―  Poor ground (looseness, disengagement)
―  Rear vehicle monitoring control module malfunction (internal malfunction)
•  RVM warning indicator light illumination circuit disabled.
―  RVM warning indicator light malfunction
―  Open or short circuit in wiring harness between rear vehicle monitoring control module (RH) and RVM warning indicator light
―  Rear vehicle monitoring control module (RH) internal malfunction (RVM warning indicator light illumination circuit disabled)
•  Instrument cluster does not illuminate RVM indicator light (green).
―  Instrument cluster internal malfunction (RVM indicator light (green) illumination circuit disabled)

Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Action

1
DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS RVM INDICATOR LIGHT (GREEN) OR RVM WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT ILLUMINATION CIRCUIT
•  Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
•  Verify RVM indicator light (green) condition.
•  Does the RVM indicator light (green) illuminate?
Yes
Go to Step 3.
No
Go to the next step.
2
DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS REAR VEHICLE MONITORING CONTROL MODULE OR INSTRUMENT CLUSTER RELATED
•  Illuminate all the indicator lights and warning lights in the instrument cluster using the active command modes WL+IL in the M-MDS.
•  Does the RVM indicator light (green) illuminate?
Yes
Replace the rear vehicle monitoring control module (LH).
No
Replace the instrument cluster.
3*
DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS REAR VEHICLE MONITORING CONTROL MODULES OR RVM WARNING INDICATOR LIGHTS
•  Inspect the following:
RVM warning indicator light (RH) related:
―  RVM warning indicator light (RH)
―  Wiring harness between RVM warning indicator light (RH) terminal G and rear vehicle monitoring control module (RH) terminal I
―  Wiring harness between RVM warning indicator light (RH) terminal H and rear vehicle monitoring control module (RH) terminal H
RVM warning indicator light (LH) related:
―  RVM warning indicator light (LH)
―  Wiring harness between RVM warning indicator light (LH) terminal G and rear vehicle monitoring control module (RH) terminal B
―  Wiring harness between RVM warning indicator light (LH) terminal H and rear vehicle monitoring control module (RH) terminal F
•  Is any malfunction verified?
Yes
•  Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a mid-connector between the RVM warning indicator light and rear vehicle monitoring control module.
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 a open circuit or 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*
INSPECT REAR VEHICLE MONITORING CONTROL MODULE (LH) POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM
•  Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on).
•  Measure the voltage at rear vehicle monitoring control module (LH) terminal G.
•  Is the voltage B+?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
•  Inspect the C/U IG1 15 A fuse.
If the fuse is burned out:
•  Inspect and repair the wiring harness between the C/U IG1 15 A fuse and rear vehicle monitoring control modules (RH/LH) terminal G for a short circuit to the ground system.
If the fuse is not damaged or burned out:
•  Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a mid-connector between IG relay terminal 1B and rear vehicle monitoring control modules (RH/LH) terminal G.
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.
5*
INSPECT REAR VEHICLE MONITORING CONTROL MODULE (LH) GROUND SYSTEM
•  Switch the ignition off (LOCK).
•  Disconnect the rear vehicle monitoring control module (LH) connector.
•  Verify continuity between rear vehicle monitoring control module (LH) vehicle wiring harness-side connector terminal E and ground.
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Replace the rear vehicle monitoring control module (LH).
No
Inspect and repair the ground point for looseness, disengagement, or lifting.
Inspect and repair the wiring harness for an open circuit.
