INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK BODY ECU




(a) Disconnect the A24 sensor connector.
(b) Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.
Standard voltage:






NG -- CHECK WIRE HARNESS (SENSOR - BODY GROUND)
OK -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ECU - SENSOR)




(a) Disconnect the A24 sensor connector.
(b) Disconnect the B6 ECU connector.
(c) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. REPLACE AUTOMATIC LIGHT CONTROL SENSOR
OK:
Returns to normal operation.
NG -- PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
OK -- END
4. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (SENSOR - BODY GROUND)




(a) Disconnect the A24 ECU connector.
(b) Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.
Standard voltage:






NG -- CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ECU - SENSOR)
OK -- Continue to next step.

5. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ECU - SENSOR)




(a) Disconnect the A24 sensor connector.
(b) Disconnect the B6 ECU connector.
(c) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK -- PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
6. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ECU - SENSOR)




(a) Disconnect the A24 sensor connector.
(b) Disconnect the B6 ECU connector.
(c) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK -- PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
