HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING

HINT

  1. Use this procedure to troubleshoot the multiplex communication system.
  2. The intelligent tester should be used in step 2.
  1. VEHICLE BROUGHT TO WORKSHOP
  2. DTC CHECK Check for DTCs and note any codes that are output (See «DTC CHECK/CLEAR»(ref-236026-S40908994272006062900000) ). Delete the DTC. Recheck for DTCs. Try to prompt the DTC by simulating the original activity that the DTC suggests. If the DTC does not reoccur, proceed to A. If the DTC reoccurs, proceed to B. B: Go to step 4 A: Go to next step
  3. OVERALL ANALYSIS AND TROUBLESHOOTING See «SYSTEM DIAGRAM»(ref-236026-S34149496872006062900000) See «TERMINALS OF ECU»(ref-236026-S31384667322006062900000)
  4. ADJUST, REPAIR OR REPLACE
  5. CONFIRMATION TEST END

Scheme 107: DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
  1. DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM Inspect the DLC3. HINT: The vehicle's ECM uses ISO 9141-2 for communication. The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 9141-2 format. TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHART Terminal No. Condition Specified Condition 7 (Bus + line) - 5 (Signal ground) During communication Pulse generation 4 (Chassis ground) - Body ground Constant Below 1 ohms 5 (Signal ground) - Body ground Constant Below 1 ohms 16 (B+) - Body ground Constant 9 to 14 V HINT: If the display shows UNABLE CONNECT TO VEHICLE when you have connected the cable of the intelligent tester to the DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON and operated the intelligent tester, there is a problem on the vehicle side or tester side. If communication is normal when the tester is connected to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 of the original vehicle. If communication is still impossible when the tester is connected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the tester itself, so consult the Service Department listed in the tester's instruction manual. Check the battery voltage. Battery voltage: 11 to 14 V If voltage is below 11V, recharge the battery before proceeding.

Scheme 108

Scheme 108: DTC CHECK/CLEAR
  1. CHECK DTC Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3. Turn the ignition switch ON. Read DTCs by following the prompts on the tester screen. HINT: Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual for further details.
  2. CLEAR DTC Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3. Turn the ignition switch ON. Erase the DTCs following the prompts on the tester screen. HINT: Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual for further details.
