  • Is there any malfunction?
Yes Repair or replace the connector or terminal, then go to Step 7.
No Go to the next step.
3 INSPECT RAIN SENSOR/AUTO LIGHT SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND 
  • Inspect for continuity between auto light/wiper control module terminal 2E (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
  • Is there continuity?
Yes Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground, then go to Step 7.
No Go to the next step.
4 INSPECT RAIN SENSOR/AUTO LIGHT SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY 
  • Connect the negative battery cable.
  • Switch the ignition to ON (engine off).

  • Is there any voltage?
Yes Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to power supply, then go to Step 7.
No Go to the next step.
5 INSPECT RAIN SENSOR/AUTO LIGHT SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT 
  • Switch the ignition to off.
  • Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  • Inspect for continuity between auto light/wiper control module terminal 2E (wiring harness-side) and rain sensor/auto light 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 7.
6 PERFORM DTC INSPECTION 
Yes Replace the rain sensor/auto light sensor, then go to the next step.
(See RAIN SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
No Go to Step 8.
7 VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED
