Diagnostic Procedure

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK VDCCM&H/U INPUT VOLTAGE. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
  2. Disconnect the connector from the VDCCM&H/U.
  3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
  4. Measure the voltage between VDCCM&H/U connector and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (B310) No. 1 (+) - Chassis ground (-): 

    (B310) No. 7 (+) - Chassis ground (-): 

Is the voltage 10 - 15 V? Go to step . Repair the VDCCM&H/U power supply circuit.
2 CHECK VDCCM&H/U INPUT VOLTAGE. 
Calculate the voltage difference measured in step 1.
  1. (B310) No. 1 (+) - Chassis ground (-):
  2. (B310) No. 7 (+) - Chassis ground (-):
Is the voltage difference between A and B 2 V or more? Repair the power supply circuit. Go to step .
3 CHECK INSTALLATION OF VDCCM&H/U GROUND.  Is the VDCCM&H/U ground terminal installation bolt tightened to 13 N.m (1.3 kgf-m, 9.6 ft-lb)? Go to step . Tighten the VDCCM&H/U ground terminal installation bolt.
4 CHECK VDCCM&H/U GROUND CIRCUIT. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
  2. Measure the resistance between VDCCM&H/U connector and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (B310) No. 13 - Chassis ground: 

Is the resistance less than 10 Ω? Go to step . Repair the VDCCM&H/U ground harness.
5 CHECK VDCCM&H/U MOTOR RELAY. 
Measure the resistance between VDCCM&H/U connector terminals.
Connector & terminal 
(B310) No. 1 - (B310) No. 13: 
Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more? Go to step . Replace the VDCCM&H/U. < Refer to VDC CONTROL MODULE AND HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT (VDCCM&H/U) . >
6 CHECK POOR CONTACT OF CONNECTORS. 
Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
Is there poor contact of connector between generator, battery and VDCCM&H/U? Repair the connector. Go to step .
7 CHECK VDCCM&H/U. 
  1. Connect all connectors.
  2. Clear the memory. < Refer to CLEAR MEMORY MODE . >
  3. Perform the Inspection Mode. < Refer to INSPECTION MODE . >
  4. Read the DTC.
Is the same DTC displayed? Replace the VDCCM&H/U. < Refer to VDC CONTROL MODULE AND HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT (VDCCM&H/U) . > Go to step .
8 CHECK OTHER DTC DETECTION.  Is any other DTC displayed? Perform the diagnosis according to DTC. < Refer to LIST OF DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) . > Temporary poor contact occurs.
NOTE: Though the ABS warning light, and the VDC warning light & VDC indicator light remain lit at this point, this is normal. Drive the vehicle at 12 km/h (7 MPH) or more in order to turn off the ABS warning light, and the VDC warning light & VDC indicator light. Be sure to drive the vehicle and check that the warning light goes off.
