26. INSPECT INTEGRATION RELAY OPERATION
(a) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminals
1 and 7.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
9 through a 3.4 W test bulb.
(c) Check that the test bulb lights up and buzzer sounds for
4 - 8 seconds when the negative (-) lead from the battery
is connected to terminal 10.
(d) Check that the buzzer sounding in (c) stops when the
negative (-) lead from the battery is connected to terminl
8.
If operation is not as specified, replace the integration relay.
27. INSPECT RELAY CIRCUIT

(a) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(b) Turn the defogger switch ON.
(c) Inspect the voltage at the center of each heat wire, as
shown.
VoltageCriteria
Approx. 5VOkay (No break in wire)
Approx. 10V or 0VBroken wire
HINT:
If there is approximately 10 V, the wire is broken between the
center of the wire and the positive (+) end. If there is no voltage,
the wire is broken between the center of the wire and ground.
(d) Place the voltmeter positive (+) lead against the defogger
positive (+) terminal.
(e) Place the voltmeter negative (-) lead with the foil strip
against the heat wire at the positive (+) terminal end and
slide it toward the negative (-) terminal end.
(f) The point where the voltmeter deflects from zero to sever-
al V is the place where the heat wire is broken.
HINT:
If the heat wire is not broken, the voltmeter indicates 0 V at the
positive (+) end of the heat wire but gradually increases to about
12 V as the meter probe is moved to the other end.
5. IF NECESSARY, REPAIR DEFOGGER WIRE
(a) Clean the broken wire tips with a grease, wax and silicone
remover.
(b) Place the masking tape along both sides of the wire to be
repaired.
(c) Thoroughly mix the repair agent (DuPont paste No.
4817).

(d) Using a fine tip brush, apply a small amount to the wire.
(e) After a few minutes, remove the masking tape.
(f) Do not repair the defogger wire for at least 24 hours.
6. INSPECT MIRROR DEFOGGER OPERATION
(a) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
2 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 1.
(b) Check that the mirror becomes warm.
HINT:
It will take a short time for the mirror to become warm.
If the mirror does not become warm, replace the mirror assem-
bly.
7. INSPECT MIRROR DEFOGGER CIRCUIT
Disconnect the connector from the outside mirror and inspect
the connector on the wire harness side, as shown.
Tester connectionConditionSpecified condition
1 - GroundConstantContinuity
2 - GroundIgnition switch ON (Defogger switch OFF)No voltage
2 - GroundIgnition switch ON (Defogger switch ON)Battery positive voltage
If the circuit is not as specified, inspect the circuits connected
to other parts.

3. Using an ammeter:
INSPECT ONE TOUCH POWER WINDOW SYSTEM/
CURRENT OF CIRCUIT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the master switch.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from the ammeter to termi-
nal 9 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
10 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 - 90 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.
4. Using an ammeter with a current-measuring probe:
INSPECT ONE TOUCH POWER WINDOW SYSTEM
CURRENT OF CIRCUIT
(a) Remove the master switch with connector connected.
(b) Attach a current-measuring probe to terminal 4 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 9 - 90 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.
