Inspection Procedure

HINT:

Operating the engine switch, any switches or any doors triggers related ECU and sensor communication with the CAN, which causes resistance variation.

1. DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL 
   1. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal before measuring the resistances of the main wire and the branch wire.
      CAUTION: Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.
      NOTE:

      • After the engine switch is turned off, the HDD navigation system requires approximately 6 minutes to record various types of memory and settings. As a result, after turning the engine switch off, wait 6 minutes or more before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
      • When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected (see INITIALIZATION ).
2. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER BRANCH WIRE) 
   1. Disconnect the L77 air conditioning amplifier connector.
   2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance

      NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER BRANCH WIRE OR CONNECTOR (CANH, CANL) 

      OK: Go to next step 

3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND) 
   1. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
      NOTE: When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected (see INITIALIZATION ).
   2. Disconnect the L76 air conditioning amplifier connector.
   3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
      L76-1 (GND) - Body ground	Always	Below 1 Ω

   4. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
      L76-6 (+B1) - Body ground	Always	11 to 14 V
      L76-7 (+B2) - Body ground	Always	11 to 14 V
      L76-5 (IG+) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG)	11 to 14 V

      NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

      OK: REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER  (See REMOVAL )
