2. CHECKING SHORTCIRCUITS
(1) Remove the blown fuse connect the test light to the
disconnected terminal. The test light should not come
on.
(2) Connect a lead wire of the test light to the power side
of the connector 0. The test light should not come on.
(3) Connect a lead wire of the test light to the load side of
the connector 0. The test light should come on and the
load light should also come on.
(4) Disconnect the load at the connector 0 and connect
the test light lead wire to the load side of the connector
CD.
The test light should come on and the load light should
also come on.
(5) Connect the test light lead wire to the switch side of
the connecotr 0. The test light should come on.
(6) If the test conforms to any of the above conditions,
there is a shortcircuit in the wiring between the
connector 0 and the connector 0.
3. CHECKING CONTINUITY
(I) When the switch is in the OFF position, the self power
test light should come on or the ohmmeter should read
0 R only when the terminals 2 and 3 are interconnect-
ed.
(2) When the switch is in the ON position, the self power
test light should come on or the ohmmeter should read
0 LR only when the terminals 1 and 4 are interconnect-
ed.

8-22 WIRING HARNESS - How to Read Wiring Diagrams
HOW TO READ CIRCUIT DIAGRAMS
The circuit diagrams are functionally separated.
(1) Indication of circuit connected to another circuit
When the circuit in a circuit diagram connected to another circuit in a different diagram, the page number of that
different diagram is indicated so that it can be referred to.
(2) Indication of device connections
The circuit diagram shows whether a device harness connection is one with an attached cable or is a direct
connection type.
(3) Indication of connectors in circuit diagrams
A connector in a circuit diagram is shown in a frame and is assigned a connector symbol. This symbol
corresponds to the symbol in a wiring harness configuration diagram so that the connector location can be
known easily. An intermediate connector has its female side only shown as a rule. However both of the male
and female sides are shown when they differ in wiring color.
Refer to Item (2)
If a frame showing a connector touches the
?. it indicates that the de-
a direct connec- symbol of a device
vice
harness connectlon IS
tion type.
Refer to Items (2) and (3).
The frame shows the connector is not touch- ing the symbol of a device, and indicates that
the device harness connection is one with an
attached cable.
Indicates direct grounding from
the device to the bodv.

nectar. On a circuit connected to another circuit the
names of devices to which the circuit is con-
nected and pages on which diagrams of such
another circuit appear are indicated.

(4) Indication of fuses, fusible links and centralized relays
The fuses and fusible links in a circuit diagram are indicated by a wave symbol (-) and a double wave symbol
(~1, respectively. At a centralized junction, the fuses are given fuse numbers and centralized relays are given
connector symbols.
Example of centralized junction symbol: A - 01 x
Centralized junction indication symbol
Connector’s unique number (serial number)
Connector symbol
(5) Indication of ground point
The ground point in a circuit diagram is marked by a ground symbol, making it possible for you to refer to a
wiring harness configuration diagram and to ELECTRICAL SYSTEM PARTS LOCATION (Grounding).
(6) Indication of wires
In a circuit diagram, the wire diameter and wire color are shown for each wire. If there are several wires
of the same color in a connector, their wire color indication symbols should be such symbols as “I and
“2 for identification.
On connectors like this one given a central-
to CENTRALIZED JUNCTION for connector

The connector B-39 has two wires identical
in color (RL), so they are given identification
symbols *I and *2 in order to distinguish
them. 1 ST6 Revision

(7) Indication of shielded cables
A shielded cable used , for example, in an electronic control circuit for prevention of malfunctions that may
otherwise be caused by radio interference is indicated by a solid line sandwiched between dashed lines ( E).
(8) Indication of specification-dependent connectors
With regard to harness connectors, the inter-device and -harness connectors which vary in shape or position on
different vehicle specifications, such as those with rear wipers and turbocharger and those without turbo-
charger, are given a specification-dependent connector identification symbol (lower case alphabet) following the
connector symbol.
Example: A - Ola
Specification - dependent connector identification symbol
a : Vehicles with a manual transmission
b : Vehicles with an automatic transmission
c : Vehicles with a power window
d : Vehicles without a power window
(9) Shapes of connectors
The connector shapes are indicated by simplified symbolic marks. For distinction between male and female
connectors, refer to HOW TO IDENTIFY CONNECTORS.
Refer to Item (8)
The b at the end of the connector symbol
is a specification-dependent connector
identification
symbol and indicates that
the connector is used for vehicles with’
automatic transmission.
