Front Accessory Power Socket Circuit Troubleshooting

Front Accessory Power Socket Circuit Troubleshooting 

1. Problem verification

   - 1. Test the front accessory power socket.

   Does the front accessory power socket workΩ

   YES 

   Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for loose or poor connections.

   NO 

   Go to step 2.

2. Fuse check

   - 1. Check the following fuses.

   Fuse	No. D13 (7. 5 A)
   Location	Driver's under-dash fuse/relay box

   Fuse	No. E15 (20 A)
   Location	Passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box

   Is each fuse OK?

   YES 

   Go to step 3.

   NO 

   Replace the fuse. If the fuse blows again, repair a short to ground in the No. D13 (7. 5 A), and/or No. E15 (20 A) fuse circuit(s).

3. Front accessory power socket relay check

   - 1. Remove the front accessory power socket relay from the passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box, and test it.

   Is the relay OK?

   YES 

   Go to step 4.

   NO 

   Replace the front accessory power socket relay, then recheck.

4. Open wire check (+B AS/FB 2 line)

   - 1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode. Front accessory power socket relay: disconnected
   Test circuit	+B AS/FB 2
   Test point 1	Passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box connector C (2P) No. 2 (WHT)
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there battery voltage?

   YES 

   Go to step 5.

   NO 

   Repair an open or high resistance in the wire.

5. Open wire check (ACC FR SOCKET line)

   - 1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode. Front accessory power socket relay: disconnected
   Test circuit	ACC FR SOCKET
   Test point 1	Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 1
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Courtesy of HONDA, U.S.A., INC.

   Is there battery voltage?

   YES 

   Go to step 6.

   NO 

   Replace the original passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box - Refer to: Passenger's Under-Dash Fuse/Relay Box Removal and Installation .

6. Determine possible failure area (front accessory power socket relay switch side circuit, front accessory power socket relay coil side circuit)

   - 1. Connect terminals A and B with a jumper wire.

   Terminal A	Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 1
   Terminal B	Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 2

   Does the front accessory power socket workΩ

   YES 

   Go to step 7.

   NO 

   Go to step 9.

7. Open wire check (B ACC line)

   - 1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode. Front accessory power socket relay: disconnected. Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 1 and No. 2: jumped
   Test circuit	B ACC
   Test point 1	Passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box connector E (42P) No. 40 (PUR)
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Courtesy of HONDA, U.S.A., INC.

   Is there battery voltage?

   YES 

   Go to step 8.

   NO 

   Repair an open or high resistance in the wire.

8. Open wire check (B ACC line)

   - 1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode. Front accessory power socket relay: disconnected
   Test circuit	B ACC
   Test point 1	Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 3
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Courtesy of HONDA, U.S.A., INC.

   Is there battery voltage?

   YES 

   Repair an open or high resistance in the ground wire or poor ground (G507).

   NO 

   Replace the original passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box - Refer to: Passenger's Under-Dash Fuse/Relay Box Removal and Installation .

9. Open wire check (ACC 2 line)

   - 1. Remove the front accessory power socket.

   - 2. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode. Front accessory power socket relay: disconnected. Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 1 and No. 2: jumped
   Test circuit	ACC 2
   Test point 1	Front accessory power socket 2P connector No. 2 (BRN)
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Courtesy of HONDA, U.S.A., INC.

   Is there battery voltage?

   YES 

   Go to step 10.

   NO 

   Repair an open or high resistance in the wire.

10. Open wire check (PGND line)

    - 1. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode. Front accessory power socket relay: disconnected. Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 1 and No. 2: jumped
    Test circuit	PGND
    Test point 1	Front accessory power socket 2P connector No. 1 (BLK)
    Test point 2	Body ground

    Courtesy of HONDA, U.S.A., INC.

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    Replace the front accessory power socket - Refer to: Front Accessory Power Socket Removal and Installation .

    NO 

    Repair an open or high resistance in the ground wire or poor ground (G506).
