      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      M14-3 (SI) - H64-10 (SBLW) Always Below 1 Ω
      M14-3 (SI) or H64-10 (SBLW) - Other terminals and body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  6

  6. INSPECT AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY 
    1. Connect the M14 rear blower motor control connector.
    2. Connect the M13 rear blower motor with fan sub-assembly connector.
    3. Connect the H64 air conditioning amplifier assembly connector.
    4. Using an oscilloscope, check the waveform.

      Condition
      • Ignition switch ON
      • Blower speed: LO

      OK

      Waveform is similar to that shown in the illustration.

      HINT: 

      The waveform varies with the blower speed.
