Toyota Sienna Service Manual: Open or Short Circuit in ABS Motor Relay Circuit
DESCRIPTION
The ABS motor relay supplies power to the ABS pump motor. While the ABS & TRAC & VSC are activated, the ECU switches the ABS motor relay ON and operates the ABS pump motor.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (ABS MOTOR RELAY)
(a) Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
(b) Start the engine.
(c) Select the ACTIVE TEST mode on the intelligent tester.
ABS / VSC: 
(d) Check the operation sound of the ABS motor individually when operating it with the intelligent tester.
OK: Operation sound of the ABS motor should be heard.
REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
2 INSPECT NO. 5 RELAY BLOCK (POWER SOURCE TERMINAL)
(a) Remove the VSC MTR relay from the No. 5 R/B.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(c) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage 
3 INSPECT ABS MOTOR RELAY (VSC MTR)
(a) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance 
(b) Apply battery positive voltage between terminals 1 and 2.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance 
4 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ABS MOTOR RELAY - SKID CONTROL ECU)
(a) Check for open or short circuit in harness and connector between the ABS motor relay and skid control ECU.
5 RECONFIRM DTC
(a) Clear the DTCs.
(b) Drive the vehicle at a speed of 6 km/h (4 mph) or more.
(c) Check if the same DTCs are recorded (See page BC- 82).
Result
HINT:
- The skid control ECU inspects the motor relay circuit when the stop light switch is turned off and the vehicle is running at a speed of 6 km/h (4mph) or more.
- It is suspect that the DTCs output was caused by the poor connection of the connector terminal.
REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
6 INSPECT ABS 1 FUSE
(a) Remove the ABS 1 fuse from the FL block.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance 
7 INSPECT ABS MOTOR RELAY (VSC FAIL)
(a) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance 
(b) Apply battery positive voltage between terminals 1 and 2.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance

Open or Short Circuit in ABS Solenoid Relay Circuit
DESCRIPTION
The ABS solenoid relay is built in the brake actuator assembly. This relay
supplies power to each ABS
solenoid. If the initial check is OK, after the ignition switch is turned to t ...

Disposal
1. DISPOSE OF SHOCK ABSORBER ASSEMBLY REAR LH
(a) Fully extend the shock absorber rod.
(b) Using a drill, make a hole in the cylinder as shown in
the illustration to discharge the gas inside the
cylinder.
CAUTION:
When drilling, since the fragments may fly
out, work careful ...
On-vehicle inspection
1. INSPECT BACK WINDOW (DEFOGGER WIRE)
NOTICE:
When cleaning the glass, wipe the glass along the
wire using a soft and dry cloth. Take care not to
damage the wires.
Do not use detergents or glass cleaners including
abrasive ingredients.
When measuring voltage, wr ...
Data list / active test
1. DATA LIST
HINT:
Using the DATA LIST displayed on the intelligent tester,
you can read the value of the switch, sensor, actuator,
etc. without parts removal. Reading the DATA LIST as
the first step of troubleshooting is one way to shorten the
labor time.
Connect the intelligent tester to ...
