WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2024 Lexus ES 300h, 2023 Lexus ES 300h, 2022 Lexus ES 300h, 2021 Lexus ES 300h, and 2020 Lexus ES 300h. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS LINES (HEADLIGHT ECU SUB-ASSEMBLY LH BRANCH LINE)
- Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
- Disconnect the A11 or A78 headlight ECU sub-assembly LH connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
*A for TMMK Made Before Sep. 2019 Production *B for TMC Made or TMMK Made From Sep. 2019 Production *a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Headlight ECU Sub-assembly LH)Standard Resistance
FOR TMMK MADE BEFORE SEP. 2019 PRODUCTION:Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A11-24 (CANH) - A11-23 (CANL) Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal 54 to 69 Ω FOR TMC MADE OR TMMK MADE FROM SEP. 2019 PRODUCTION:Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A78-24 (CANH) - A78-23 (CANL) Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal 54 to 69 Ω Result
Result OK NG
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE CAN BRANCH LINES OR CONNECTOR (HEADLIGHT ECU SUB-ASSEMBLY LH)
Result:
OK
See step 2
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
*A for TMMK Made Before Sep. 2019 Production *B for TMC Made or TMMK Made From Sep. 2019 Production *a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Headlight ECU Sub-assembly LH)Standard Resistance
FOR TMMK MADE BEFORE SEP. 2019 PRODUCTION:Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A11-12 (GND) - Body ground Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal Below 1 Ω FOR TMC MADE OR TMMK MADE FROM SEP. 2019 PRODUCTION:Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A78-12 (GND) - Body ground Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal Below 1 Ω - Reconnect the cable to the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
FOR TMMK MADE BEFORE SEP. 2019 PRODUCTION:Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A11-4 (IG) - Body ground Power switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V FOR TMC MADE OR TMMK MADE FROM SEP. 2019 PRODUCTION:Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A78-4 (IG) - Body ground Power switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V Result
Result OK NG
Result:
OK
REPLACE HEADLIGHT ECU SUB-ASSEMBLY LH. Refer to REMOVAL [06/2018 - 09/2022]
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
