- According to the display on the Techstream, read the Data List and check that the value of Light Sensor Illuminance changes while performing the following:
- Turn the light control switch to the AUTO position.
- Cover the automatic light control sensor with an opaque object.
- Slowly move the opaque object to uncover and then cover the automatic light control sensor.MAIN BODY
Tester Display Measurement Item / Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note Light Sensor Illuminance Light control sensor illuminance / 0 to 8191 lx Value is output according to ambient light level - OK
The value changes according to the amount the automatic light control sensor is covered.
Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
OK
REPLACE MAIN BODY ECU (MULTIPLEX NETWORK BODY ECU). Refer to REMOVAL [08/2019 - ]
Result:
NG
See step 3
- Using the Techstream, read the Data List.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MAIN BODY ECU [MULTIPLEX NETWORK BODY ECU] - AUTOMATIC LIGHT CONTROL SENSOR)
- Disconnect the H133 main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) connector.
- Disconnect the H148 automatic light control sensor connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition H133-19 (CLTB) - H148-1 (CLTB) Always Below 1 Ω H133-20 (CLTS) - H148-4 (CLTS) Always Below 1 Ω H133-21 (CLTE) - H148-2 (CLTE) Always Below 1 Ω H133-19 (CLTB) or H148-1 (CLTB) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher H133-20 (CLTS) or H148-4 (CLTS) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher H133-21 (CLTE) or H148-2 (CLTE) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
