4. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the DTC set?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Go to Step 4.
STEP 4. Check KOS-ECU connector C-102 and outer tone alarm connector F-13 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are KOS-ECU connector C-102 and outer tone alarm connector F-13 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer to General (Electrical), Harness Connector Inspection. Check that the outer tone alarm works normally.
STEP 5. Check the wiring harness between KOS-ECU connector C-102 (terminal Nos. 35 and 37) and outer tone alarm connector F-13 (terminal Nos. 1 and 2).
NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-32 and F-17 for loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If intermediate connector C-32 and F-17 is damaged, repair or replace the damaged component(s) as described in General (Electrical), Harness Connector Inspection.
