Inspection procedure

  1. Check for dtc

  1. Using the intelligent tester (with can vim), check for dtcs and confirm that there are no problems in the can communication system.

Ok: can dtcs are not output.


  1. Read value of intelligent tester (ig power supply)

  1. Connect the intelligent tester (with can vim) to the dlc3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch on and press the intelligent tester main switch on.
  3. Select the item "ig supply" in the data list and read the value displayed on the intelligent tester.

Main body ecu




  1. Inspect fuse (ecu-ig1)

  1. Remove the ecu-ig1 fuse from the instrument panel junction block.
  2. Measure the resistance of the fuse.

Ok: below 1




  1. Check wire harness (battery - power steering ecu and body ground)
