DTC U2030 DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP INSPECTION ACTION
1 INSPECT RAIN SENSOR CONNECTOR 
  • Turn the ignition switch off.
  • Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  • Disconnect the rain sensor connector.
  • Inspect the rain sensor connector terminals for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, and corrosion.)
  • Is there any malfunction?
Yes Repair or replace the terminal, then go to Step 6.
No Go to the next step.
2 INSPECT AUTO LIGHT/WIPER CONTROL MODULE CONNECTOR 
  • Disconnect the auto light/wiper control module connector.
  • Inspect the auto light/wiper control module connector terminal for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, and corrosion.)
  • Is there any malfunction?
Yes Repair or replace the terminal, then go to Step 6.
No Go to the next step.
3 INSPECT RAIN SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT 
  • Inspect for continuity between auto light/wiper control module terminal 2E (wiring harness-side) and rain sensor terminal C (wiring harness-side.)
  • Is there continuity?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit, then go to Step 6.
4 INSPECT RAIN SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GND 
  • Inspect for continuity between auto light/wiper control module terminal 2E (wiring harness-side) and body GND.
  • Is there continuity?
Yes Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to GND, then go to Step 6.
No Go to the next step.
5 INSPECT RAIN SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY 
  • Connect the negative battery cable.
  • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine off.)
  • Measure the voltage at auto light/wiper control module terminal 2E (wiring harness-side.)
  • Can the voltage be measured?
Yes Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to power supply, then go to the next step.
No Replace the Rain sensor, then go to the next step. (Refer to RAIN SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
6 VERIFY DTC  Yes Replace the auto light/wiper control module, then go to the next step. (Refer to AUTO LIGHT/WIPER CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
No Go to the next step.
7 VERIFY THAT NO OTHER DTCs ARE PRESENT 
  • Are there other DTCs output?
Yes Perform the corresponding DTC inspection. (Refer to DTC TABLE [AUTO LIGHT/WIPER CONTROL MODULE] .)
No DTC troubleshooting completed.
