1 General Information
MY 2004 VY AWD Wagon vehicles are equipped with an Antilock Braking System (ABS) that incorporates a Traction
Control System (TCS). This AWD ABS-TCS is calibrated for off-road driving conditions and comprises of the following:
Antilock Braking System (ABS), refer to 2.2 Antilock Braking System for information on ABS.
Automatic Brake Distribution (ABD) System, refer to 2.3 Automatic Brake Distribution System for information on
ABD System.
Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) System, refer to 2.4 Electronic Brake-force Distribution for information on
EBD System.
The ABS-TCS modulates the brake fluid pressure at each wheel during hard driving or an emergency braking situation,
to provide the following safety factors for safe and stable driving under various vehicle load and road surface conditions:
Reduced vehicle stopping distance,
Optimum vehicle stability and steering control,
Improved vehicle traction control, and
Dynamic front to rear wheel brake proportioning.
The vehicle braking system is dependent upon tyre traction to the road surface to achieve maximum braking efficiency.
The braking action converts the vehicle's forward motion into heat energy. Maximum braking efficiency is achieved when
a wheel lock-up is prevented and the wheel slip is approximately 12%. Refer to Figure 5B – 1 for the illustration of the
following:
At 0% slip, the tyre rolls freely (A).
At 100% slip, the tyre locks-up (B) as the weight of the vehicle (C) pushes the non-rotating tyre along the road
surface (1). The force involved in stopping an 1800 kg vehicle from 100 km/h requires the braking system to
generate approximately 8,100 kilojoule (kJ) of braking energy.
When the tyres are locked-up, the vehicle's forward energy is converted into braking energy (friction) between the
tyre and the road surface. This will result in an unstable and inefficient braking due to the effect of the following
factors:
Asphalt, cement, gravel or dirt road surfaces provide different degree of tyre traction.
Oil puddles, ice spots or other contaminants that cause a sudden change in the road surface condition.
Wet, dry, smooth, rough road surface condition affect tyre traction.
Figure 5B – 1
When none of the wheels are locked during braking, the heat energy produced by the braking action is transferred to
the brake pads and the brake disc. As the friction surfaces between the brake pads and the brake disc are designed to
provide a stable and controlled braking action, a vehicle that is stopped without locking the wheels will stop in a shorter
distance while maintaining directional stability and steering capability.
AW D ABS-TCS Page 5B–5
Page 5B–5
In addition, steering control also depends upon tyre traction.
A locked wheel in a 100% slip condition delivers poor
braking and directional control.
In this example, the front tyre direction (A) has minimal
steering effect while the vehicle slides in direction (B). The
tyres must regain their traction before steering control is
restored to the vehicle.
Figure 5B – 2
Skilled drivers carefully control wheel lock-up by limiting brake pressure, but wheel lock-up on wet roads or in other
reduced traction conditions are difficult to prevent through non-ABS braking.
In theory, the skilled driver limits brake application just short of lock-up. In practice, the driver rapidly pumps the brake
pedal to prevent wheel lock-up. The driver applies, releases, reapplies and releases the brakes until the vehicle stops.
However, the most skilled drivers cannot pump the brakes rapidly or precisely enough for the best braking under all road
surface conditions. In addition, if only one wheel is locking-up, pumping of the brake pedal applies and releases the
brakes at all four wheels at the same time.
The MY 2004 VY AWD Wagon ABS-TCS is designed to provide automatic wheel braking control to each wheel for
optimum vehicle braking, traction and stability under any road surface condition.

2 System Operation
2.1 Non-ABS Braking
Under normal braking and driving conditions, the ABS-TCS functions like a conventional braking system. Refer to
Section 5A Service and Park Braking System for further information on the conventional braking system.
Non-ABS Braki ng O perat ion
When the brakes are applied (E), the brake booster assists the brake master cylinder (1) in providing brake fluid
pressure (A) to the brake calipers (2) without any intervention from the hydraulic modulator (3). Refer to Figure 5B-5.
However, the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) constantly monitors each wheel for wheel slip. If the ECU detects a wheel
slip, it switches to the appropriate Mode:
ABS Mode – If any of the wheels begin to lock-up.
EBD Mode – If the front-to-rear wheel speed is not balanced during braking.
Condition Description
At normal braking, all the valves in the hydraulic modulator are in their normal rest positions allowing for uninterrupted
flow of brake fluid from the master cylinder to the brake calipers. The hydraulic modulator provides conventional non-
ABS braking by allowing the brake fluid to flow between the brake master cylinder and the brake caliper in either
direction.

2.2 Antilock Braking System (ABS)
The ABS is designed to prevent wheel loc k -up during hard or emergency braking. When the ABS detec ts that a wheel is
beginning to lock-up, the hydraulic modulator reduces the braking force applied by modulating the brake fluid supply
pressure of the locking wheel. The following are conditions that may occur under various ABS-TCS Phases:
ABS-TCS Normal Operating Conditi ons
The following are conditions that may be experienced when the ABS-TCS is activated and are considered normal:
During ABS-controlled braking, the braking pressure of the affected wheel is automatically adjusted to prevent
wheel lock-up, regardless of brake pedal force.
During some ABS-TCS operation, the following conditions may be experienced and are considered normal:
A series of rapid pulsations are felt through the brake pedal – these pulsations occur as solenoid valves
within the hydraulic modulator change position to modulate the brake hydraulic pressure.
A ticking or popping noise in the hydraulic modulator – this noise occurs as the hydraulic modulator solenoid
valves cycle rapidly to modulate the hydraulic brake pressure.
Intermittent chirping noises – this noise may be heard as the tyres approach slipping on dry pavement.
Electric motor and pump noise and rapid brake pedal pulsation – these are caused by the operation of the
hydraulic modulator pump during the ABS/EBD Reducing or Increasing Pressure Phase, ABD Brake
Intervention or the ECU self-test.
ABS Phase – Mai nt ai ning Pressure
Condition Description
When the brakes are applied (A) and the Electronic Control
Unit (ECU) detects that a wheel reaches a point (1) where it
is beginning to lock-up, the hydraulic modulator controls the
brake fluid pressure of the affected wheel to maintain its
brake fluid pressure (C) and prevent a wheel lock-up.
Figure 5B – 6
Control Action
NOTE
The following ABS situation assumes that the
rear left wheel is beginning to lock-up. Refer to
Figure 5B – 7 for the illustration of the ABS
Phase – Maintaining Pressure Hydraulic Circuit.
The ECU monitors and compares signals from each wheel speed sensor to determine wheel lock-up or wheel spin. If a
wheel lock-up is detected during braking, the ECU switches to the Maintaining Pressure Phase and sends a control
signal to the hydraulic modulator (1) to close the rear left inlet valve (2).
With both the rear left inlet valve and outlet valve (3) closed, the rear left brake fluid circuit is isolated and the rear left
brake fluid pressure (C) is kept constant regardless of the brake fluid pressure (A) exerted by the brake pedal (E).

ABS Phase – Reducing Pressure
Condition Description
If maintaining the brake fluid pressure in the Maintaining
Pressure Phase (C) did not prevent the affected wheel from
locking-up (1), the ABS switches from Maintaining Pressure
Phase to Reducing Pressure Phase.
The hydraulic modulator modulates the brake fluid circuit of
the affected wheel to reduce its brake fluid pressure (D) and
prevent wheel lock-up.
Figure 5B – 8
Control Action
NOTE
The following ABS situation assumes that the
rear left wheel is still locking-up while the ABS is
already in Maintaining Pressure Phase. Refer to
Figure 5B – 9 for the illustration of the ABS –
Reducing Pressure Hydraulic Circuit.
The ECU monitors and compares signals from each wheel speed sensor to determine wheel lock-up and wheel spin. If
the rear left wheel lock-up is still detected when the ABS is already in the Maintaining Pressure Phase, the ECU
switches to the ABS Reducing Pressure Phase. The ECU sends a control signal to the hydraulic modulator (1) to:
Open the rear left outlet valve (2).
Close rear left inlet valve (3).
Operate the hydraulic modulator pump (4). The hydraulic modulator pump will remain operational for the duration
of the ABS Phase.
The ABS performs the following actions during the Reducing Pressure Phase:
1 The rear left brake fluid is initially directed towards the accumulator (5) to guarantee instant pressure reduction
when the rear left outlet valve is opened.
2 The accumulator stores the excess rear left brake fluid.
3 The hydraulic modulator pump builds-up the rear left brake fluid return flow pressure that will allow the brake fluid
released from rear left brake caliper (6) to be returned back to the brake master cylinder (7) against brake pedal
pressure (D). Because the brake pedal is still being depressed during this phase, the released pressure from the
brake caliper has to be greater than the brake fluid pressure applied by the master cylinder.

ABS Phase – Increasing Pressure
Condition Description
If reducing the brake fluid pressure in the Reducing
Pressure Phase (D) results in the following:
The brake fluid pressure reaches a point (1) where
insufficient braking force is applied to the affected
wheel,
The ECU determines that the affected wheel is now
underbraked.
The ABS switches from Reducing Pressure Phase to
Increasing Pressure Phase (AD). In this phase, the
hydraulic modulator modulates the affected wheel brake
fluid circuit to increase its brake fluid pressure, which
increases braking force and balances wheel speed during
braking.
Figure 5B – 10
Control Action
NOTE
The following ABS situation assumes that the
rear left wheel speed is under braked as a result
of the reduced braking force applied during the
ABS Reducing Pressure Phase. Refer to Figure
5B – 11 for the illustration of the ABS –
Increasing Pressure Hydraulic Circuit.
The ECU monitors and compares signals from each wheel speed sensor to determine wheel lock-up and wheel spin. If
the ECU detects that the rear left wheel speed is higher than the other three wheels as a result of the reduced braking
force applied during the Reducing Pressure Phase, the ECU switches to the Increasing Pressure Phase. The ECU
sends a control signal to the hydraulic modulator (1) to:
Close (normal position) the rear left outlet valve (2).
Open (normal position) the rear left inlet valve (3).
Continue operation of the hydraulic modulator pump (4) for the duration of the ABS Phase.
The master cylinder (5) brake fluid pressure (A) is again directed to the rear left brake caliper (6) as in normal brake
operation. The previously reduced rear left brake fluid pressure is now increased to reduce the rear left wheel speed.
These ABS Phases are repeated until the ECU detects that the wheel speeds are balanced or the brake pedal pressure
removed. There are approximately four to six control cycles per second depending on the road surface condition.

2.3 Automatic Brake Distribution (ABD)
System
The Automatic Brake Distribution (ABD) System is designed to prevent wheel spin during a standing start, acceleration
or cornering. When the ECU is in the ABD Mode, the hydraulic modulator modulates the brake hydraulic circuit of the
spinning wheel and applies appropriate brake fluid pressure, which enables the ABD System to automatically apply
braking force and prevent wheel spin.
A wheel spin causes the following vehicle conditions:
The rear of the vehicle swerves and the vehicle becomes unstable.
Increased tyre tread wear.
High drivetrain stress that may result in premature drivetrain failure when a spinning wheel suddenly finds traction
on a high adhesive surface.
ABD System – Brake Intervention
NOTE
The following ABD System situation assumes
that the rear left wheel is beginning to slip. Refer
to Figure 5B – 12 for the illustration of the
ABD System – Hydraulic System Circuit.
The ECU monitors and compares signals from each wheel speed sensor to determine wheel lock-up and wheel spin. In
addition, the ECU monitors and evaluates signals from the longitudinal accelerometer the rate of vehicle acceleration.
In addition, if the vehicle is travelling on a slippery road condition or on a slope, which causes all four wheels to loose
traction, the ECU uses the longitudinal wheel speed sensor signal voltage to support the calculation of the actual vehicle
speed. Refer to 3.4 Longitudinal Accelerometer for further information on the longitudinal accelerometer.
If the ECU detects that the rear left wheel is beginning to slip due to a slippery road surface or excessive engine torque
and the brakes are not applied, the ECU switches to the ABD Mode. During this Mode, the ECU sends the following
signal to the hydraulic modulator (1) to:
Close the rear isolating valve (2).
Open the rear prime valve (3).
Close the rear right inlet valve (4)
Operate the hydraulic modulator pump (5).
The hydraulic modulator performs the following operations during the ABD Mode. These operations can be applied
approximately four to six times a second and can function on one or more driven wheels:
The rear isolation valve is closed to isolate the rear brake fluid circuits from the master cylinder and prevent the
brake fluid returning to the brake master cylinder when the hydraulic pump builds-up the brake fluid pressure.
The rear right inlet valve is closed to isolate the rear right wheel hydraulic circuit (C) allowing the hydraulic
modulator to supply brake fluid pressure only to the rear left wheel.
The rear priming valve is open to allow brake fluid to be drawn from the master cylinder into the hydraulic pump
The hydraulic pump supplies brake fluid pressure (D) to the rear left brake caliper. Applying brake force to the
spinning wheel allows torque to be transferred to the wheel with good traction.
The rear left wheel inlet and outlet valves cycle open and close to provide sufficient braking force to the rear left
wheel to stop it from spinning. The inlet and outlet valve cycle assists in obtaining maximum road surface traction
in the same manner as the ABS Mode. The difference between ABS and ABD mode is that during ABD Mode, the
brake fluid pressure is increased to reduce wheel spin. In contrast, during the ABS Mode, the brake fluid pressure
is decreased to avoid wheel lock-up.
NOTE
If at any time during ABD Mode the brakes are
manually applied, the brake switch sends a
signal to the ECU to exit the ABD Brake
Intervention Mode and allow for manual braking.

2.4 Electronic Brake-force Distribution
(EBD) System
The Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) System is part of the ABS-TCS software programmed into the Electronic
Control Unit (ECU) and is designed to replace the rear brake proportioning valve in preventing rear wheel lock-up during
moderate braking. The EBD System utilises the existing ABS System active controls to regulate the vehicle's rear brake
fluid pressure. This enables the EBD System to provide dynamic front to rear brake proportioning under various vehicle
loads, driving manoeuvres, or road conditions.
In some situations, when the EBD System is activated, a brake pedal height drop of approximately 10 mm will be
experienced when the driver varies the brake pedal pressure while performing brake stops. This is caused by the
hydraulic modulator performing an adjustment on the rear brake fluid pressure and is considered normal. The following
are conditions that may occur under various EBD System Phases:
EBD System Keep Alive Function
The EBD System plays an important role in vehicle stability during braking. For this reason, the EBD System has a Keep
Alive Function integrated in its software. When the ECU detects a fault in the ABS-TCS, depending on the type of
failure, certain parts of the system are kept alive. This allows the EBD System to apply some rear wheel brake
proportioning even under certain ABS-TCS fault conditions.
EBD – Maintai n i ng Pressure
Condition Description
When the brakes are applied (A) and the ECU determines
that the rear wheels reach a point (1) where their rotational
speed is decelerating faster than the front wheels, the
hydraulic modulator individually modulates the rear wheel
brake fluid pressure (C) to maintain the rear braking force
and prevent a wheel lock-up.
NOTE
The EBD System operation takes effect before
the increased slip rate required for an ABS
brake intervention.
Figure 5B – 13
Control Action
NOTE
The following EBD situation assumes that the
rear wheels are beginning to slip. Refer to Figure
5B – 14 for the illustration of the EBD Hydraulic
Circuit.
The ECU monitors and evaluates signals from each wheel speed sensor to determine wheel lock-up or wheel spin.
When the ECU determines that the rear wheels are decelerating faster than the front wheels but the rate of deceleration
doesn't reach a point where it requires ABS intervention, the ECU switches to EBD Maintaining Pressure Phase.
As a first step during the EBD Maintaining Pressure Phase, the ECU sends a control signal to the hydraulic modulator
(1) to close the rear inlet valves (2) and isolate the rear brake fluid circuit from the brake master cylinder. This maintains
the rear brake fluid pressure (C) regardless of the brake fluid pressure (A) exerted by the brake pedal (E).

EBD Phase – Reducing Pressure
Condition Description
If maintaining the brake fluid pressure in the EBD System
Maintaining Pressure Phase (C) did not prevent the rear
wheels from decelerating faster than the front wheels, the
EBD System switches from Maintaining Pressure Phase to
Reducing Pressure Phase (D).
The hydraulic modulator modulates the rear wheel brake
fluid circuits to reduce its brake fluid pressure and prevent
wheel lock-up.
NOTE
The EBD System operation takes effect before the
increased slip rate required for an ABS brake intervention.
Figure 5B – 15
Control Action
NOTE
The following EBD System situation assumes
that the rear wheels are still decelerating faster
than the front wheels while the EBD System is
already in Maintaining Pressure Phase. Refer to
Figure 5B – 16 for the illustration of the EBD –
Reducing Pressure Hydraulic Circuit.
If the ECU detects that the rear wheels are still decelerating faster than the front wheels while the EBD System is
already in Maintaining Pressure Phase, the ECU switches to the Reducing Pressure Phase. The ECU sends a control
signal to the hydraulic modulator (1) to:
Close the rear inlet valves (2).
Open the rear outlet valves (3).
The EBD performs the following actions during the Reducing Pressure Phase:
1 The rear brake fluid is directed towards the accumulator (4) to allow brake fluid pressure reduction.
2 The accumulator stores the excess rear brake fluid. It is capable of storing all the excess brake fluid during an
EBD System operation. However, if the accumulator has been filled to its limit and the ECU still determines that
the rear wheels are decelerating faster than the front wheels, the ECU activates the hydraulic modulator pump and
returns the excess brake fluid to the brake master cylinder.

EBD Phase – Increasing Pressure
Condition Description
If reducing the rear brake fluid pressure in the EBD
Reducing Pressure Phase (D) causes the brake fluid
pressure to drop to a point (1) where the front and rear
wheels are now rotating at the same speed or almost at the
same speed, the EBD System switches from Reducing
Pressure Phase to Increasing Pressure Phase (AD).
In this phase, the ECU sends a signal to the hydraulic
modulator to allow normal brake master cylinder pressure to
be applied to the rear wheels as in normal brake operation.
Figure 5B – 17
Control Action
NOTE
The following EBD System operation assumes
that the front and rear wheels are now rotating at
the same speed or almost at the same speed, as
a result of the reduced braking force applied
during the EBD Reducing Pressure Phase.
The ECU monitors and compares signals from each wheel speed sensor to determine wheel lock-up and wheel spin. If
the ECU detects that the front and rear wheels are now rotating at the same speed or almost at the same speed as a
result of the reduced braking force applied during the EBD Reducing Pressure Phase, the EBD System switches from
Reducing Pressure Phase to Increasing Pressure Phase.
The ECU sends a control signal to the hydraulic modulator to return the rear outlet valve and the rear inlet valve to their
normal rest position.
The master cylinder brake fluid pressure is directed to the rear brake calipers as in normal brake operation. The
previously reduced rear brake fluid pressure is now increased to normal brake master cylinder pressure and the front
and rear wheels brake fluid pressures are again equal.
These EBD Phases are repeated until the ECU detects that the wheel speeds are balanced or the brake pedal pressure
removed. There are approximately four to six control cycles per second depending on the road surface condition.

3 Component Description and
Operation
3.1 Electronic Control Unit (ECU)
The Electronic Control Unit (ECU) (1) is the control centre of
the ABS-TCS Braking System. It is integrated with the
hydraulic modulator (2) to form one assembly.
The ECU constantly monitors and evaluates input signals
from various sensors and switches. If it detects a wheel spin
or a wheel slip condition, the ECU switches to the following
Mode:
ABS Mode – Refer to
2.2 Antilock Braking System (ABS).
ABD Mode – Refer to
2.3 Automatic Brake Distribution (EBD) System.
EBD Mode – Refer to
2.4 Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) System.
Figure 5B – 18
ECU Self-test Initialisation Sequence
NOTE
If the ECU detects a fault in the ABS-TCS
Braking System, it takes the following action:
The ECU will disable the ABS-TCS Braking
System.
The ABS-TCS remains disabled until the next
ignition cycle.
Illuminate the warning lamps.
Sets a DTC.
NOTE
Conventional braking system is available while
the ABS-TCS is disabled.
The ECU performs one Self-test Initialisation Sequence for each ignition cycle. This Initialisation Sequence commences
when the vehicle reaches approximately 6 km/h.
During the Initialisation Sequence, the ECU sends a control signal to the hydraulic modulator to cycle each of the
solenoid valve as well as the pump motor for approximately 1.5 seconds to check for correct component operation. If the
pump or any solenoid valves fail to operate, the ECU will disable the ABS-TCS Braking System, illuminate the warning
lamp and sets a DTC.
NOTE
The Initialisation Sequence may be heard and
felt while it is taking place, which is considered
part of the normal system operation. Refer to,
2.2 Antilock Braking System (ABS).
In addition, as soon as the ECU receives a signal from any of the wheel speed sensors, it checks all the wheel speed
sensor outputs. If any of the wheel speed sensor signals are not detected, or are incorrect, the ECU will disable the
ABS-TCS Braking System, illuminate the warning lamps and sets a DTC.
AW D ABS-TCS Page 5B–26
Page 5B–26
Once the vehicle speed exceeds 6 km/h, the ECU continuously monitors the ABS-TCS by comparing the logical
sequence of input and output signals with the normal operating parameter stored in the ECU . If any of the input or
output signals are outside the normal operating parameters, the ECU will disable the ABS-TCS Braking System,
illuminate the warning lamps and set a DTC.
ECU Inputs
The ECU constantly monitors and evaluates the input signals from the following components:
Wheel speed sensors.
Stop lamp switch.
Longitudinal accelerometer sensor.
Ignition ON input.
Battery voltage.
Engine speed signal.
Serial data (input and output).
ECU Output s
Based on the inputs received, the ECU sends output signals to the following ABS-TCS components:
ABS warning lamp.
Multifunction Display (MFD) ABS icon, ABS fault, low traction and trac off display.
Class 2 serial data.
Diagnostic link.
hydraulic modulator solenoid valves.
hydraulic modulator pump motor.

3.2 Hydraulic Modulator
The Hydraulic Modulator modulates the brake fluid pressure based on the control signal sent by the Electronic Control
Unit (ECU).
To allow individual control of each wheel brake fluid circuit, a four-channel circuit configuration with a front/rear split has
been used. Each of the brake fluid circuits is hydraulically isolated, which enables continued braking ability if a leak
develops in any of the brake fluid circuits. The internal components of the hydraulic modulator consist of the following:
(refer to Figure 5B – 21)
Four inlet solenoid valves (1).
Four outlet solenoid valves (2).
Two isolating solenoid valves (3).
Two priming solenoid valves (4).
Two accumulators (5).
Two one-way valves (6).

3.3 Wheel Speed Sensors
The front and rear wheel speed sensors (1) consist of a
pole pin (2) surrounded with a coil winding (3). The pole pin
tip is positioned pointing to the pulse ring (5) and is
attached to a permanent magnet that projects a magnetic
field (4) towards the pulse ring.
As the wheel turns, the teeth of the pulse ring induces
changes in the magnetic field of the pole pin and the coil
winding. The magnetic flux thereby changes and an
alternating voltage (6) is induced in the coil of the wheel
speed sensor.
The number of turns of the coil, the magnetisation level of
the pole pin and the number of pulse ring teeth are constant
and the only variable is the wheel RPM. Therefore, the
frequency and amplitude of the output signal depend on the
speed of wheel rotation.
The dotted line (7) represents the voltage generated by the
wheel speed sensor versus time (t) at low wheel speed.
The continuous line (8) represents the voltage generated by
the wheel speed sensor versus time (t) at high wheel
speed.
Figure 5B – 22
Testing Wheel Speed Sensor Using an Oscilloscope
Using an oscilloscope to display the output signal voltage of a suspected wheel speed sensor will enable the service
technician to graphically view a pulse ring related wheel speed sensor fault condition that may be difficult to detect
otherwise.
A normal wheel speed sensor signal produces a sine wave
with the height of the amplitude (A) and the width of the
frequency (B) proportional to the wheel speed.
If the pulse ring is out of round or if it is incorrectly aligned
with the wheel speed sensor, the air gap between the wheel
speed sensor and the pulse ring will vary as the wheel
rotates. This fault condition will produce a wheel speed
sensor signal with varying amplitude (2).
If the pulse ring teeth are missing or damaged, the
oscilloscope sine wave pattern will display flat spots (3) that
represent the missing or damaged pulse ring teeth.

Front Wheel Speed Sensor
The front wheel speed sensor (1) in conjunction with a
pulse ring (2) generates an AC signal voltage. The
amplitude and frequency of the signal generated is
proportional to the wheel speed.
Signals generated by the front wheel speed sensor are
transmitted to the Electronic Control Unit (ECU). The ECU
uses this signal voltage to determine the rotational speed of
the front wheels.
The front wheel speed sensor pulse ring is a part of the
front driveshaft constant velocity joint assembly and is not
serviced separately. Refer to Section 4B2 Final Drive.
If the front constant velocity joint requires
replacement, the correct replacement part
must be installed. Otherwise, ABS-TCS
malfunction will occur. Figure 5B – 25
Rear Wheel Speed Sensors
The rear wheel speed sensor (1) in conjunction with a pulse
ring (2) generates an AC signal voltage. The amplitude and
frequency of the signal generated is proportional to the
wheel speed.
Signals generated by the rear wheel speed sensor are
transmitted to the ECU. The ECU uses this signal voltage to
determine the rotational speed of the front wheels.
The rear wheel speed sensor pulse ring is part of the final
drive inner axle flanges and is not serviced separately.
If the final drive inner axle flange requires
replacement, the correct replacement part
must be installed. Otherwise, ABS-TCS
malfunction will occur.

3.4 Longitudinal Accelerometer
The longitudinal accelerometer consists of differential
capacitors connected to the fixed side plates (1) and a
sprung mass (2) that moves in response to vehicle
acceleration (C).
When the vehicle is stationary (A), the distance between
the sprung mass and the two side plates are equal.
Therefore, the capacitance between the two capacitors are
the same and the longitudinal accelerometer signal voltage
is zero.
As the vehicle accelerates (B), the sprung mass moves
rearward (D). The capacitance between the two capacitors
changes causing the longitudinal accelerometer to produce
a signal voltage with an amplitude proportional to the
movement of the sprung mass.
The signal voltage from the accelerometer is proportional to
the vehicle level of acceleration or deceleration.
Figure 5B – 27
The Longitudinal Accelerometer (1) sends signal voltage,
which the ECU uses to determine the rate of vehicle
acceleration or deceleration. In addition, the longitudinal
accelerometer supports the calculation of the actual vehicle
speed when all four wheels are slipping.
In addition, the ECU monitors and evaluates the longitudinal
accelerometer signal voltage along with the wheel speed
sensor signal voltage to determine the uphill or downhill
gradient.
The longitudinal accelerometer aids the ECU to correctly
identify different driving situations and conditions to
enhance the vehicle's stability, steering control and traction
control.

ABS Warning Lamp
The ABS wa rning lamp is located in the instrument cluster
and is a part of the driver warning system.
When the ignition is switched on, the ECU performs self-
test and the ABS warning lamp illuminates. The ABS lamp
should go out after the self-test or approximately 2 seconds.
If the ECU detects a fault in the ABS, the ABS lamp will stay
illuminated to warn the driver of the ABS fault.
Refer to Section 12C Instruments for further information on
the ABS warning lamp operation and diagnostic procedure.

4 AWD ABS-TCS Diagnostics
General Information
The ABS-TCS diagnostic procedure is organised in a logical structure that begins with the ABS-TCS Main Diagnostic
Table. The Main Diagnostic Table provides the following information:
Identification of the ECU ,
Condition of the diagnostic circuit,
Identification and status of the DTCs if present.
In addition, the Main Diagnostic Table will direct the service technician to the next logical step or diagnostic table, which
may again refer the service technician to the next logical step or diagnostic table. This process will continue until the
fault is located and rectified.
However, the diagnostic information covered in this Section covers fault conditions only in the ABS-TCS. If there are
fault conditions with the conventional braking system such as the following; these fault conditions must be corrected
before attempting to rectify any suspected ABS-TCS fault.
Brake noise,
Spongy brake pedal feel,
Brake pedal or vehicle vibration during normal brake application,
Brake pulling to one side,
Parking brake problem.
Refer to Section 5A Service and Park Braking Systems for the diagnosis and repair procedure of the conventional
braking system.
4.1 Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Tables
The diagnostic procedure is directed to the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Tables if there are DTCs currently stored in
the ECU.
The diagnostic tables are designed to locate a faulty circuit or component through a logic based on the process of
elimination. The tables are prepared with the understanding that the vehicle:
Functioned correctly at the time of assembly,
There are no multiple faults,
The problem currently exists.
If there are multiple DTCs stored in the ECU, the diagnostic process must begin with the most likely DTC that may
trigger other DTCs. The following situation is an example of a DTC that may trigger other DTCs to set.
If there is a battery supply voltage fault condition in the ECU, DTC C0896 Battery Voltage Out of Range may set.
Insufficient battery supply voltage to an ABS-TCS component such as a solenoid valve coil may cause
incorrect hydraulic modulator operation. This condition will cause incorrect ABS-TCS operation and may
trigger DTC C0121 to set.
A battery supply voltage to the ECU that is too high may cause damage to other ABS-TCS components. If
this charging system fault condition is not rectified and an ABS-TCS component is replaced, premature
failure of the replacement component may occur.
Therefore, knowledge of the ABS-TCS and Tech 2 Limitations are important to reduce diagnostic time and to prevent
misdiagnosis. Refer to 5.1 Diagnostic Requirements, Precautions and Preliminary Checks and 4.3 Tech 2 ECU
Diagnostic Tests.
AW D ABS-TCS Page 5B–37
Page 5B–37
4.2 Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
The ECU performs a self-test that detects and isolates ABS-TCS faults (refer to 3.1 ECU Self-test Initialisation
Sequence). When a fault is detected, the ECU will log a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) that represents the fault
detected. The DTCs stored in the ECU may be accessed using Tech 2, refer to Section 0C Tech 2 for information on
Tech 2.
NOTE
To warn the driver that there is a fault in the ABS
and/or TCS System and that the ABS and/or
TCS is currently disabled, the ECU sends a
signal to the following instrument cluster warning
lamps or icons to activate:
ABS warning lamp (1)
ABS fault (2)
ABS icon (3)
TRAC OFF (4)
Parking brake/brake fail warning lamp (5)
Refer to Section 12C, for further information on
the braking system warning lamps and icon.
Figure 5B – 36
Status of DTCs
The ECU designates the DTCs logged into a Current or History DTC.
Current DTCs
If the fault condition that triggers the DTC is present during the last ECU self-diagnostics, that DTC will be designated as
a current DTC.
History DTCs
If the fault condition that triggers the DTC is not present during the last ECU self-test, that DTC will be designated as a
Histo r y DTC.
Conditions f or Clearing DTCs
If there is no DTC logged in the current ECU self-test, the current DTC will be cleared.
If there is no DTC logged after the last ECU self-diagnostics, the ECU deactivates the MFD ABS warning display.
If there is no DTC logged after 100 consecutive drive cycles, the history DTC will be cleared.
Use Tech 2 to clear the DTC.
AW D ABS-TCS Page 5B–38
Page 5B–38
4.3 Tech 2 ECU Diagnostic Tests
NOTE
Refer to Section 0C TECH 2 and the Tech 2
Users Manual for detailed information and
instruction regarding the use of Tech 2.
Tech 2 Limitations
Some DTCs trigger other DTCs to set, which cause Tech 2 to display multiple DTCs. Therefore, in those situations,
Tech 2 may display more DTCs than what is needed to rectify a fault.
In addition, when Tech 2 is displaying an ECU Output Function, it displays only the command given by the ECU. If a
connector is disconnected or if a solenoid valve is faulty, that fault will not be registered in the ECU Output Function.
Tech 2 does not verify if the command action took place.
The service technician must understand the system being diagnosed as well as the correct use and limitations of Tech 2
to be able to perform diagnostic procedures efficiently and successfully.
Tech 2 Intermittent Faul t Tests
The following are lists of Tech 2 diagnostic tests that may be used to diagnose intermittent faults:
Wiggle test the suspected ABS-TCS component wiring harness and connectors while observing the Tech 2
operating parameters of the circuit being tested. If the Tech 2 read-out fluctuates during this procedure, check the
wiring harness circuit for loose connection.
Road test the vehicle in the conditions that triggers the intermittent fault while an assistant observes the suspected
Tech 2 operating parameter data.
Capture and store data in the Snapshot mode when the fault occurs. The stored data may be played back at a
slower rate to aid in diagnostics. Refer to the Tech 2 User Instructions for more information on the Snapshot
function.
Operate suspected ABS-TCS components to test their operation using the Tech 2 Output Control Data.
AW D ABS-TCS Page 5B–39

Tech 2 Data List
The Tech 2 ABS-TCS Data List contains the ABS-TCS operating parameters that may be used to analyse the ABS-TCS
operating parameters of the vehicle being diagnosed.
This enables the technician to compare the operating parameter of the vehicle being diagnosed to the typical data value
of a known good vehicle.

Starting Point
5.1 Diagnostic Requirements, Precautions
and Preliminary Checks
Basic Knowledge Requi red
A lack of basic understanding regarding
electronics, electrical wiring circuits and use
of electrical circuit testing tools when
performing the ABS-TCS diagnostic
procedures could result in incorrect
diagnostic results or damage to components.
A general understanding of basic electronics, electrical wiring circuits and the correct use of the basic ABS-TCS System
electrical circuit testing tools is required to perform the diagnostic procedures detailed in this Section. Refer to
Section 12P Wiring Diagrams .
In addition, a general understanding of the ABS-TCS and its component operation is essential to prevent misdiagnosis
and component damage.
Basic Diagnosti c Tools Required
Use of incorrect electrical circuit diagnostic
tools when performing the ABS-TCS
diagnostic procedures could result in
incorrect diagnostic results or damage to
components.
The following electrical circuit testing tools are required to perform the diagnostic procedures detailed in this Section.
Tech 2, refer to Section 0C Tech 2.
Test light, refer to Section 12P Wiring Diagrams.
Digital multimeter with 10 mega ohms impedance, refer to Section 12P Wiring Diagrams.
Connector test adapter kit Tool No. J35616-A.

Page 5B–41
Diagnostic Precaut ions
In addition to the safety and precautionary
measures listed in the Service Operation
Safety and Precautionary Measures, (refer to
9.1 Safety and Precautionary Measures) the
following Diagnostic Precautions must be
observed when performing any ABS-TCS
diagnostic procedure:
1 If there is a fault condition in the conventional braking system, rectify that fault condition before proceeding with
the ABS-TCS diagnostics.
2 Use only the test equipment specified in the diagnostic tables, other test equipment may either give incorrect
results or may damage good components.
3 The vehicle drive wheels must be chocked and the parking brake firmly applied while checking any system.
4 Do not clear any DTCs unless instructed.
5 The fault must be present when using the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Diagnostic Tables. Otherwise,
misdiagnosis or replacement of good parts may occur.
6 Always use connector adaptors such as those contained in Connector test adapter kit Tool No. J35616-A to
prevent connector terminal damage.
7 Thorough inspection of the wiring circuits and connectors that are part of diagnostic procedure must be performed,
otherwise misdiagnosis may occur.
8 Inspect the electrical circuitry or connector terminals that are suspected to be causing the complaint for the
following conditions:
Backed-out connector terminals,
Improper wiring connector mating,
Broken wiring connector locks,
Damaged connector terminals, and
Physical damage to the wiring harness.
9 Before replacing a component, inspect its connector terminal for corrosion or deformation that may cause the fault
condition.
10 If Tech 2 was used for diagnosis, disconnect it from the DLC and switch the ignition off for at least 10 seconds
before road testing. This is necessary to reset the ABS/TCS control module as it is disabled during most Tech 2
diagnostic procedures.
11 After completing the required diagnostic and repair operations, road test the vehicle to ensure proper ABS/TCS
operation.
AW D ABS-TCS Page 5B–42
Page 5B–42
Prelimi nary Checks
The ABS-TCS Preliminary Checks is an examination of easily accessible components that could cause problems with
the ABS-TCS. This visual and physical inspection procedure may quickly identify the fault condition and eliminate the
need for additional diagnosis.
Refer to Service Techlines for relevant information regarding the fault condition.
Ensure that only the recommended tyres and wheel size are fitted to the vehicle.
Check the hydraulic modulator for external leaks.
Check the ABS fuses. Refer to 3.7 ABS-TCS Fuse Locations.
Check the ABS-TCS warning lamp fuse and stop lamp fuse. Refer to Section 12P Wiring Diagrams.
Ensure that the battery is fully charged.
Check the battery connections for corrosion or a loose terminal.
Perform a visual and physical inspection of the following ECU system:
ABS-TCS component wiring harness and term inals for proper connections, pinches or cuts.
Wiring harness routing which may be positioned very close to a high voltage or high current device such as
the following:
Secondary ignition components
Motors and generators
NOTE
High voltage or high current devices may induce
electrical noise on a circuit, which can interfere
with normal circuit operation.
ABS-TCS related components for poor mating of the connector halves or a terminal not fully seated in the
connector body.
ABS-TCS components are sensitive to Electro-magnetic Interference (EMI). Check for incorrect aftermarket
theft deterrent devices, lights or mobile phone installations if an intermittent malfunction is suspected.

7.12 DTC C0191 – Longitudinal Acceleration
Sensor Incorrect Signal
Circuit Descri ption
The ECU supplies 5 volts to the longitudinal accelerometer reference circuit 1337 and ground through low reference
circuit 1338.
The longitudinal accelerometer uses two differential capacitors in conjunction with a sprung mass to produce a signal
voltage. This signal voltage is proportional to the level of vehicle acceleration.
The ECU monitors the longitudinal accelerometer signal voltage circuit 716 to determine the level of vehicle acceleration
or deceleration.
When the vehicle is stationary, the longitudinal accelerometer signal voltage ranges from 2.4 to 2.6 volts.
As the vehicle accelerates, the signal voltage increases proportional to the vehicle acceleration with a maximum of
4.7 volts.
As the vehicle decelerates, the signal voltage decreases in proportion to the vehicle deceleration with a minimum
of 0.4 volt.
If the ECU detects that the longitudinal accelerometer signal voltage is outside the predetermined parameters, DTC
C0191 sets.

7.13 DTC C0192 – Longitudinal Acceleration
Sensor Circuit Malfunction
Circuit Descri ption
The ECU supplies 5 volts to the longitudinal accelerometer through reference circuit 1337 and ground through low
reference circuit 1338.
The longitudinal accelerometer uses two differential capacitors in conjunction with a sprung mass to produce a signal
voltage. This signal voltage is proportional to the level of vehicle acceleration.
The ECU monitors the longitudinal accelerometer signal voltage circuit 716 to determine the level of vehicle acceleration
or deceleration.
When the vehicle is stationary, the longitudinal accelerometer signal voltage ranges from 2.4 to 2.6 volts.
As the vehicle accelerates, the signal voltage increases proportional to the vehicle acceleration with a maximum of
4.7 volts.
As the vehicle decelerates, the signal voltage decreases in proportion to the vehicle deceleration with a minimum
of 0.4 volt.
If the ECU detects that the longitudinal accelerometer signal voltage is changing rapidly under normal driving conditions
or if the ECU determines that the signal voltage is false, the ECU will disregard the signal voltage to prevent a false TCS
brake intervention and will set DTC C0192.
Figure 5B – 61
Diagnostic Aids
Conditions for Running DTC C0192
The ignition is switched on.
The vehicle speed is greater than approximately 40 km/h.
Conditions for Setting DTC C0192
If the ECU detects that the longitudinal accelerometer signal exceeds 0.26g for more than two seconds during a
stable driving condition, the ECU will disregard this signal to prevent a false TCS brake intervention and will log
DTC C0192.
The ECU monitors and stores the longitudinal accelerometer long time filtered driving direction. This is a straight-
ahead direction and its value is called the offset. The ECU will log DTC C0192 if the offset value exceeds 0.23g.
The longitudinal accelerometer signal is limited to an electrical stop of 1.8g. If the ECU detects this signal exceeds
1.5g for more than 500 milliseconds, DTC C0192 sets.
When the vehicle is stationary, the longitudinal accelerometer signal must be less than 0.7g. If the ECU detects
that this signal exceeds 0.7g when the vehicle is stationary, DTC C0192 sets.
Under normal driving conditions, the longitudinal accelerometer signal must not change more than 55g / second. If
the ECU detects that this signal exceeds 55g / second, DTC C0192 sets.

8 AWD ABS-TCS Serial Data
Communication Diagnostics
8.1 Serial Data Communication
Preliminary Diagnostic Table
Circuit Descri ption
The various electronic control modules integrated into the MY 2004 VY AW D Wagon vehicles communicate with each
other through the Serial Data Bus where the Body Control Module (BCM) is the Bus Master. Refer to Section 12J Body
Control Module for further information on the serial data communication.
The Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) transmit and receive data using Class 2
Serial Data protocol while the BCM and other vehicle control modules use the Universal Asynchronous Receive and
Transmit (UART) protocol.
As the Class 2 Serial Data protocol is not compatible with the UART protocol, a Powertrain Interface Module (PIM) is
integrated to the data link communication system to perform the following tasks: (Refer to Section 6C3 Powertrain
Management System for further information on the PIM)
Translate the Class 2 Serial Data transmitted by ECU and the PCM into UART protocol that can be received and
recognised by the BCM and the Instrument Cluster Assembly.
Translate the UART Data transmitted by the BCM into a Class 2 Serial Data protocol that can be receive and
recognised by the ECU and the PCM.
The AWD ABS-TCS Data Link Communication Diagnostics is organised in a logical structure that begins with the AWD
ABS-TCS Data Link Communication Preliminary Tests.
The AWD ABS-TCS Data Link Preliminary Tests identifies and compiles other DTCs that are related to the BCM, PCM,
PIM or Instrument Cluster Assembly serial data communication system to provide a more comprehensive diagnostic
procedure.
A fault condition in the Serial Data Bus circuit may trigger any or all of the following DTCs:
ABS-TCS DTC
DTC U1000 – No Serial Data from PIM
DTC U1016 – No Serial Data from PCM
DTC U1300 and DTC U1301 – Class 2 Data Link Input Too High or Too Low
BCM DTC
DTC 7 – No Serial Data from PCM
DTC 26 – No Serial Data from ABS-TCS
DTC 27 – No Serial Data from Instruments
PIM DTC
U1000 – No Class 2 Serial Data
U1001 – No Serial Data from PCM
U1043 – No Serial Data from ABS-TCS
U1064 – No Serial Data from PCM
Instrume nt Cluster DTC
DTC 8 – No Serial Data from ABS-TCS
DTC 9 – No Serial Data from BCM
DTC 10 – No Serial Data from OCC
DTC 11 – No Serial Data from PCM
DTC 12 – No Serial Data from SDM
DTC 13 – No Instrument Poll from BCM
DTC 14 – No Serial Data
AW D ABS-TCS Page 5B–108
Page 5B–108
Correctly identifying all serial data communication circuit related DTCs provides an overall view of the extent of the fault
condition. The following is an example of a communication circuit DTC diagnostic procedure.
If only DTC U1016 – No Serial Data from PCM is set, the diagnostic procedure will be directed towards testing the
ABS-TCS communication circuit.
If DTC U1016 – No Serial Data from PCM is set together with the following DTCs which shares a common
communication circuit, the PCM may be the cause of the fault condition and diagnostic procedure will be guided to
test the shared communication circuit.
BCM DTC 7 – No Serial Data from PCM
PIM U1001 – No Serial Data from PCM
Instrument Cluster DTC 11 – No Serial Data from PCM
Therefore, the service technician must have a good understanding of the serial data communication system to reduce
diagnostic time and to prevent misdiagnosis.

9 Service Operations
9.1 Safety and Precautionary Measures
The following safety and precautionary
measures must be followed when servicing
and diagnosing the ABS-TCS Braking System.
Otherwise, personal injury and/or improper
braking system operation may occur:
1 If any ABS-TCS component is serviced, the complete ABS-TCS must be checked. Refer to 5.2 AWD ABS-TCS
Main Diagnostic Table.
2 Certain components in the ABS-TCS are not intended to be serviced individually and must be replaced as an
assembly. Attempting to service components, such as the solenoid valves or pump motor in the hydraulic
modulator may result in improper system operation and/or personal injury. Only components with approved
removal and reinstallation procedures described in this Section should be serviced.
3 If the brake hydraulic system is serviced, the brake system must be bled and all brake hydraulic fittings must be
tested for leakage. Refer to Section 5A Service and Parking Brake System.
4 Whenever welding with an electric welding equipment, disconnect the wiring harness connector from the ECU .
Refer to 9.3 ECU /hydraulic modulator Assembly.
5 Never disconnect or reconnect the ECU wiring harness connector when the battery is connected or the ignition is
switched ON.
6 Do not touch the ECU connector pins or soldered components on the ECU circuit board to prevent possible
Electrostatic Discharge damage.
7 When pressure washing engines, do not direct the cleaning nozzle at ABS-TCS components.
8 To avoid wiring connector terminal damage, always use suitable wiring harness test leads (such as those in Tool
No, J39700) when carrying test operation on the ECU or sensor wiring connector.
9 As the ABS-TCS components are extremely sensitive to Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI). Ensure that the
ABS-TCS wiring harness is routed correctly and securely fitted on their mounting clips when performing service
procedures.
10 Due to the sensitive nature of the ABS-TCS circuitry, specific ABS-TCS wiring repair procedures have been
developed. These procedures and instructions are detailed in Section 12P Wiring Diagrams and are the only
recommended and approved wiring repair methods.
11 Ensure that the brake lines and the wheel speed sensor wiring harness connections are assigned correctly.
12 The ECU is calibrated to use tyres of a known rolling radius and pulse rings with a specific number of teeth. The
number of teeth on the pulse rings correspond directly to tyre size. If any of the tyres fitted to the vehicle are larger
or smaller than specified, the ECU will receive false wheel speed signals that could result in personal injury and/or
improper ABS-TCS operation.
13 Do not allow the suspension components to hang by the wheel speed sensor cables.
14 Ensure that all wiring harness connectors are seated correctly.
15 Never disconnect the battery from the vehicle electrical system while the engine is running.
16 Always disconnect the battery from the vehicle electrical system before charging.
17 Do not use a fast charger for starting the vehicle.
18 Ensure that the battery cable terminals are secure.
19 The ECU and the hydraulic modulator must never be disassembled. Repair of either of these two units is by
replacement only. Apart from the brake line connections and the six screws securing the control module to the
hydraulic modulator, no screws at the hydraulic modulator may be loosened. Once any screw is loosened, brake
fluid leakage from the hydraulic modulator may occur.
AW D ABS-TCS Page 5B–117
Page 5B–117
20 Replacement hydraulic modulator assemblies are pre-filled with brake fluid. To avoid unnecessary fluid spillage,
do not remove the sealing plugs from hydraulic modulator ports until the brake fittings are ready for fitment.
21 Once a replacement hydraulic modulator has been fitted, the sealing plugs must be fitted to the original modulator
to prevent entry of dirt.
22 To prevent entry of dirt into the hydraulic modulator ports, ensure that the hydraulic modulator is clean before
disconnecting or reconnecting its brake pipe fittings.
23 Remove the ECU from its packaging only when it is ready to be fitted to the hydraulic modulator.
24 While it is possible to replace the control module assembly without removing the hydraulic modulator from the
vehicle, the ECU spring plate will not seat correctly if not fitted in a horizontal position. Therefore, to ensure the
correct installation of the replacement control module, the ECU /hydraulic modulator assembly must be removed
from the vehicle, prior to disassembly. Refer to 9.3 ECU /hydraulic modulator Assembly.
25 Before installing a new ECU or hydraulic modulator, ensure that the correct type is fitted. Always refer to the latest
spare parts information.
26 Even the slightest trace of mineral oil leads to failure of the brake system. If mineral oil is found in the brake
system or there is a suspicion of mineral oil being in the brake system, the complete brake system must be
thoroughly flushed with the correct type of brake fluid. In addition, the brake master cylinder must be replaced.
27 Do not allow brake fluid to come in contact with the vehicle paintwork as the brake fluid causes paint damage.
28 Store the brake fluid in well-sealed containers as the brake fluid absorbs moisture from the air thus reducing its
boiling point. If the brakes are subjected to a very severe loading, this can lead to vapour-bubble formation in the
brake system which may lead to brake failure.
In addition, the brake fluid absorbs moisture from the atmosphere as it is operated in the vehicle. Therefore, the
brake fluid must be replaced at the time or distance intervals as specified in Section 0B, Lubrication And Service.
29 Only use the specified brake fluid.
AW D ABS-TCS Page 5B–118

axle shaft spring clip, remove the inner axle shaft.
As the axle shaft is removed, a small amount of
lubricant may leak from differential carrier.
5 Clean the area around the seal bore and differential
housing to ensure that no foreign matter enters the
axle shaft needle bearing.

Reinstall
NOTE
The left hand inner axle shaft (1) is shorter in
length than the right hand axle shaft (2).
NOTE
Ensure that the spring clip (3) at the end of the
axle shaft is not damaged and moves freely in
its groove. If necessary, replace the spring clip.
Do not expand the ends of a new clip more than
what is required to allow its installation into the
shaft groove.
1 Lubricate the inner axle shaft seal lips (4) with NLGI
No. 2 Multipurpose grease (lithium soap) grease.
Figure 5B – 102
2 Reinstall the inner axle shaft (1).
To avoid premature seal failure, ensure the
axle shaft splines or its spring clip do not
score or damage the seal lip during
installation.
3 Lightly hit on the end of the axle shaft flange (1) with a
soft faced hammer (2) to compress the spring clip on
the shaft into the clutch cone and side gear splines.
Fully engage the shaft (1) until the clip snaps into the
side gear groove.
