NO DETECTION SOUND/LOW VOLUME [PARKING SENSOR]


id0903z4829500

Note
•  If there is any vehicle malfunction complaint lodged by a customer, perform FOREWORD [PARKING SENSOR] malfunction diagnosis according to the troubleshooting procedure. (See FOREWORD [PARKING SENSOR].)

Description
The volume of the detection sound from the buzzer decreases/the detection sound does not activate.
Possible Causes
•  Volume adjustment of buzzer is at minimum
•  Buzzer circuit malfunction
―  Open or short circuit in wiring harness between parking sensor control module terminal R and parking sensor buzzer terminal B
―  Open circuit in wiring harness between parking sensor control module terminal T and parking sensor buzzer terminal A
•  Parking sensor buzzer malfunction
•  Parking sensor control module malfunction


Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Action

1
ADJUST BUZZER VOLUME
•  Adjust the buzzer volume.
•  Was the malfunction corrected?
Yes
Inspection completed (buzzer volume adjustment malfunction).
No
Go to the next step.
2
INSPECT WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN PARKING SENSOR CONTROL MODULE AND PARKING SENSOR BUZZER FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
•  Switch the ignition off.
•  Disconnect the negative battery cable.
•  Disconnect the connectors of the parking sensor buzzer and parking sensor control module.
•  Inspect for continuity between the following wiring harnesses:
―  Parking sensor control module terminal R and parking sensor buzzer terminal B
―  Parking sensor control module terminal T and parking sensor buzzer terminal A
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
•  Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a mid-connector between the following wiring harnesses:
―  Parking sensor control module terminal R and parking sensor buzzer terminal B
―  Parking sensor control module terminal T and parking sensor buzzer terminal A
If there is a mid-connector
―  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the mid-connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the mid-wiring harness for a open circuit.
―  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a malfunction.
If there is no mid-connector
―  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a malfunction.
3
INSPECT WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN PARKING SENSOR CONTROL MODULE AND PARKING SENSOR BUZZER FOR SHORT TO GROUND
•  Inspect for continuity between the following wiring harnesses:
―  Parking sensor control module terminal R and parking sensor buzzer terminal B
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
•  Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a mid-connector between the following wiring harnesses:
―  Parking sensor control module terminal R and parking sensor buzzer terminal B
―  Parking sensor control module terminal T and parking sensor buzzer terminal A
If there is a mid-connector
―  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the mid-connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the mid-wiring harness for a short to ground.
―  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a malfunction.
If there is no mid-connector
―  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a malfunction.
No
Go to the next step.
4
DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS PARKING SENSOR BUZZER OR PARKING SENSOR CONTROL MODULE
•  Inspect the parking sensor buzzer.
•  Is the parking sensor buzzer normal?
Yes
Replace the parking sensor control module.
No
Replace the parking sensor buzzer.
