Inspection Procedure

HINT:

When the engine switch is off, the main body ECU may occasionally go into a non-active state called sleep mode. Therefore, before proceeding with the inspection, it is necessary to perform the following step to wake up the ECU:

With the engine switch off, open the driver door. Then (with the engine switch still off) open and close any door several times at 1.5 second intervals.

  1. CHECK STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR (IG2 VOLTAGE) 
    1. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage 

      VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      L33-6 (IG2) - L33-2 (SGND) Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V
      L33-6 (IG2) - L33-2 (SGND) Engine switch off Below 1 V

    OK: REPLACE STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR 

    NG: Go to next step 

  2. INSPECT FUSE (P-J/B, P IG2) 
    1. Remove the P-J/B fuse from the engine room No. 2 junction block.
    2. Remove the P IG2 fuse from the passenger side junction block.
    3. Measure the resistance of the fuses.

      Standard Resistance 

      RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      P-J/B fuse Always Below 1 Ω
      P IG2 fuse Always Below 1 Ω

    NG: REPLACE FUSE 

    OK: Go to next step 

  3. INSPECT IGNITION RELAY NO.2 (IG2) 
    1. Remove the ignition relay No. 2 from the engine room No. 2 junction block.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance 

      RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      3-5 When battery voltage is not applied to terminals 1 and 2 10 kΩ or higher
      3-5 When battery voltage is applied to terminals 1 and 2 Below 1 Ω

    NG: REPLACE IG2 RELAY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (IG2 RELAY - MAIN BODY ECU AND BODY GROUND)

    1. Disconnect the L12 main body ECU connector.
    2. Remove the ignition relay No. 2 from the engine room No. 2 junction block.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance 

      RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      L12-11 (IG2D) - Relay block Ignition relay No. 2 terminal 1 Always Below 1 Ω
      L12-11 (IG2D) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      Relay block Ignition relay No. 2 terminal 2 - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. CHECK MAIN BODY ECU (IG2D OPERATION) 
    Fig 4: Identifying Ignition Relay No. 2

    1. Connect the L12 main body ECU connector.
    2. Remove the ignition relay No. 2 from the engine room No. 2 junction block.
    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage 

      VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      Relay block Ignition relay No. 2 terminal 1 - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V

    NG: REPLACE MAIN BODY ECU 

    OK: Go to next step 

  6. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STEERING LOCK ECU - BATTERY)

    1. Disconnect the L33 steering lock ECU connector.
    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage 

      VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      L33-6 (IG2) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: REPLACE STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR
