DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM





a. Check the TEM output (LED lightening check).
1. Connect the LED to terminals TEM and E1 of DLC2.

NOTE: If connected reversely, the LED does not light.

HINT: Use the LED whose recommended operating current is 10 - 20 mA.

2. Turn the ignition switch ON, and check that the LED lights for about 2 seconds.

HINT: If the LED does not light, inspect the TEM circuit.

b. DTC the check.
1. Check the battery positive voltage.
Battery positive voltage: 10 - 14 V (When is stopped the engine)





2. After driving the vehicle, using SST connect between terminals Tc and E1 of DLC2 or DLC1.
SST 09843-18020

HINT:
^ Do not stop the engine.
^ In this condition, the ignition switch is ON.

NOTE: The wrong connection of the connector may cause malfunction. Use extreme caution when connecting the connector.





3. Connect the LED to terminals TEM and E1 of DLC2.








4. Check the number that the LED blinks.

HINT:
^ When the code is normal, the LED comes on for 0.25 sec. and goes off for 0.25 sec. repeatedly.
^ When more than 2 diagnosis codes are detected, the diagnosis codes are displayed in the order form the smallest number.
^ If no code appears, inspect the diagnostic circuit.
^ Code are explained in the code table.

5. Disconnect the SST from the terminals To and E1 of DLC2 or DLC1.

Confirm that the connected LED is off.
6. When the abnormal code is output, inspect the function, absorber control ECU and input signal.






c. Check the damping force controlling condition.
1. Using SST, connect terminals Ts and E1 of DLC1 with the ignition switch OFF (TEST mode).
SST 09843-18020
2. Start the engine.
In this condition, the absorber control actuator position becomes 1 (Soft).
3. Starting from the above mentioned position, as the brake pedal is depressed, the absorber control actuator position increase (1 -> 2 -> 3 ->... 15 -> 16). At this time, bounce the vehicle and check that the shock absorber is becoming harder.

HINT:
^ To hold the shock absorber control actuator at a specific position, adjust it to the position using the above mentioned procedure then increase the vehicle speed to over 5 kph.
After that the shock absorber control actuator position does not change until the ignition switch is turned OFF.
^ If the absorber control actuator does not operate, inspect the absorber control actuator circuit and absorber control ECU.

4. Disconnect the SST from the terminals Ts and E1 of DLC1.
