    1. Check the brake reservoir tank fluid level. If the level is low, add brake fluid.
    2. Erase the self-diagnosis results and check the self-diagnosis results.
      Self-diagnosis results
      BR FLUID LEVEL LOW

      Is the above displayed in the self-diagnosis display items? 

      YES: GO TO  2.

      NO: Inspection End.

  2. CONNECTOR INSPECTION
    1. Disconnect the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) and brake fluid level switch connectors.
    2. Check the terminals for deformation, disconnection, looseness or damage.

      OK or NG 

      OK: GO TO  3.

      NG: Repair or replace as necessary.

  3. CHECK BRAKE FLUID LEVEL SWITCH
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Check continuity between brake fluid level switch terminals 1 and 2.
      Brake fluid level switch terminals Condition Continuity
      1 - 2 Brake fluid reservoir full No
      Brake fluid reservoir empty Yes

      Is the inspection result normal?
