Inspection steps

CAUTION: Before performing troubleshooting, check the fuse for this circuit.
  1. Clearing diagnostic code
    1. Clear the diagnostic code using the SSM4. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC CODES )
  2. DTC check
    1. Use the SSM4 to confirm that diagnostic code B1014 is not being output again. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC CODES )
    RESULT DESCRIPTION

    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, refer to INSPECTION PROCEDURES FOR ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS AND HOW TO PERFORM .
    1. Disconnect the instrument panel junction block ASSY connectors 3A and 3E.
    2. Measure the voltage between the terminals.
