    2. Apply battery voltage and check operation of the roof rear lock motor.

      OK

      Measurement Condition Specified Condition
      Battery positive (+) → 1 (3LM+)
      Battery negative (-) → 2 (3LM-)
      Motor gear rotates counterclockwise
      Battery positive (+) → 2 (3LM-)
      Battery negative (-) → 1 (3LM+)
      Motor gear rotates clockwise
    3. Connect an electrical tester DC 400 A probe to the wire harness of the motor.
      NOTE:

      Match the arrow mark of the probe with the direction of the current flow.

    4. Measure the current according to the value(s) in the table below.
      NOTE:

      Make sure to perform the inspection after the motor cools down sufficiently. Otherwise the result may not meet the specified condition due to protection circuit operation in the motor.

      Standard Current

      Measurement Condition Specified Condition
      Battery positive (+) → 2 (3LM-)
      Battery negative (-) → 1 (3LM+)
      0.1 to 1.6 A

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      f1-1 (3LM+) - Q34-2 (3LM+) Always Below 1 Ω
      f1-2 (3LM-) - Q34-8 (3LM-) Always Below 1 Ω
      Q34-2 (3LM+) - Q34-8 (3LM-) Always 10 kΩ or higher
