INSPECTION PROCEDURE
NOTICE: The back door closer system uses CAN communication. First, follow "How to Proceed with Troubleshooting" and at step "Check Communication Function of CAN Communication System", confirm that there is no malfunction in the CAN communication system. After confirming that B2250 or B2251 is not output, proceed with troubleshooting.

PROCEDURE

1. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Main Body / Data List.
(e) Check if the back door lock functions properly.

Main Body (Main Body ECU (Driver Side Junction Block Assembly))





OK:
The back door functions as specified in the normal condition column.

NG -- REPLACE MAIN BODY ECU (DRIVER SIDE JUNCTION BLOCK ASSEMBLY)
OK -- Continue to next step.

2. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
