Inspection Procedure
- DRIVING TEST
- Start the engine.
- Turn the ECT SNOW switch "OFF" (Normal drive mode).
- Confirm vehicle response by driving from a parked position to fully depressing the accelerator pedal.
- Turn the ECT SNOW switch "ON" and perform the same check as (c).
Confirm that there is a difference between ECT SNOW switch "ON" and "OFF".
- Driving test should be done on a paved road (a nonskid road).
- Make sure not to use the TRAC system when testing a vehicle equipped with one.
OK: There is a difference in acceleration between "ON" and "OFF".
NG: Go to step 2
OK: PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE (SEE PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE )
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR(PATTERN SELECT SWITCH ASSY NO.1 - BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the connector of pattern select switch.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
