Test Description

The number below refers to the step number in the diagnostic procedures.

  1. 1

    Service the ABS before diagnosing for a misfire, because an actual engine misfire may or may not exist. The following 2 examples illustrate how this DTC can be set with or without an actual engine misfire:
    • There was an actual engine misfire during an ABS malfunction.
    • The vehicle operator drove on a rough road, the ABS could not detect this due to a malfunction, and the PCM interpreted the variations in crankshaft speed caused by the rough road as a misfire.
