- Diagnosis Circuit

DESCRIPTION

DTC output mode is set by connecting terminals TC and CG of the DLC3.

DTCs are displayed by blinking of the SRS warning light.

HINT
* When each warning light stays blinking, a ground short in the wiring of terminal TC of the DLC3 or an internal ground short in each ECU is suspected.
* A DTC output mode signal is transmitted through CAN communication system to each ECU including the center airbag sensor. Thus when all systems do not enter DTC output mode, there may be an ECM malfunction.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

(a) Check if a CAN communication system DTC is output How to Proceed With Troubleshooting.

Result





B -- REPAIR CIRCUITS INDICATED BY OUTPUT DTCS CAN Communication System
A -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DLC3 - ECM)

(a) Turn the ignition switch off.





(b) Disconnect the A27 ECM connector.

(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:





NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DLC3 - BODY GROUND)

(a) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.





Standard Resistance:





NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TC OF ECM - BODY GROUND)

(a) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.





Standard Resistance:





Result





D -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR OR EACH ECU

C -- REPLACE ECM Removal

B -- REPLACE ECM Removal

A -- REPLACE ECM Removal
