3. INSPECT COMMUNICATION FUNCTION OF MULTIPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (BEAN)

(a) Use Techstream to check for normal function of the multiplex communication system.

(1) (ECU not connected, communication line malfunctioning) Without code outputs, proceed to A.

(2) (ECU not connected, communication line malfunctioning) With code outputs, proceed to B.

B -- Go to MULTIPLEX COMMUNICATION SECTION
A -- Continue to next step.

4. CHECK DTC

(a) Check for DTCs and note any codes that are output.

(b) Delete the DTC.

HINT
After DTCs are all cleared, check if the trouble occurs again 6 seconds after the engine switch is turned on (IG).
