DTC C0278/11, C0279/12 ABS Solenoid Relay Circuit

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This ABS solenoid relay (Marking: ABS SOL) supplies power to each ABS solenoid. After the ignition switch
is turned ON, if the initial check is OK, the relay goes on.
DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
Condition 1. or 2. continues for 0.2 sec. or more:
1. IG1 terminal voltage of ABS ECU is 9.5 – 18.5 V, and
C0278/11 when the solenoid relay is ON.*1
2. With solenoid relay ON, when IG1 terminal of ABS ECU S ABS solenoid relay
is less than 9.5 V.*1 S ABS solenoid relay circuit

Immediately after IG switch has been turned ON, when the

C0279/12
solenoid relay is OFF.*2

*1: Solenoid relay contact OFF condition:

All of solenoid terminal voltage is half or less than IG1 terminal voltage.
*2: Solenoid relay contact ON condition:
All of solenoid terminal voltage is half of IG1 terminal voltage or more.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Start the inspection from step 1 in case of using the TOYOTA hand–held tester and start from step 2 in case
of not using the TOYOTA hand–held tester.

1 Check ABS solenoid relay (Marking: ABS SOL) operation.

PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the TOYOTA hand–held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the TOYOTA hand–held tester main switch ON.
(c) Select the ACTIVE TEST mode on the TOYOTA hand–held tester.
CHECK:
Check the operation sound of the ABS solenoid relay when operating it with the TOYOTA hand–held tester.
OK:
The operation sound of the ABS solenoid relay should be heard.

OK Go to step 5.

2 Check voltage between terminal 5 of R/B No. 4 (for ABS solenoid relay (Marking:
ABS SOL)) and body groud.

LOCK PREPARATION:
R/B No. 4 Remove the ABS solenoid relay from the R/B No. 4.
CHECK:
Measure the voltage between terminal 5 of the R/B No. 4 (for
ABS solenoid relay) and body ground.
OK:
Voltage: 10 – 14 V
5 (–) (+)
F10857 NG Check and repair harness or connector be-
tween R/B No. 4 and battery.
