    NOT APPLICABLE (GO TO STEP 5) 

  5. CHECK THE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES 

    HINT:

    • If the system cannot enter the diagnosis mode, inspect each AVC-LAN communication signal and repair or replace problem parts.
    • Even if the malfunction symptom is not confirmed, check for diagnostic trouble codes. This is because the system stores past diagnostic trouble codes.
    • Check and clear past diagnostic trouble codes. Check the diagnostic trouble code and inspect the area the code indicates.

    NEXT:  Go to STEP  9

  7. PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE 
    1. Find the applicable symptom code in the problem symptoms table (See PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE ).

      HINT:

      If the symptom does not recur and no code is output, perform the symptom reproduction method (See HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED SYSTEMS ).

    THERE IS AN APPLICABLE SYMPTOM CODE IN THE TABLE  (GO TO STEP  9)

    THERE IS NO APPLICABLE SYMPTOM CODE IN THE TABLE (GO TO STEP 8) 

  8. CHECK THE ECU TERMINAL ARRANGEMENT BASED ON THE MALFUNCTION SYMPTOM 
  9. CHECK THE CIRCUIT 
    1. Adjust, repair or replace as necessary.
  10. RECHECK THE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
