Wiring diagram
Inspection procedure
Notice:
- Turn the ignition switch off before measuring the resistances of the
main wire and the branch
wire.
- After the ignition switch is turned off, check that the key reminder
warning system and light
reminder warning system are not in operation.
- Before measuring the resistance, leave the vehicle for at least 1
minute and do not operate the
ignition switch, any switches or doors. If doors need to be opened in order
to check
connectors, open the doors and leave them open.
Hint:
Operating the ignition switch, any switches or any doors triggers related ecu
and sensor communication
with the can, which causes resistance variation.
