System Inspection

INSPECTION







1. Built-in Type Power Amplifier:
INSPECT RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY CIRCUIT
Disconnect the connectors from the radio receiver assembly, and inspect the connector on the wire harness side.







2. Separate Type Power Amplifier:
INSPECT RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY CIRCUIT
Disconnect the connectors from the radio receiver assembly, and inspect the connector on the wire harness side.

If the circuit is not as specified, inspect the circuits connected to other parts.

HINT: Check the wire harness between radio receiver assembly and the CD auto changer, between radio receiver assembly and power amplifier.







3. Separate Type Power Amplifier:
INSPECT POWER AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT
Disconnect the connector from power amplifier and inspect the connector on the wire harness side.

If the circuit is not as specified, inspect the circuits connected to other parts.

GLASS PRINTED ANTENNA INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTE:
- When cleaning the glass, use soft dry cloth, and wipe the glass in the direction of the wire.
Take care not to damage the wires.
- Do not use detergents or glass cleaners with abrasive ingredients.




- In order not to damage the glass printed antenna, wrap up the tip of the tester stick with aluminum foil as shown in the illustration and check by holding the aluminum foil with a finger.




By placing and moving the tester stick along the glass printed antenna, check if continuity exists.






HINT:
Matching module is built in the bus bar of the glass printed antenna (main terminal side) of CAMRY SOLARA and no continuity exists between the terminal and the antenna. Therefore, for the continuity checking of the glass printed antenna on the main antenna side of CAMRY SOLARA, place one probe of the tester on the position beside the bus bar (position shown in the illustration) and check by making the other probe of the tester move along.




5. Coupe:
GLASS PRINTED ANTENNA REPAIR PROCEDURE
a. Clean the broken wire tips with grease, wax and silicone remover.
b. Place the masking tape along both sides of the wire for repair.
c. Thoroughly mix the repair agent (Dupont paste No. 4817).




d. Using a fine tip brush, apply a small amount of the agent to the wire.
e. After a few minutes, remove the masking tape.




6. Convertible:
INSPECT CONVERTIBLE ROOF COURTESY SWITCH
a. Check that continuity exists between terminals 1 and 2 in the ON position (switch pin released : opened roof).
b. Check that no continuity exists between terminals 1 and 2 in the OFF position (switch pin pushed in : closed roof).

If the operation is not as specified, replace the switch.
