INDICATOR LIGHT DOES NOT ILLUMINATE [PARKING SENSOR]


id0903z4829600

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

Description

•  The parking sensor indicator does not illuminate (buzzer is normal) when the parking sensor switch/indicator is turned on.
•  The parking sensor indicator does not illuminate (buzzer is normal) even though the detection condition is met.

Possible malfunction

•  Parking sensor switch/indicator malfunction
―  Open circuit or short to ground in wiring harness between climate control unit terminal 1B (with full auto A/C)/clock terminal I (with manual A/C) and parking sensor control module terminal V
―  Open circuit or short to ground in wiring harness between climate control unit terminal 1A (with full auto A/C)/clock terminal H (with manual A/C) and parking sensor control module terminal S
―  Parking sensor switch/indicator malfunction (parking sensor switch/indicator stuck open)
•  Parking sensor switch/indicator malfunction
•  Parking sensor control module malfunction

Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Action

1
INSPECT IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS OPEN CIRCUIT IN PARKING SENSOR SWITCH/INDICATOR SIGNAL WIRING HARNESS
•  Switch the ignition off (LOCK).
•  Disconnect the connectors of the climate control unit and parking sensor control module.
•  Inspect for continuity between the following wiring harnesses:
―  Climate control unit terminal 1B (with full auto A/C)/clock terminal I (with manual A/C) and parking sensor control module terminal V
―  Climate control unit terminal 1A (with full auto A/C)/clock terminal H (with manual A/C) and parking sensor control module terminal S
•  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:
―  Climate control unit terminal 1B (with full auto A/C)/clock terminal I (with manual A/C) and parking sensor control module terminal V
―  Climate control unit terminal 1A (with full auto A/C)/clock terminal H (with manual A/C) and parking sensor control module terminal S
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.

INSPECT IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS SHORT TO GROUND IN PARKING SENSOR SWITCH/INDICATOR SIGNAL WIRING HARNESS
•  Inspect for continuity between the following wiring harnesses:
―  Parking sensor control module terminal V and ground
―  Parking sensor control module terminal S and ground
•  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 V and ground
―  Parking sensor control module terminal S and ground
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.

INSPECT PARKING SENSOR SWITCH/INDICATOR
•  Reconnect all the disconnected connectors.
•  Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
•  Measure the voltages at parking sensor control module terminals S and V when the parking sensor switch is turned off (indicator turns off).
•  Is terminal S battery voltage and is terminal V approx. 5 V?
Yes
Replace the climate control unit (with full auto A/C)/clock (with manual A/C).
Note
•  The parking sensor switch/indicator is integrated with the climate control unit (with full auto A/C)/clock (with manual A/C).
No
Replace the parking sensor control module.
