Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20 - BRAKE CONTROL


VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM (w/ VDIM) - PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE

If there are no DTCs output and the problem still occurs, check the circuits for each problem symptom in the order given in the table below and proceed to the relevant troubleshooting page.


  • HINT:
Inspect the fuse and relay before investigating the suspected areas as shown in the table below.
Inspect each malfunction circuit in numerical order for the corresponding symptom.
Vehicle Stability Control System:
SymptomSuspected AreaSee page
ABS, BA and/or EBD does not operate 1. Check the DTC again and make sure that the normal system code is output.
2. IG power source circuit
3. Front speed sensor circuit
4. Rear speed sensor circuit
5. Check the brake actuator assembly with the intelligent tester. (Check brake actuator assembly operation using the Active Test function.) If abnormal, check the hydraulic circuit for leakage.
6. If the symptoms still occur even after the above circuits in suspected areas have been inspected and proved to be normal, replace the skid control ECU.
ABS, BA and/or EBD does not operate efficiently 1. Check the DTC again and make sure that the normal system code is output.
2. Front speed sensor circuit
