4 Check battery positive voltage.
PREPARATION:
Start the engine.
CHECK:
Check the battery positive voltage.
OK:
Voltage: 9 ± 14 V
NG Check and repair charging system.
OK
5 Check operation of PS warning light.
PREPARATION:
(a) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(b) Disconnect the connector from the EMPS ECU.
(c) Turn the ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Check the PS warning light goes OFF.
OK Check and replace EMPS ECU.
NG
Check for short circuit in harness and connector between multiinformation display and EMPS
ECU, multiinformation display and DLC3 (See page IN±41).

CHECK:
Turn the ignition switch ON and measure the voltage between
terminals Tc and CG of the DLC3.

and CG are connected, EMPS ECU may be de-
fective.

PRE±CHECK
1. SRS WARNING LIGHT CHECK
(a) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and check that
the SRS warning light lights up.
(b) Check that the SRS warning light goes out after approx.
6 seconds.
HINT:
When the ignition switch is at ON and the SRS warning
light remains on or flashes, the airbag sensor assembly
has detected a malfunction code.
If, after approx. 6 seconds have elapsed, the SRS warn-
ing light sometimes lights up or the SRS warning light
lights up even when the ignition switch is OFF, a short in
the SRS warning light circuit can be considered likely.
Proceed to ºSRS warning light circuit malfunctionº on
page DI±632.
2. DTC CHECK (Using diagnosis check wire)
(a) Present troubles codes:
Output the DTC.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and wait
for approx. 20 seconds.
(2) Using SST, connect terminals Tc and CG of the
DLC3.
SST 09843±18020
NOTICE:
Pay due attention to the terminal connecting position to
avoid a malfunction.
(b) Past troubles codes:
Output the DTC.
(1) Using service wire, connect terminals Tc and CG of
the DLC3.
SST 09843±18020
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and wait
for approx. 20 seconds.
NOTICE:
Pay due attention to the terminal connecting position to
avoid a malfunction.
