    The document outlines the process for troubleshooting electronic control unit (ECU) systems, including checking wire harnesses, connectors, continuity, resistance, and replacing the ECU if needed.

    The steps include connecting and inspecting connectors and terminals, checking continuity and resistance to identify open and short circuits, visually inspecting connectors, and checking and replacing the ECU if issues are found with it.

    Connectors should be accessed from the rear if possible, mini test leads may be needed, care should be taken to not deform water resistant connectors, and terminals should not come out when lightly pulled.

    CONNECTOR CONNECTION AND TERMINAL INSPECTION


    S
    For troubleshooting, diagnostic trouble code charts or
    problem symptom table are provided for each circuit with
    detailed inspection procedures on the following pages.
    S
    When all the component parts, wire harnesses and connectors of each circuit except the ECU are found to be
    normal in troubleshooting, then it is determined that the
    problem is in the ECU. Accordingly, if diagnosis is performed without the problem symptoms occurring, refer to
    Step 8 to replace the ECU. So always confirm that the
    problem symptoms are occurring, or proceed with inspection while using the symptom simulation method.
    S
    The instructions Check wire harness and connector and
    Check and replace ECU which appear in the inspection
    procedure, are common and applicable to all diagnostic
    trouble codes. Follow the procedure outlined below
    whenever these instructions appear.
    OPEN CIRCUIT:
    This could be due to a disconnected wire harness, faulty contact in the connector, and a connector terminal pulled out, etc.
    HINT:
    S
    It is rarely the case that a wire is broken in the middle of
    it. Most cases occur at the connector. In particular, carefully check the connectors of sensors and actuators
    S
    Faulty contact could be due to rusting of the connector
    terminals, to foreign materials entering terminals or a deformation of connector terminals. Simply disconnecting
    and reconnecting the connectors once changes the
    condition of the connection and may result in a return to
    normal operation. Therefore, in troubleshooting, if no abnormality is found in the wire harness and connector
    check, but the problem disappears after the check, then
    the cause is considered to be in the wire harness or connectors.
    SHORT CIRCUIT:
    This could be due to a contact between wire harness and the
    body ground or to a short circuit occurred inside the switch, etc.
    HINT:
    When there is a short circuit between the wire harness and body
    ground, check thoroughly whether the wire harness is caught
    in the body or is clamped properly.

    CONNECTOR HANDLING
    When inserting tester probes into a connector, insert them from
    the rear of the connector. When necessary, use mini test leads.
    For water resistant connectors which cannot be accessed from
    behind, take good care not to deform the connector terminals.

    Prepare a test male terminal and insert it in the female terminal, then pull it out.
    NOTICE:
    When testing a goldplated female terminal, always use a
    goldplated male terminal.
    HINT:
    When the test terminal is pulled out more easily than others,
    there may be poor contact in that section.

    Check the voltage.


    In a circuit in which voltage is applied (to the ECU connector terminal), an open circuit can be checked for by conducting a voltage check.
    As shown in Fig. 4, with each connector still connected, measure the voltage between body ground
    and terminal 1 of connector A at the ECU 5V output terminal, terminal 1 of connector B, and terminal 1 of connector C, in that order.
    If the results are:
    5V: Between Terminal 1 of connector A and Body Ground
    5V: Between Terminal 1 of connector B and Body Ground
    0V: Between Terminal 1 of connector C and Body Ground
    Then it is found out that there is an open circuit in the wire harness between terminal 1 of B and terminal 1 of C.

    CHECK AND REPLACE ECU
    First check the ECU ground circuit. If it is faulty, repair it. If it is
    normal, the ECU could be faulty, so replace the ECU with a normal functioning one and check that the symptoms appear.

    (1)

    Measure the resistance between the ECU ground


    terminal and the body ground.
    Resistance: 1 W or less
