Diagnostic Procedure For In-Vehicle Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Infiniti M45. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

SYMPTOM: In-vehicle sensor circuit is open or shorted. (22 or -22 is indicated on auto amp. as a result of conducting Self-diagnosis STEP-2)

  1. CHECK VOLTAGE BETWEEN IN-VEHICLE SENSOR AND GROUND 
    1. Disconnect in-vehicle sensor connector.
    2. Turn ignition switch ON.
    3. Check voltage between in-vehicle sensor harness connector M68 terminal 2 (LG/B) and ground.

    2-ground: Approx. 5V

    OK or NG 

    1. OK: GO TO 2.
    2. OK: GO TO  4.

  2. CHECK CIRCUIT CONTINUITY BETWEEN IN-VEHICLE SENSOR AND AUTO AMP. 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect auto amp. connector.
    3. Check continuity between in-vehicle sensor harness connector M68 terminal 1 (R/Y) and auto amp. harness connector M119 terminal 11 (R/Y).

    1-11: continuity should exist.

    OK or NG 

    1. OK: GO TO 3
    2. NG: Repair harness or connector

  3. CHECK IN-VEHICLE SENSOR 

    Refer to IN-VEHICLE SENSOR 

    OK or NG 

    1. OK:
      1. Replace auto amp.
      2. Go to self-diagnosisFUNCTION CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE  and perform self-diagnosis STEP-2. Confirm that code no. 20 is displayed.
    2. NG:
      1. Replace in vehicle sensor.
      2. Go to self-diagnosis FUNCTION CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE  and perform self-diagnosis STEP-2. Confirm that code No. 20 is displayed.

  4. CHECK CIRCUIT CONTINUITY BETWEEN IN-VEHICLE SENSOR AND AUTO AMP. 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect auto amp. connector.
    3. Check continuity between in-vehicle sensor harness connector M68 terminal 2 (LG/B) and auto amp. harness connector M119 terminal 3 (LG/B).

      2-3: Continuity should exist. 

    4. Check continuity between auto amp. harness connector M119 terminal 3 (LG/B) and ground.

      3- Ground: Continuity should not exist. 

    OK or NG 

    1. OK:
      1. Replace auto amp.
      2. Go to self-diagnosis FUNCTION CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE  and perform self-diagnosis STEP-2. Confirm that code No. 20 is displayed.
    2. NG: Repair harness or connector.
