2. Using an ammeter:
INSPECT ONE TOUCH POWER WINDOW SYSTEM
(a) Disconnect the connector from the master switch.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from the ammeter to termi-
nal 6 on the wire harness side connector and the negative
(-) lead to negative terminal of the battery.
(c) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
13 on the wire harness side connector.
(d) As the window goes down, check that the current flow is
approximately 7 A.
(e) Check that the current increases up to approximately
14.5 A or more when the window stops going down.
HINT:
The circuit breaker opens some 4 - 40 seconds after the win-
dow stops going down, so that check must be made before the
circuit breaker operates.
If the operation is as specified, replace the master switch.
3. Using an ammeter with a current-measuring probe:
INSPECT ONE TOUCH POWER WINDOW SYSTEM
(a) Remove the master switch with connector connected.
(b) Attach a current-measuring probe to terminal 6 of the
wire harness.
(c) Turn the ignition switch ON and set the power window
switch in the down position.
(d) As the window goes down, check that the current flow is
approximately 7 A.
(e) Check that the current increases up to approximately
14.5 A or more when the window stops going down.
HINT:
The circuit breaker opens some 4 - 40 seconds after the win-
dow stops going down, so that check must be made before the
circuit breaker operates.
If operation is as specified, replace the master switch.

5. Driver 's Door and Rear RH Side:
INSPECT POWER WINDOW MOTOR OPERATION
(a) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
1 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 2, and check that
the motor turns clockwise.
(b) Reverse the polarity, and check that the motor turns coun-
terclockwise.
If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.
6. Passenger 's Door and Rear LH Side:
INSPECT POWER WINDOW MOTOR OPERATION
(a) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
1 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 2, and check that
the motor turns clockwise.
(b) Reverse the polarity, and check that the motor turns coun-
terclockwise.
If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.
7. Driver 's Door:
INSPECT CIRCUIT BREAKER OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the connector from the power window switch.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
6 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 13 on the wire har-
ness side connector, and raise the window to full closed
position.
(c) Continue to apply voltage, check that there is a circuit
breaker operation noise within approximately 4 to 40 se-
conds.
(d) Reverse the polarity, check that the window begins to de-
scend within approximately 60 seconds.
If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.

INSPECT CIRCUIT BREAKER OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the connector from the power window switch.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
1 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 4 on the wire har-
ness side connector, and raise the window to full closed
position.
(c) Continue to apply voltage, and check that there is a circuit
breaker operation noise within approximately 4 to 40 se-
conds.
(d) Reverse the polarity, and check that the window begins
to descend within approximately 60 seconds.
If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.
9. Rear Door:
INSPECT CIRCUIT BREAKER OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the connector from the power window switch.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
2 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 4 on the wire har-
ness side connector, and raise the window to full closed
position.
(c) Continue to apply voltage, check that there is a circuit
breaker operation noise within approximately 4 to 40 se-
conds.

AUDIO SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
1. RADIO WAVE BAND
2. SERVICE AREA
There are great differences in the size of the service area for AM
and FM monaural. Sometimes FM stereo broadcasts cannot be
received even through AM comes in very clearly.
Not only does FM stereo have the smallest service area, but it
also picks up static and other types of interference (ºnoiseº)
easily.
3. RECEPTION PROBLEMS
Besides the problem of static, there are also the problems
called ºfadingº, ºmultipathº and ºfade outº. These problems are
caused not by electrical noise but by the nature of the radio
waves themselves.

Fading
Besides electrical interference, AM broadcasts are
also susceptible to other types of interference, es-
pecially at night. This is because AM radio waves
bounce off the ionosphere at night. These radio
waves then interfere with the signals from the same
transmitter that reach the vehicle's antenna directly.
This type of interference is called ºfadingº.

Multipath
One type of interference caused by bouncing of ra-
dio waves off obstructions is called ºmultipathº. Mul-
tipath occurs when a signal from the broadcast
transmitter antenna bounces off buildings and
mountains and interferes with the signal that is re-
ceived directly.

Fade Out
Because FM radio waves are of higher frequencies
than AM radio waves, they bounce off buildings,
mountains, and other obstructions. For this reason,
FM signals often seem to gradually disappear or
fade away as the vehicle goes behind a building or
other obstructions. This is called ºfade outº.
4. Tape Player/Head Cleaning:
MAINTENANCE
(a) Raise the cassette door with your finger.
Next, using a pencil or similar object, push in the guide.
(b) Using a cleaning pen or cotton applicator soaked in clean-
er, clean the head surface, pinch rollers and capstans.

TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTICE:
When replacing the internal mechanism (computer part) of the audio system, be careful that no part
of your body or clothing comes in contact with the terminals of the leads from the IC, etc. of the re-
placement part (spare part).
HINT:
This inspection procedure is a simple troubleshooting which should be carried out on the vehicle during sys-
tem operation and is prepared on the assumption of system component troubles (except for the wires and
connectors, etc.).
Always inspect the trouble taking the following items into consideration.
