INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (LUGGAGE DOOR MOTOR PULSE RH, LH)
(a) Check the Data List for proper functioning of the luggage door drive gear RH and LH.

Retractable Hardtop





OK:
Value between 12288 to 20480 appears on the screen.
OK -- REPLACE SLIDING ROOF CONTROL ECU
NG -- Continue to next step.
2. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ECU - LUGGAGE DOOR DRIVE GEAR RH)




(a) Disconnect the S18 ECU connector.
(b) Disconnect the L18 gear connector.
(c) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.
3. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ECU - LUGGAGE DOOR DRIVE GEAR LH)




(a) Disconnect the S17 ECU connector.
(b) Disconnect the L17 gear connector.
(c) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. INSPECT LUGGAGE DOOR DRIVE GEAR ASSEMBLY RH (PULSE CIRCUIT OPERATION)




(a) Remove the luggage door drive gear RH Removal.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from the electrical tester to terminal 5 and negative (-) lead to terminal 4.
(c) Connect the electrical tester's positive (+) lead to terminal 5 and negative (-) lead to terminal 4.
(d) Connect 5 1.5 V dry cell batteries in series.
(e) Connect terminal 6 to the dry cell batteries' positive (+) terminal, and terminal 4 to the dry cell batteries' negative (-) terminal.
(f) Connect the battery's positive (+) lead to terminal 1, and negative (-) lead to terminal 3.
(g) Check the output voltage of terminals 4 and 5.
OK:
Pulse is generated while motor is running (refer to the graph)
(h) Reverse the polarity of terminals 1 and 3.




(i) Check the output voltage of terminals 4 and 5.
OK:
Pulse is generated while motor running (refer to the graph)
NG -- REPLACE LUGGAGE DOOR DRIVE GEAR ASSEMBLY LH
OK -- Continue to next step.
