MICU Input Test

NOTE:
  • Before testing, make sure the turn signal/hazard warning lights work properly.
  • Before testing, check the No. 1 (15 A), No. 20 (15 A), No. 22 (7.5 A), No. 27 (30 A), No. 35 (15 A), No. 36 (15 A), No. 38 (15A), No. 45 (7.5 A), No. 49 (15 A), No. 50 (15 A), and No. 60 (50 A) fuses in the under-dash fuse/relay box.
  • There are two circuits that each have a pair of fuses (No. 35 and No. 49 fuses. No. 36 and No. 50 fuses). If one fuse is blown, make sure to check the other fuse in the same circuit. If necessary, replace the damaged fuse(s).
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  2. Remove the fuse access panel (see FUSE ACCESS PANEL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ), and remove the driver's dashboard lower cover (see FUSE ACCESS PANEL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ).
  3. Disconnect under-dash fuse/relay box connectors A, B, C, E, F, K, M, N, Q, and W.
    NOTE: All connector views are shown from wire side of female terminals.

  4. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are ail 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 5.
  5. With the connectors still disconnected, do the following input tests:
    • 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 6.
