Diagnostic Procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
CONFIRM PCM DTC
•  Are any DTCs present?

No
Go to the next step.
2
INSPECT AUTO LIGHT/WIPER CONTROL MODULE CONNECTOR AND TERMINALS
•  Switch the ignition to off.
•  Disconnect the negative battery cable.
•  Disconnect the auto light/wiper control module connector.
•  Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, and corrosion).
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the connector or terminals, then go to Step 4.
No
Go to the next step.
3
INSPECT AUTO LIGHT/WIPER CONTROL MODULE POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT OR SHORT TO GROUND
•  Auto light/wiper control module connector is disconnected.
•  Reconnect the negative battery cable.
•  Switch the ignition to ON.
•  Measure the voltage between the auto light/wiper control module terminal A (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
•  Is the voltage B+?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Inspect the METER 15 A fuse.
•  If the fuse is melt:
―  Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground.
―  Replace the fuse.
•  If the fuse is deterioration:
―  Replace the fuse.
•  If the fuse is normal:
―  Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit.
Go to the next step.
