1997 HONDA CIVIC kick panel

)Control Unit Input Test ('99 - 00 models with Keyless Entry System)
1.Remove the driver's kick panel.
Disconnect the 18P connector from the control unit.
Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contacl.
. lf the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system
. lf the terminals look OK, make rhe following input tests at the connector.
- lf anv test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck ihe system
- lf all the input tests prove OK, the control unit must be faulty; replace it

Disconnect the 18P connector from the power door lock control unit.
CAUTION: To provent damage to the actuator, apply battery Yoltage only momentarily.

Connector Views
To see the configuration of a connector's cavities, look up its view number in the Connector
View section in the back of the book. Each view includes the color of the connector, where it
is located, and what it connects to.
Use the Connector Views to help locate the proper cavity when you need to probe a
connector. lt can be especially helpful if the connector has more than one wire of the same
cotor.
Connector views can also be used to help diagnose multiple symptoms in separate circuits
which could be caused by a single problem in a connector shared by those circuits. Here's
how:
1. Pick one of the multiple symptoms and look up the schematic for that circuit.
2. Make a list of all the in-line and fuse box connectors in that schematic (include page
numbers).
3. Then, in the Connector View section, look up each connector on your list to see il circuits
related to the other symptoms run through one of them. lf they do, inspect that connector
for the oroblem.
Example: The blower, rear window defogger, and the windshield wiper don't work. List all
in-line and fuse box connectors in the blower controls circuit and then check the Connector
View section (sample below). You find that C324 is common to the rear window defogger
circuit and wiper/washer circuit, so you inspect C324 and find the problem, bent terminals.
