    REPAIR CIRCUITS INDICATED BY OUTPUT DTCS. Refer to  DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART [12/2019 - 10/2021]  , or refer to  DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART [10/2021 - 11/2023] 

    Result: 

    A 

    See step  2

  2. INSPECT BRAKE BOOSTER WITH ACCUMULATOR PUMP ASSEMBLY 
    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

      (Brake Booster with Accumulator Pump Assembly)
    2. Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.

      OK

      The connector is securely connected.

    3. Disconnect the A9 brake booster with accumulator pump assembly connector.
    4. Check both the connector case and the terminals for deformation and corrosion.

      OK

      No deformation or corrosion.

    5. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1 (BM1) - 2 (GND1) Always 10 Ω or less

      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE BRAKE BOOSTER WITH ACCUMULATOR PUMP ASSEMBLY. Refer to  REMOVAL [12/2019 - 10/2022]  , or refer to  REMOVAL [10/2022 - 11/2023] 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. READ VALUE USING GTS (ACCUMULATOR PRESSURE) 
    1. Reconnect the A9 brake booster with accumulator pump assembly connector.
    2. Disconnect the A43 brake pedal stroke sensor assembly connector.
    3. Depress the brake pedal several times to operate the pump motor, then wait until it stops.
    4. After the pump motor stops, wait for 30 seconds, then check the drop in the accumulator pressure sensor output value and the state of the pump motor.

      The drop in the accumulator pressure sensor output value is 2.50 MPa or more 30 seconds after the pump motor stops, or the pump motor operates within 30 seconds after the pump motor stops. B

    Result: 

    A 

    USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [12/2019 - ] 

    Result:

  4. READ VALUE USING GTS (SERVO PRESSURE) 
    1. Turn the ignition switch off.
    2. Reconnect the A43 brake pedal stroke sensor assembly connector.
    3. Perform the Active Test and operate the linear solenoid (SLR) in the brake booster with master cylinder assembly.
    4. Check that the servo pressure output value does not increase when performing the Active Test.

      The servo pressure output value does not increase when performing the Active Test.

      HINT: 

      • If the servo pressure output value increases, an internal brake fluid leak in the brake booster with master cylinder assembly is suspected.
      • Perform the Active Test with the current set to maximum.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      The servo pressure output value increases. A
      The servo pressure output value does not increase. B

    Result:
