Bendix® TABS-6™ Advanced Single-Channel Trailer ABS: Troubleshooting
“Internal Lateral Acceleration Sensor - Mounting Error” Diagnostic Trouble Codes

The purpose of this Bulletin is to assist technicians
when troubleshooting Bendix® TABS‑6™ Advanced
single-channel trailer ABS modules, where an “Internal
Lateral Acceleration Sensor - Mounting Error” (internal
code 14D00, or SID-FMI 99-14, or blink code 8-1), is
causing an illuminated trailer ABS lamp.
P/Ns K027233, K029053, K027235, K032041, K032042,
K027241, K035805, K032108, K041383, and K065528.

This Bulletin covers the potential causes for this DTC.
A1. Check the orientation of the Electronic
Control Unit (ECU) installation.
Each Bendix TABS‑6 Advanced ECU comes
preconfigured for a certain orientation. Use the Bendix®
ACom® Diagnostics software [free software downloads
are available at www.bendix.com] to view the current
configured orientation of the ECU on the Controller
Configuration screen. Then use Figure 1 below to verify
if the TABS‑6 Advanced ECU is installed as configured.
•	

Cancels: NA	

If the configuration matches, go to B.

A2. If the configured orientation does not match the
physical orientation, use the Bendix ACom diagnostic
software to:
•	 change the configured orientation to match the
installation;
•	 verify that the speed sensors are installed correctly
for this configured orientation (see Figure 1); and
•	 perform an End-of-Line Test (EOL Test) using the
software or a Bendix® Trailer Information Module™.
Recheck for any remaining DTCs and return the vehicle
to service.
B. Check if the wheel speed sensors ‘SC’ and
‘SD’ are swapped
This DTC is caused by the ECU comparing the
difference in wheel speed readings between the left
and right wheel speed sensors to cross-check with the
on-board lateral accelerometer. Reversed sensors can
cause a DTC to falsely trigger. Wheel speed sensors
‘SC’ and ‘SD’ locations are ECU-orientation specific
(See Figure 1).

Make any needed changes, and then use the Bendix®
ACom ® Diagnostics software to run the Bendix ®
TABS‑6™ Advanced End-of-Line Test (EOL Test) and
recheck for any other remaining DTCs before returning
the vehicle to service.
C. If Sections A and/or B have not solved the
problem, update the ECU firmware
New versions of ECU firmware with improved
diagnostics may be available; contact your Bendix Tech
Team representative for available “update packages” at
1-800-AIR‑BRAKE (1‑800‑247‑2725), option 2. Where
one of the packages is available, the new firmware
can be downloaded to the ECU using Bendix ACom
Diagnostic software. Enable “update packages” in
Bendix ACom Diagnostic software and install at least
one update package on the PC.
Note: Bendix TABS-6 Advanced update packages
are only able to be programmed into the ABS module
using the SAE J1939 interface. Contact your Bendix
representative to find out more about update packages.

FIGURE 2 - TABS‑6 ADVANCED SINGLE-CHANNEL
MODULE (TABS‑6 ADV)

Background
The Bendix TABS‑6 Advanced module is an integrated single channel trailer ABS/TRSP
controller and modulator for air-braked heavy-duty trailers and semi-trailers. The module
acts as a relay valve during normal braking, but during ABS events, it will intervene to
help improve lateral stability during braking. It can also autonomously apply brakes
when it detects a potential roll over condition. All modules include an Electronic Control
Unit (ECU) and Modulator Relay Valve which are integrated into a single self-contained
2S/1M (two sensor, one modulator) trailer ABS/TRSP unit.
The TABS‑6 Advanced cross checks the on-board lateral acceleration sensor reading
with a lateral acceleration calculated value based on vehicle track width, programmed
orientation and wheel speed sensor differences (left to right). If the two values do not
correspond to each other within predefined limits the lateral Diagnostic Trouble Code
is set. Any of the items used to calculate lateral acceleration (speed sensor readings,
programmed track width and programmed orientation) if incorrect can cause a false
detection of this DTC.
