How to Clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes - Traction Control System

Memory cancel
Diagnostic trouble codes memorized in the ABS/TCS control unit are canceled by performing the following steps.




1. Connect the TBS terminal to GND at the data link connector.
2. Turn the ignition switch ON.
3. Output all memorized codes.
4. After verifying that the first code is repeated, depress the brake pedal 10 times at intervals of less than one second (1 Sec.)
Diagnostic trouble codes cannot be canceled if the following occur:
^ If intervals of depressing the brake pedal exceed one second (1 sec.).
^ Brake switch has failed.
While performing the memory cancel operation, the ABS/TCS warning light will not illuminate.
When the memory cancel operation is completed, the ABS/TCS warning light comes on for (2-3 seconds), then goes off.
After the memory is canceled, the ABS/TCS control unit performs self-diagnosis.
5. Turn off the ignition switch to reset the control unit.
