Back-up Light Circuit [10/2015 - ]: Procedure

  1. CHECK DTC OUTPUT (HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM) 
    1. Check for DTCs (Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [10/2015 - ] ).

      OK

      Hybrid control system DTCs are not output.

    Result: 

    NG 

    GO TO HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM 

    (Refer to HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [10/2014 - ] )

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK ENGINE ROOM JUNCTION BLOCK ASSEMBLY 
    1. Using a voltmeter, check the signal reading of the engine room junction block assembly (Refer to ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION [10/2015 - ] ).

      OK

      Output signal reading is normal.

    Result: 

    NG 

    INSPECT ENGINE ROOM JUNCTION BLOCK ASSEMBLY (RESULTS OF SIGNAL READING CHECK) 

    (Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 2 )

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ENGINE ROOM JUNCTION BLOCK ASSEMBLY POWER SOURCE AND BODY GROUND) 

    See step  3

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  4

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (REAR LIGHT ASSEMBLY - ENGINE ROOM JUNCTION BLOCK ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Disconnect the O7 rear light assembly LH connector.
    2. Disconnect the O1 rear light assembly RH connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1M-1 (MGCT) - O7-3 (B) Always Below 1 Ω
      1M-1 (MGCT) - O1-3 (B) Always Below 1 Ω

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  5

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU ASSEMBLY - ENGINE ROOM JUNCTION BLOCK ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Disconnect the A68 hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly connector.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1F-9 (MCLS) - A68-2 (BL) Always Below 1 Ω
      1F-9 (MCLS) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  6

  6. CHECK ENGINE ROOM JUNCTION BLOCK ASSEMBLY 
    1. Replace the engine room junction block assembly with a new or known good one (Refer to REMOVAL [10/2014 - ] ).
    2. Check that the back-up lights operate normally.

      OK

      The back-up lights operate normally.

    Result: 

    OK 

    END (ENGINE ROOM JUNCTION BLOCK ASSEMBLY WAS DEFECTIVE) 

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU ASSEMBLY 

    (Refer to REMOVAL [10/2015 - ] )
