Diagnostic procedure
Step |
Inspection |
Action |
|
---|---|---|---|
1
|
INSPECT BONNET LATCH SWITCH CONNECTOR
• Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
• Disconnect the negative battery cable.
• Disconnect the bonnet latch switch connector.
• Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
• Is there any malfunction?
|
Yes
|
Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 7.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
2
|
VERIFY IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS BONNET LATCH SWITCH POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT OR GROUND CIRCUIT
• Verify that the bonnet latch switch connector is disconnected.
• Reconnect the negative battery cable.
• Measure the voltage at the bonnet latch switch terminal A (wiring harness-side).
• Is the voltage 0 V?
|
Yes
|
A malfunction in power supply circuit can be considered.
• Go to Step 5.
|
No
|
A malfunction in ground circuit can be considered.
• Go to the next step.
|

3
|
INSPECT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT IN BONNET LATCH SWITCH GROUND CIRCUIT
• Verify that the bonnet latch switch connector is disconnected.
• Disconnect the negative battery cable.
• Inspect for continuity between bonnet latch switch terminal B (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
• Is there continuity?
|
Yes
|
Go to the next step.
|
No
|
Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit, then go to Step 7.

4
|
INSPECT BONNET LATCH SWITCH
• Inspect the bonnet latch switch.
• Is there any malfunction?
|
Yes
|
Replace the bonnet latch switch, then go to Step 7.
|
No
|
Go to Step 7.
|
||
5
|
INSPECT BCM CONNECTOR
• Disconnect the negative battery cable.
• Disconnect the BCM connector.
• Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
• Is there any malfunction?
|
Yes
|
Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 7.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
6
|
VERIFY IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS BCM OR BONNET LATCH SWITCH POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT
• Reconnect the BCM connector.
• Reconnect the negative battery cable.
• Measure the voltage at the BCM terminal 1B (wiring harness-side).
• Is the voltage 0 V?
|
Yes
|
A malfunction in BCM can be considered.
• Go to the next step.
|
No
|
A malfunction in power supply circuit can be considered.
• Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit, then go to the next step.

VERIFY DTC TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED
• Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors.
• Reconnect the negative battery cable.
• Clear the DTC for the BCM using the M-MDS.
(See CLEARING DTC [BCM].)
• Retrieve the BCM DTCs using the M-MDS.
(See DTC INSPECTION [BCM].)
• Is the same DTC displayed?
|
Yes
|
Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
• If the malfunction recurs, replace the BCM.
Go to the next step.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
