BENDIX EC-30 ABS-ATC CONTROLLER Operating instructions

INSTRUCTIONS
ALWAYSUSEEXTREMECAUTIONWHENWORKINGON
ORAROUND VEHICLES.
START UP: Whenpowerisappliedtheantilockandtraction
dashwarninglampswillilluminateforaperiodof2.5seconds
while the electronic control unit (ECU) is performing a self
check, and “Chuff” test. If a trailer being towed has PLC,
the trailer dash lamp will illuminate for 2.5 seconds then
turn off unless a fault is indicated. The ABS and traction
control modulators will be energized during the Chuff test.
It is recommended during the initial start up that the brakes
be applied to audibly hear the modulators exhaust during
the “Chuff’ test.
SERVICE NEEDED: Whenan issue isdetectedat start up,
the dash lights will flash and remain illuminated. When a
dynamicwheelspeed issue is detected the dash lamps will
illuminateasearlyas10mph,indicatingawheelspeedissue.
The dash lamps notify the driver that all or part of theABS
function has been disengaged and standard air braking is
ineffect. TheECUwillautomaticallyreset most intermittent
codes (self healing). In most instances, if the intermittent
code has occurred more than five times the issue will be
latched and require a magnetic reset. The area of concern
will always be identified in the diagnostic display.
TRACTION FUNCTION: The ECU monitors wheel spin.
When a spin condition exist, the traction dash lamp will
blink continuously indicating the traction control system
is active. IF SERVICING THE VEHICLE DRIVE LINE,
TRACTIONSERVICEENABLE/DISABLESWITCHMUST
BE DISABLED.
(The traction dash lamp will be illuminated)
RESET: TheECUcanbemagneticallyresetbymomentarily
holdingamagnetagainst theRESETareaon thecontroller.
SELF CONFIGURING: During self configuring the ECU
will automatically determine the number of sensors and if
electronic engine equipped. The ECU will also determine if
the vehicle is traction equipped ONLY if the traction switch
is toggled prior to magnetically self configuring. Holding a
magnetagainsttheRESETarea for 30 seconds completes
self configuring.
BLINK CODE ACTIVATION: The ECU will provide blink
code diagnostics through the use of the blink code switch.

Reset Active DTC Codes
To display history DTCcodes, press the blink code switch two times.
Following activation, there will be a 3 second delay followed by a blink
code display of all history DTCcodes.
To reset active DTCcodes, press the blink code switch three times.
Following activation, there will be a 3 second delay followed by a blink
code message of:
1-1, (System Fully Operational - No DTCs Detected)
or,
A blink code display of all active DTCcodes.
The ABS warning lamp will stay on if active DTCs are still present.
Resetting active DTCcodes with blink code diagnostics does not clear
information from DTChistory. DTC history can be retrieved by using
blink code diagnostics or by using a diagnostic tool.

Most Commonly Encountered Problems
That Result In LED’s Being Illuminated
Repair or Replace Components as Necessary
If Traction Dash Lamp Only Illuminated, Check/Repair These Items
First:
1. Abraded or cut wires in the convoluted tubing near frame clamps.
2. Cut or corroded wires near sharp frame members and frame mounted
modulators.
3. Wire jacket worn through from overlapping sensor and modulator
wires near frame members and frame mounted modulators.
4. Corroded connectors and connections not properly sealed or damaged
seals.
5. Damaged connector latches or connectors not completely seated to
mating assemblies.
6. Terminals not completely latched or seated into connectors.
7. Excessive sensor air gap, sensor clip tension, or excessive bearing
end play (gently push sensor against wheel hub, or readjust bearings.)
8. Damage to exposed wires exiting or entering the convoluted tubing.
9. Worn, chipped or damaged sensor or modulator.
10. Non functioning antilock controller.
1. Traction enable/disable switch in wrong position.
2. Loss of traction engine serial communication (check service manual).
3. Traction solenoid not connected, or exceeds resistance range.
Contacts above should have no continuity to ground, except contacts A1, A2, A3
of 30-pin connector. Contacts B1, K2, and K3 supply power to the EC-30 controller connector
