Inspection Procedure 1: Check the hands free-ECU power supply circuit.



caution Before replacing the ECU, ensure that the power supply circuit, the earth circuit and the communication circuit are normal.

CIRCUIT OPERATION



  • The hands free-ECU is energised via the fusible link.
  • The ACC signal is received through the radio and CD player.

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Malfunction of the hands free-ECU
  • Malfunction of the radio and CD player
  • Damaged harness wires and connectors

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. Resistance measurement at hands free-ECU connector (GND terminal).


(1)Disconnect hands free-ECU connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2)Check the continuity between GND terminal and earth.
OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 3.
Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check of open circuit in GND line between hands free-ECU connector and body earth.


Q. Is the check result normal?

The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.

STEP 3. Voltage measurement at hands free-ECU connector (+B terminal).


(1)Disconnect hands free-ECU connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2)Measure the voltage between +B terminal and body earth.
OK: System voltage

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 5.
Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check of short to power supply, short to earth, and open circuit in +B line between fusible link and hands free-ECU connector.


Q. Is the check result normal?

The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.

STEP 5. Voltage measurement at hands free-ECU connector (P-ON terminal).


(1)Disconnect hands free-ECU connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2)Turn the ignition switch to "ACC" position.
(3)Measure the voltage between P-ON terminal and body earth.
OK: System voltage

Q. Is the check result normal?

Replace the hands free-ECU.
Go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Check of short to power supply, short to earth, and open circuit in P-ON line between hands free-ECU connector and radio and CD player connector.


Q. Is the check result normal?

Replace the radio and CD player.
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
