The operation sound may be decreased by reducing the load at the rubber mount portion of the brake tube and hydraulic unit.

PROBABLE CAUSES

DIAGNOSIS

DRIVING CHECK

  1. Turn the ignition switch from the "LOCK" (OFF) position to the "ON" position.
  2. When vehicle speed reaches 6 mph (10 km/h), check the operating sound volume and compare it with that of the same model.

    OK: The operating sound is the same volume or less by comparing with that of the same model.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : This diagnosis is complete.

NO : Carry out adjustment for hydraulic unit installation.

DATA LIST REFERENCE TABLE

The following items can be read by the scan tool from the ABS-ECU input data.

The following items of ECU input data can be read using scan tool.

1. The system is normal.

Mitsubishi Outlander. Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)

2. System shutdown by ECU

While ABS-ECU is disabled by the diagnostic function, the scan tool displayed data is different from the actual measurement.

RESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY BETWEEN HARNESS-SIDE CONNECTOR TERMINALS

Required Special Tool:

MB991974: ABS Check Harness

1. When performing the continuity check, turn the ignition switch to LOCK (OFF) position, connect the special tool ABS check harness (MB991974) as shown in the figure, and disconnect the ABS-ECU connector.

2. Check for continuity between terminals shown in the chart below.

3. Terminal layout is shown in the figure.
