  2. If ABS warning light stays on, turn ignition off. Locate 2-pin test connector behind passenger-side kick panel. Install jumper wire between pins on 2-pin connector. See Fig 1 .Turn ignition on (without engine running). Record blinking ABS warning light sequence.

  3. After ignition is turned on, ABS warning light will turn on for one second, then pause for 2 seconds before blinking first code. First code number indicates main code and second code number indicates sub code. See Fig 2 . Three codes can be set at once. To recheck sequence, turn ignition off for a few seconds, and then turn it on again. After trouble codes have been retrieved, conduct appropriate test procedures outlined in flow charts. See ABS SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FLOW CHARTS.
