PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
Proceed to the reference page shown in the matrix chart below for each malfunction symptom and trouble-
shoot for each circuit.
HINT:
Troubleshooting of the theft deterrent system is based on the premise that the door lock control system is
operating normally. Accordingly, before troubleshooting the theft deterrent system, first make certain that
the door lock control system is operating normally.

Taillight Control Relay Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When the theft deterrent system is activated, it causes the Tr in the ECU to switch ON and OFF at approxi-
mately 0.4 sec. intervals. This switches the taillight control relay ON and OFF, thus flashing the taillights (See
the wiring diagram below).
In this condition, if any of the following operations is done, the Tr in the ECU goes OFF and the taillight control
relay switches OFF, thus stopping the taillights flashing:
(1) Unlock the front LH or RH door with key.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to ACC or ON position.
(3) Unlock the doors with the wireless door lock control system.
(4) Wait for approximately 60 seconds.
(5) Push the panic switch of the wireless door lock control system.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
The flow chart below is based on the premise that the taillights light up normally whenever the light control
switch is operated. If taillight operation is not normal when the light control switch is operated, proceed to
troubleshooting on page BE±2.
1 Check voltage between terminal TAIL of theft deterrent ECU connector and body
ground.
PREPARATION:
Disconnect the theft deterrent ECU connector.
CHECK:
Measure voltage between terminal TAIL of theft deterrent ECU
connector and body ground.
OK:
Voltage: 10 ± 14 V
NG Check and repair harness and connector be-
tween theft deterrent ECU and taillight control
relay (See page IN±31).
OK
Check and replace theft deterrent ECU.

ADJUSTMENT
ADJUST HEADLIGHT AIM ONLY
(a) Place the vehicle in the following conditions.

The area around the headlight is not deformed.

The vehicle is parked on a level surface.

Tire inflation pressure is the specified value.

A driver is in the driver's seat and the vehicle is in a state ready for driving (with a tank full).

The vehicle has been bounced several times.
(b) Check the headlight aiming.
(1) Prepare a thick white paper.
(2) Stand the paper perpendicular to the ground at the position 9.84 ft away from the headlights.
(3) Ensure that the center line of the vehicle and the paper face forms a 90±degree angle as shown
in the illustration.
(4) Draw a horizontal line (H line) on the paper, showing where the headlights should strike.
(5) Draw a vertical line (V line) to where the center line of the vehicle is to be.
(6) Draw 2 vertical lines to where the the headlights should strike (V RH and V LH lines).
(7) Draw a horizontal line (by connecting the both low beam center marks) to where the headlights
should strike (H RH and H LH lines).
HINT:
The H RH and H LH line is 0.4° below the horizontal line (H line) of the light axis.
(8) Start the engine.

(9) Turn the headlights ON.
(10) Check that the headlights properly strike the position shown in the illustration.
(11) If not, adjust the lights in the vertical direction.
HINT:

As shown in the illustration, adjust each aim of the RH and LH lights.

The value of the ºHigh Beamº aim is a reference value. Since the horizontal direction is impossible to
adjust, the value * of the ºLow Beamº aim is also a reference value.
(c) When adjusting it in the vertical direction:
Using adjusting bolt (vertical direction), adjust the headlight aim to within the specified range.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
These are maintenance and inspection items which are considered to be the owner's responsibility.
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 an cause the engine to run poorly and increase exhaust emissions.
2. LIGHTS
(a) Check that the headlights, stop lights, taillights, turn signal lights, and other lights are all working.
(b) Check the headlight aim.
3. WARNING LIGHTS AND BUZZERS
Check that all warning lights and buzzers function properly.
4. HORN
Check that it is working.
5. WINDSHIELD GLASS
Check for scratches, pits or abrasions.
6. WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHER
(a) Check operation of the wipers and washer.
(b) Check that the wipers do not streak.
7. WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER
Check that air comes out from the defroster outlet when operating the heater or air conditioner.
8. REAR VIEW MIRROR
Check that it is mounted securely.
9. SUN VISORS
Check that they move freely and are mounted securely.
10. STEERING WHEEL
Check that it has the specified freeplay. Be alert for changes in steering condition, such as hard steering,
excessive freeplay or strange noises.
11. SEATS
(a) Check that the seat adjusters operate smoothly.
(b) Check that all latches lock securely in any position.
(c) Check that the head restraints move up and down smoothly and that the locks hold securely in any
latch position.
(d) For fold±down seat backs, check that the latches lock securely.
12. SEAT BELTS
(a) Check that the seat belt system such as the buckles, retractors and anchors operate properly and
smoothly.
(b) Check that the belt webbing is not cut, frayed, worn or damaged.
