Inspection steps

CAUTION: Before performing troubleshooting, check the fuse for this circuit.
  1. Clearing diagnostic code
    1. Clear the diagnostic code using the SSM3. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC CODES  )

      Next

  2. DTC check
    1. Use the SSM3 to confirm that diagnostic code B1014 is not being output again. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC CODES  )

      Result

      Result Go to
      If the diagnostic code is being output again A
      If the diagnostic code is not output B

      B: Go to "How to simulate trouble phenomenon". (Refer to PROCEDURES FOR MALFUNCTION PHENOMENON SIMULATION )

      A: Go to next step

  3. Inspection of the wiring harness and connector (Power supply voltage)
    NOTE: For inspection procedures and precautions, please refer to INSPECTION PROCEDURES FOR ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS AND HOW TO PERFORM .
    1. Disconnect the instrument panel junction block assembly connectors 3A and 3E.
    2. Measure the voltage between the terminals.

      Voltage

      Inspection terminals Inspection conditions Standard value
      3A-20 - Chassis ground ACC ON 11 to 14 V
      3E-1 - Chassis ground Always 11 to 14 V

      NG: Repair or replacement of wiring harness or connector

      OK: Go to next step

  4. Inspection of the wiring harness and connector (Ground) (Refer to INSPECTION STEPS  )

    NG: Repair or replacement of wiring harness or connector

    OK: Go to next step

  5. Inspection of the instrument panel junction block assembly itself
    1. Remove the instrument panel junction block assembly. (Refer to REMOVAL  )
    2. Remove the instrument panel junction block assembly from the main body ECM (Network gateway computer).

    3. Measure the resistance between the terminals.

      Resistance

      Inspection terminals Inspection conditions Standard value
      3E-1 - MB-9 (ACC) When battery voltage is not applied between terminals 3A-20 and 3A-12. 10 kΩ or more
      3E-1 - MB-9 (ACC) When battery voltage is applied between terminals 3A-20 and 3A-12. Less than 1 Ω
      3B-18 - MB-11 (GND) Always Less than 1 Ω

      NG: Replacement of the instrument panel junction block assembly (Refer to REMOVAL  )

      OK: Replace the main body ECM (Network gateway computer) (Refer to REMOVAL  )
