Repaired Faults from the ECU
1. Power the ECU with 12 volts DC (9.5–14.0 is an acceptable range).
2. To clear repaired faults from ECU memory, press the blink code lamp switch three times for one second each time as follows:
a. Depress the blink code lamp switch once
for one second. The lamp will come ON.
b. Release the switch for one second. The
lamp will go OFF.
c. Immediately depress the switch once for
one second. The blink code lamp will come back ON.
d. Immediately release the switch once
for one second. The blink code lamp will go OFF.
e. Immediately depress the switch once for
one second. The blink code lamp will come back ON.
f. Release the switch.
g. The blink code lamp will flash rapidly for
eight times to indicate that the repaired faults have been erased from ECU memory.
h. The lamp will continue to flash the
system configuration until you turn OFF the power to the ECU. System configuration codes are:
– 2 Flashes = 4S/3M
– 3 Flashes = 4S/2M
– 4 Flashes = 2S/2M
– 5 Flashes = 2S/1M

WARNINGS
To prevent serious eye injury, always wear safe eye protection when you perform vehicle maintenance or service.
Block the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving. Support the vehicle with safety stands. Do not work under a vehicle supported only by jacks. Jacks can slip and fall over. Serious personal injury can result.
The ABS is an electrical system. When you work on the ABS, take the same precautions that you must take with any electrical system to avoid serious personal injury. As with any electrical system, the danger of electrical shock or sparks exists that can ignite flammable substances. You must always disconnect the battery ground cable before working on the electrical system.
Disconnect power from the ECU/Valve Assembly before you remove any components. Failure to disconnect power from the ECU can cause faults to be recorded and stored in ECU memory.
1. Apply a mineral oil-based grease that contains molydisulfide to the sensor spring clip and to the body of the sensor. The grease must be anti-corrosive and contain adhesive properties that will continuously endure temperatures from –40° to 300°F (–40° to 150°C).
2. Push the spring clip into the sensor holder from the inboard side, until the spring clip tabs are against the sensor holder. Push the sensor into the spring clip as far as possible. Refer to
Figure 6.1 .
Figure 6.1
Use the following procedures to avoid damage to the electrical system and ABS components.
When welding on an ABS-equipped vehicle is necessary, disconnect the power connector from the ECU.
Wheel Speed Sensor
How to Remove a Sensor
1. Follow the vehicle manufacturer's instructions to back off the slack adjuster and remove the tire, wheel and drum.
2. Hold the sensor, not the cable, and use a twisting motion to pull the sensor out of its mounting block.
3. Remove the spring clip from the mounting block.
4. Remove any fasteners that hold the sensor cable to other components.
5. Disconnect the sensor cable from the extension cable.

4. Install the wheel hub carefully, so that the tooth wheel pushes against the sensor as you adjust the wheel bearings. After installation there should be no gap between the sensor and the tooth wheel. During normal operation a gap of 0.04-inch is allowable.
5. Sensor Output Voltage Test: Use a Volt/Ohm meter to check the AC output voltage of the sensors while rotating the wheel at approximately one-half revolution per second. Minimum output must be greater than
0.2 volts AC. If minimum output is less than
0.2 volts AC, push the sensor toward the tooth wheel. Recheck the sensor output.

How to Test Wheel Speed Sensors
At initial installation, no gap must exist between the sensor and the tooth wheel.
After you install a hub, always check that the sensor is adjusted properly.
Operating the trailer can cause a gap to develop between the sensor and the tooth wheel. If the gap exceeds 0.040-inch, the system may not function correctly.
To adjust the sensor, twist and push the sensor through the sensor bracket as far as possible or until the sensor touches the tooth wheel.
Section 7
Check ABS Functions
WABCO recommends that you test a vehicle's
ABS after a new installation and after you diagnose, repair and erase faults in the ABS.
Perform installation tests and blink code
diagnostics using the blink code diagnostic tool or the MPSI Pro-Link Model J 38500-404, version 4.0 or higher).

Measure resistance across each valve solenoid coil terminal and ground on the ABS valve to ensure
4.0 to 8.0 ohms. Valve and cable pinouts are illustrated in Figure 7.1 .
Sensor Test Procedure
1. Disconnect power to the ECU/Valve Assembly.
2. Disconnect the sensor electrical connector from the ECU/Valve Assembly.
3. Connect the Volt/Ohm meter leads to the two wire component terminals inside the disconnected connector.
4. When checking the resistance, the meter must read 500–2000 ohms.
5. Check and replace the sensor and cables as required.
6. Repeat Steps 1-5 for each sensor in the system.
Sensor Output Voltage Test
1. Disconnect power from the ECU/Valve Assembly.
2. Connect the AC Volt/Ohm meter leads to the sensor terminals inside the connector.
3. Rotate the corresponding wheel at a constant speed of one-half revolution per second.
4. The output voltage must be greater than
0.2 volts AC.
5. When there is no reading:
a. Trace the cable to verify that the cable
connects to the wheel you turned.
b. Check that you turned the correct wheel.
c. Check that the system is wired correctly.
d. Check that the sensor touches the
tooth wheel.
6. If the Volt/Ohm meter still indicates no reading or a low reading after following the above
procedures, check and replace the component and cables as required.
7. Repeat Steps 1-5 for each sensor in the system.
Figure 7.1
To check the cable and the ABS valve as one
unit, measure resistance across the pins on the ECU connector of the harness. See Figure 7.2 .
– For 2S/1M, 2S/2M, and 2S/4M systems,
measure the resistance across pins 1 and 3 and pins 2 and 3.

Sensor Adjustment & Component Testing
Sensor Installation Test (ECU Part Numbers 472 500 012 and 472 500 013 0)
Purpose of Test: To verify proper sensor gap, sensor hook-up to the ECU, ABS valve operation, and pneumatic plumbing connections of the WABCO Easy-Stop™ ABS on a new trailer.
1. Remove power from the ABS.
2. Raise sensed wheels so that they may be rotated.
3. Go to the diagnostic tool. Reapply power to the ABS.
If there is no diagnostic tool on the trailer,
temporarily install one for this test. You must use a diagnostic tool to complete the Sensor Installation Test.
4. Check the diagnostic tool to verify the status of the yellow LED. Figure 7.3 .
If LED comes ON and stays ON, go to Step 5.
If LED does not light, verify adequate power
is applied to the system. Make the necessary repairs.
If this does not occur, repeat Step 4.
Attach the emergency and control air lines to
the trailer. Fill air tanks to release the spring brakes.
6. Rotate each sensed wheel — ONE AT A TIME — at a rate of 1/2 revolution per second. Apply control pressure to activate the brakes. Refer to
Figure 7.4 .
Figure 7.4
Figure 7.3
1 Blink Code Switch 2 LED Lamp
5. Press and release the blink code switch three times for Sensor Installation Test Mode, one second each time, separated by a release time of one second.
The LED should display eight rapid flashes.
This indicates the Sensor Installation Test Mode. Then, the LED will continuously display the system configuration code:
– 2 Flashes = 4S/3M
– 3 Flashes = 4S/2M
– 4 Flashes = 2S/2M
– 5 Flashes = 2S/1M
1 Slack Adjuster
7. Observe the automatic slack adjuster on the rotated wheel. It must move in and out as the ABS valve cycles. This indicates a proper installation.
If the slack adjuster on the rotated wheel
does not move — but the slack adjuster on the opposite wheel does move — the sensor leads are reversed or the air line is plumbed wrong. Correct the installation.
If the slack adjuster on the rotated wheel
does not move, there may be a sensor gap problem. Check the sensor gap and make the necessary repairs.
8. Repeat Steps 6 and 7 on the remaining sensed wheels.
9. If you installed a diagnostic blink code tool for this test, remove it. Replace the protective cap over the connector.

Expert Mode Diagnostics
When you use Expert Mode diagnostics, the blink code lamp identifies and displays existing and intermittent faults consecutively in three-digit fault code sequences, with a short pause between each fault. Refer to Expert Mode Blink Code Example
(4S/2M Configuration) and Table J — Expert Mode Fault Code, all in this section.
Expert Mode identifies:
System configuration
Components that need repair;
Cause (or type) of fault, such as a cut sensor
cable; and
Number of times a fault has occurred.
The ECU stores intermittent and existing faults into memory in the order in which they occur. However, the blink code lamp displays the most
recent fault first.
How to Test for Intermittent Stored Faults Using the Expert Mode
Before you use Expert Mode diagnostics, be prepared to count and write down the blink code lamp flashes for each fault.
1. The vehicle must be stationary to activate the blink code. Power the ECU with a minimum of 12 volts DC (9.5–14 is an acceptable range). The warning lamp on the trailer will come ON.
2. Identify the fault. If not already attached, plug the diagnostic tool into the diagnostic cable socket usually located on the right side of the trailer.
b. Release the switch. The blink code lamp
will go OFF.
c. Depress the blink code lamp switch once
for one second. The blink code lamp will come ON.
d. As soon as the blink code lamp comes ON,
release the blink code button.
4. Determine whether or not there are Intermittent Stored faults in the system.
If there are no Intermittent Stored faults, the blink code lamp will come back ON and identify the system configuration one time by displaying:
– 2 Flashes = 4S/3M
– 3 Flashes = 4S/2M
– 4 Flashes = 2S/2M
– 5 Flashes = 2S/1M
After the blink code lamp displays the system configuration once, the lamp will remain OFF.
If There Are Intermittent Stored Faults in the System
1. The blink code lamp will come back ON and identify the system configuration one time by displaying:
– 2 Flashes = 4S/3M
– 3 Flashes = 4S/2M
– 4 Flashes = 2S/2M
– 5 Flashes = 2S/1M
2. The blink code lamp will go OFF for
2.5 seconds, come back ON for 2.5 seconds, and go OFF for 2.5 seconds.
The blink code lamp will display the most
recent fault in a three-digit fault code sequence. For example, a fault code sequence of 3-5-2 reads as follows:
For an alternate blink code access procedure,
see “Warning Lamp Diagnostics” in Appendix C.
You can restart the Expert Mode fault sequence
at any time by depressing the blink code lamp switch as described in Step 3 below.
3. Depress the blink code lamp switch located in
the diagnostic tool two times for one second each time as follows:
a. Depress the blink code lamp switch once
for one second. The lamp will come ON.
First Digit 3 Flashes = Sensor BU1
Second Digit 5 Flashes = Cut Sensor Cable
Third Digit (X)
3. The blink code lamp will then go OFF for
2.5 seconds, then display each remaining fault code sequence.
4. When all fault code sequences have been displayed, the blink code lamp will come ON and go OFF, and remain OFF.
