HINT:
*: If no conditions are specifically stated for ºldlingº, the shift lever is in the N or P position, the A/C switch
is OFF and all accessory switches are OFF.
2. ACTIVE TEST
HINT:
Performing the hand-held tester ACTIVE TEST allows relay, VSV, actuator and other items to be operated
without removing any parts. Performing the ACTIVE TEST early in troubleshooting is one way to shorten
labor time. The DATA LIST can be displayed during the ACTIVE TEST.
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(c) Connect the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(e) Turn ON the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.
(f) Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TEST.
(g) According to the display on tester, perform the ºACTIVE TESTº.

NOISE OCCURS
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 CHECK OF SPEAKER INSTALLATION
(a) Check the speaker installation condition.
(1) Check that each speaker is securely installed.
OK: Malfunction disappears.
HINT:
The radio is equipped with a noise prevention system that blocks only excessively loud noise. If loud noise
occurs, check whether or not the ground on the antenna installation part and the proper noise-prevention
equipment are all installed, and whether or not there is improper wiring.
Condition in which noise occursNoise type
Depressing the acceleration pedal increases the noise, and stopping the
engine stops the noise immediately.Alternator noise
Noise occurs during A/C or the heater operation.Blower motor noise
Rapid acceleration during the drive on an unpaved road or after the ignition
switch is turned on makes noise.Fuel pump noise
Pressing and then releasing the horn switch, and keeping pressing the horn
switch makes noise.Horn noise
Quiet noise is heard while the engine is running, but stops with the engine.Ignition noise
Noise occurs in turn with the blink of the turn signal flash.Flasher noise
Noise occurs during window washer operation.Washer noise
Noise occurs while the engine is running, and it continues even after the en-
gine is stopped.Water temperature sensor noise
Noise occurs during wiper operation.Wiper noise
Noise occurs when the brake pedal is depressed.Stop light switch noise
OthersStatic electricity on the vehicle
HINT:

Identify the condition in which the noise occurs, and check the noise filter on the related part.

Make sure first that there is no noise from outside. Failing to do so makes the noise occurrence source
detection difficult and leads to misdiagnosis.

The noise should be removed in descending order of loudness.
NG INSTALL IT PROPERLY
OK
