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.
7
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.
•  Retrieve the BCM DTCs using the M-MDS.
•  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.
8
VERIFY IF OTHER DTCs DISPLAYED
•  Are any other DTCs displayed?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.
No
DTC troubleshooting completed.
