HINT: This inspection procedure is a simple troubleshooting which should be carried out on the vehicle during system operation and is based on the assumption that the cause of trouble lies with the system components (except for the wires and connectors, etc.).

Always inspect the trouble taking the following items into consideration.
^ Open or short circuit of the wire harness
^ Connector or terminal connection fault
