Headlight Relay Circuit: Procedure

  1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (HEADLIGHT RELAY) 
    1. Using the Techstream, perform the Active Test. Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST .
      MAIN BODY

      Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note
      Headlight Relay Low beam headlight relay ON/OFF -

      OK

      Headlight relay operates (low beam headlights illuminate).

    NG → See step   2 

    OK → See step   5 

  2. INSPECT HEADLIGHT RELAY (H-LP LO) 
    1. Remove the headlight relay from the engine room relay block, junction block.

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

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      3 - 5 Battery voltage not applied between terminals 1 and 2 10 kΩ or higher
      Battery voltage applied between terminals 1 and 2 Below 1 Ω

    NG → REPLACE HEADLIGHT RELAY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BATTERY - HEADLIGHT RELAY [H-LP LO]) 
    1. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HEADLIGHT RELAY [H-LP LO] - MAIN BODY ECU) 
    1. Remove the main body ECU. Refer to REMOVAL .
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      Headlight relay terminal 2 - A-15 (HRLY) Always Below 1 Ω
      A-15 (HRLY) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK → See step   5 

  5. PROCEED TO NEXT SUSPECTED AREA SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE. Refer to  PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
