- Reconnect the A32 hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
Result
Result Proceed to 9 V or higher A Below 9 V B
Result:
B
REPLACE ECM. Refer to REMOVAL [12/2019 - 10/2022] , or refer to REMOVAL [10/2022 - 11/2023]
Result:
A
See step 8
- Disconnect the A32 hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
- INSPECT RELAY (IG2 NO. 1)
- Remove the IG2 NO. 1 relay from the No. 1 engine room relay block and No. 1 junction block assembly.
*1 No. 1 Engine Room Relay Block and No. 1 Junction Block Assembly *2 IG2 NO. 1 Relay - Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 3 - 5 Auxiliary battery voltage not applied between terminals 1 and 2 10 kΩ or higher Auxiliary battery voltage applied between terminals 1 and 2 Below 1 Ω - Install the IG2 NO. 1 relay.
Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPLACE RELAY (IG2 NO. 1)
Result:
OK
See step 9
- Remove the IG2 NO. 1 relay from the No. 1 engine room relay block and No. 1 junction block assembly.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU - IG2 NO. 1 RELAY)
- Disconnect the A32 hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
- Remove the IG2 NO. 1 relay from the No. 1 engine room relay block and No. 1 junction block assembly.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Hybrid Vehicle Control ECU)Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A32-35 (IG2) - Body ground Ignition switch off 1 V or less - Install the IG2 NO. 1 relay.
- Reconnect the A32 hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
OK
CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
- Check for intermittent problems.
Refer to CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS [12/2019 - 11/2023]
- Check the connection and terminal contact pressure of the connectors and wire harnesses between the hybrid vehicle control ECU and the IG2 NO. 1 relay.
