NOTE: When replacing the ABS and TRACTION actuator assembly, perform zero point calibration (See CALIBRATION  ).
  1. INSPECT VSC WARNING LIGHT 
    1. WHEN USING INTELLIGENT TESTER:
      1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3 and start the engine.
      2. Select the "VSC WARN LIGHT" in the ACTIVE TEST and operate the VSC warning light on the intelligent tester.

      3. Check that "ON" and "OFF" of the VSC warning light are indicated on the combination meter when using the intelligent tester.

        OK: The VSC warning light turns on or off in accordance with the intelligent tester. 

    2. WHEN NOT USING INTELLIGENT TESTER:
      1. Turn the ignition switch off and disconnect the connector from the skid control ECU.
      2. Ground terminal VSCW of the skid control the ECU.
      3. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
      4. Check the VSC warning light.

        OK
