Control Unit Input Test
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2017 Honda Odyssey, 2016 Honda Odyssey, 2015 Honda Odyssey, 2014 Honda Odyssey, and 2013 Honda Odyssey. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Remove the HandsFreeLink control unit (A) (see HANDSFREELINK CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ).
- Inspect the connector (B) and the socket (C) terminals for a good pinfit 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 3.
- Reconnect the connector, and 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, go to step 4.HANDSFREELINK CONTROL UNIT TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
Cavity Wire Color Test Condition Test: Desired Result Possible Cause if Desired Result is not Obtained 16 BLK Ignition switch in ACC (I) or ON (II) Measure the voltage to body ground:
There should be less than 0.2 V.- Poor ground (G501)
- An open in the wire
31 PUR Ignition switch in ACC (I) or ON (II) Measure the voltage to body ground:
There should be battery voltage.- Blown No. C13 (7.5 A) fuse in the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box
- An open in the wire
32 ORN Under all conditions Measure the voltage to body ground:
There should be battery voltage.- Blown No. B15 (20 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box
- An open in the wire
- Disconnect the 32P connector again, and make this input test at the connector.
If the input test proves OK, the HandsFreeLink control unit is faulty, replace it.
