Inspection Procedure
Use the inspection procedure to determine if
the circuit is normal or abnormal, and, if it is
abnormal, use it to determine whether the
problem is located in the sensors, actuators,
wire harness or ECU.

2. CONNECTOR HANDLING
When inserting tester probes into a connector, insert them from
the rear of the connector. When necessary, use mini test leads.
For water resistant connectors which cannot be accessed from
behind, take good care not to deform the connector terminals.
3. CONTINUITY CHECK (OPEN CIRCUIT CHECK)
(a) Disconnect the connectors at both ECU and sensor
sides.
(b) Measure the resistance between the applicable terminals
of the connectors.
Resistance: 1 W or less
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harness
vertically and horizontally.
4. RESISTANCE CHECK (SHORT CIRCUIT CHECK)
(a) Disconnect the connectors on both ends.
(b) Measure the resistance between the applicable terminals
of the connectors and body ground. Be sure to carry out
this check on the connectors on both ends.
Resistance: 1 MW or higher
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harness
vertically and horizontally.
5. VISUAL CHECK AND CONTACT PRESSURE CHECK
(a) Disconnect the connectors at both ends.
(b) Check for rust or foreign material, etc. in the terminals of
the connectors.
(c) Check crimped portions for looseness or damage and
check that the terminals are secured in lock portion.
HINT:
The terminals should not come out when pulled lightly from the
back.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
The owners are responsible for these maintenance and inspection items.
They can be done by the owner or they can have them done at a service shop.
These items include those which should be checked on a daily basis, those which, in most cases, do not
require (special) tools and those which are considered to be reasonable for the owner to do.
Items and procedures for general maintenance are as follows.
1. GENERAL NOTES
Maintenance items may vary from country to country. Check the owner's manual supplement in which
the maintenance schedule is shown.
Every service item in the periodic maintenance schedule must be performed.
Periodic maintenance service must be performed according to whichever interval in the periodic main-
tenance schedule occurs first, the odometer reading (miles) or the time interval (months).
Maintenance service after the last period should be performed at the same interval as before unless
otherwise noted.
Failure to do even one item can cause the engine to run poorly and increase exhaust emissions.
2. TIRES
(a) Check the pressure with a gauge.
If necessary, adjust.
(b) Check for cuts, damage or excessive wear.
3. WHEEL NUTS
When checking the tires, check the nuts for looseness or for missing nuts.
If necessary, tighten them.
4. TIRE ROTATION
Check the owner's manual supplement in which the maintenance schedule is shown.
5. WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
Check for wear or cracks whenever they do not wipe clean.
If necessary, replace.
6. FLUID LEAKS
(a) Check underneath for leaking fuel, oil, water or other fluid.
(b) If you smell gasoline fumes or notice any leak, have the cause found and corrected.
7. DOORS AND ENGINE HOOD
(a) Check that all doors and includiing the trunk lid operate smoothly, and that all latches lock securely.
(b) Check that the engine hood secondary latch secures the hood from opening when the primary latch
is released.
