STEERING SHIFT SWITCH INSPECTION

id051800802400

1. Remove the driver-side air bag module. (See DRIVER-SIDE AIR BAG MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

2. Connect the negative battery cable.

3. Turn the ignition switch to ON position.

4. Measure the voltage at the steering shift switch.

• When inspecting terminal G for continuity, disconnect the steering shift switch connector.

5. If the value are not as specified in the Terminal Voltage List (Reference), inspect the parts under “Action” and related wiring harnesses.

6. If the parts inspected under "ACTION" are found to be normal but the system still does not operate normally, replace the up or down switch according to the following conditions:

• The voltage is normal when the up switch is on and is abnormal when the down switch is on: Replace the down switch.

• The voltage is normal when the down switch is on and is abnormal when the up switch is on: Replace the up switch.
