DESCRIPTION The skid
control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) is connected
to the combination meter assembly via CAN communication. If any of the following is detected, the brake warning light / red (malfunction) remains on:
- The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly)
connector is disconnected from the brake booster with master cylinder
assembly.
- The brake fluid level is insufficient.
- EBD operation has been disabled.
WIRING DIAGRAM
 CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
NOTICE:
- After replacing the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder
assembly), perform linear solenoid valve offset learning, ABS holding
solenoid valve learning, yaw rate and acceleration sensor zero point
calibration and system information memorization after performing "Reset
Memory".
