Control Unit Input Test/Replacement

NOTE: Before testing, troubleshoot the multiplex integrated control system using B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A (see TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A ).
  1. Remove the roof console (see step 2 on HEADLINER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ) .
  2. Disconnect the 28P connector (A) from the HandsFreeLink control unit (B).

  3. Inspect the connector and socket terminals for a good pin fit to be sure they are all making good contact.
    • If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
    • If the terminals look OK, go to step 4.
  4. With the connector still disconnected, make these input tests at the connector.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, the HandsFreeLink control unit must be faulty; replace it.
