Troubleshooting - B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode D
Do this diagnosis if a component that is controlled by the B-CAN system does not work or come on.
- If the component does not turn off or stop, go to B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE C .
- See the B-CAN system unit input/output index for a list of input and output devices and the control units that monitor the input and control the output devices (see HDS INPUTS AND COMMANDS ).
- Check the fuse of the malfunctioning output device.
Is the fuse OK?
YES -Go to next step.
NO -Replace the fuse. If the fuse blows again, repair a short to ground on the fuse circuit of the malfunctioning device.
- Check for DTCs by selecting the MODE MENU from the HDS.
Are any DTCs indicated?
YES -Go to B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A
NO -Go to next step.
- Turn ON the switch that controls the malfunctioning component.
- Select the applicable system from the system MODE MENU, then select DATA LIST, and check the output signal for the malfunctioning component.
Is there an output signal?
YES -Go to next step.
NO -Go to step 9.
- Check the relay and ground that controls the device that does not work, if applicable. If the relay and ground test OK, then check for an open or a short in the circuit for the malfunctioning component.
Are the relay and circuit OK?
YES -Go to next step.
NO -Replace the relay or repair the wire circuit.
- Do the function test for the malfunctioning component.
Does the output device pass the function test?
YES -Go to next step.
NO -Replace the component.
- With the malfunctioning output device connected, connect a voltmeter between the malfunctioning output device input and the ground wire that the control unit uses to control the output device circuit.
- Select FUNCTIONAL TEST from the MODE MENU, and do the forced operation test of the malfunctioning component.
Is there a change in voltage (12 V to 0 V or 0 V to 12 V)?
YES -Inspect the ground for the component. If OK, replace the component.
NO -Replace the control unit that controls the malfunctioning component.
- Select DATA LIST from the MODE MENU, and make sure the switch signal input for the malfunctioning system indicates a change when operated.
Does the switch input indicate ON when the switch is ON?
YES -Replace the control unit that controls the malfunctioning component.
NO -Go to next step.
- Check the switch and its ground (if applicable), then check for an open or a short in the wire between the switch and the control unit that monitors it.
Are the switch and the wire harness OK?
YES -Replace the control unit that monitors the switch.
NO -Replace the switch, or repair/replace the wire harness.
