      2. Measure the voltage according to the following chart.
        STANDARD VALUE SPECIFICATION - VOLTAGE

        Inspection terminals (Terminal symbol) Inspection conditions Standard value
        D45-3 (CLTB) - D45-6 (CLTE) IG OFF →IG ON 11 to 14V
      3. Measure the resistance according to the following chart.
        STANDARD VALUE SPECIFICATION - RESISTANCE

        Inspection terminals (Terminal symbol) Inspection conditions Standard value
