- INSPECT FUSE (ECU-IG NO. 2)
- Remove the ECU-IG No. 2 fuse from the instrument panel J/B.
- Measure the resistance of the fuse.
Standard resistance:
Below 1 Ω
NG: REPLACE FUSE
OK: Go to Next Step
- CHECK WIRE HARNESS (AFS ECU - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the A14 ECU connector.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Measure the voltage and resistance of the wire harness side connector.
Standard voltage
