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

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      N20-13 (TC) - N20-4 (CG) Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V
      TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

      *1 DLC3

    NG → See step   3 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM See step   1 

    B → See step   7 

    A: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TC of DLC3 - ECM) 
    1. Turn the engine switch off.
    2. Disconnect the A21 ECM connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      N20-13 (TC) - A21-21 (TC) Always Below 1 Ω
      N20-13 (TC) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CG of DLC3 - BODY GROUND) 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      N20-4 (CG) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

      *1 DLC3

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. CHECK ECM (TC of DLC3 INPUT) 
    1. Turn the engine switch off.

    2. Reconnect the ECM connector.
    3. Using SST, connect terminals 13 (TC) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3.
      • SST: 09843-18040 
    4. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    5. Check that the MIL is blinking.

      RESULT

      Result Proceed to
      MIL is blinking A
      MIL is not blinking B

      HINT: 

      If troubleshooting has been carried out according to Problem Symptoms Table, refer back to the table and proceed to the next step before replacing the part. Refer to PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE [12/2011 - ] .

    B → REPAIR OR REPLACE WIRE HARNESS OR ECM (TC of ECM CIRCUIT) 

    A → See step   6 

  6. REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY. Refer to  REMOVAL [12/2011 - ] 
  7. GO TO CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING). Refer to  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [12/2011 - ]
