- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Main Body / Active Test / Headlight Relay
- Check that the headlight (low) turn on/off.MAIN BODY ECU
Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note Headlight Relay Headlight ON or OFF - OK
Headlight low beams turn on/off.
Result:
OK
PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
(Refer to PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE [08/2015 - 08/2017] )

See step 2
- INSPECT FUSE (HEAD LL, HEAD RL)
- Remove the HEAD LL and HEAD RL fuses from the engine room relay block.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition HEAD LL fuse Always Below 1 Ω HEAD RL fuse Always Below 1 Ω - Reinstall the HEAD LL and HEAD RL fuses.
Result:
NG
REPLACE FUSE
Result:
OK
See step 3
- Remove the HEAD LL and HEAD RL fuses from the engine room relay block.
- INSPECT HEADLIGHT (LOW) BULB
- Temporarily replace the headlight (low) bulb with a new or normally functioning one (Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 5 ).
- Check that the headlight (low) turn on.
OK
Headlight (low) turn on.
Result:
OK
END
Result:
NG
See step 4
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HEADLIGHT LOW BULB - HEAD RELAY)
- for LH:
- Disconnect the A12 headlight (low) LH connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition A12-2 - Body ground Light control switch HEAD, dimmer switch Low 11 to 14 V Light control switch HEAD, dimmer switch except Low Below 1 V - Reinstall the headlight (low) LH connector.
- for RH:
- Disconnect the A13 headlight (low) RH connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition A13-2 - Body ground Light control switch HEAD, dimmer switch Low 11 to 14 V Light control switch HEAD, dimmer switch except Low Below 1 V - Reinstall the headlight (low) RH connector.
Result:
OK
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (HEADLIGHT LOW BULB - BODY GROUND)
Result:
NG
See step 5
- for LH:
- INSPECT HEADLIGHT RELAY (HEAD)
- Remove the HEAD relay from the engine room relay block.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 3 - 5 When battery voltage is not applied to terminals 1 and 2 10 kΩ or higher When battery voltage is applied to terminals 1 and 2 Below 1 Ω - Reinstall the HEAD relay.
Result:
NG
REPLACE HEAD RELAY
Result:
OK
See step 6
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HEAD RELAY - BATTERY)
- Remove the HEAD relay from the engine room relay block.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition HEAD relay terminal 1 - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V HEAD relay terminal 3 - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V - Reinstall the HEAD relay.
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
Result:
OK
See step 7
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HEAD RELAY - HEADLIGHT LOW BULB)
- Remove the HEAD relay from the engine room relay block.
- for LH:
- Disconnect the A12 headlight (low) LH connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition HEAD relay terminal 5 - A12-2 Always Below 1 Ω HEAD relay terminal 5 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher - Reinstall the headlight (low) LH connector.
- for RH:
- Disconnect the A13 headlight (low) RH connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition HEAD relay terminal 5 - A13-2 Always Below 1 Ω HEAD relay terminal 5 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher - Reinstall the headlight (low) RH connector.
- Reinstall the HEAD relay.
Result:
NG
