TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

Actuator operation check
1. Connect 9 and 10 terminals of actuator to 40 and 41 terminals of
relay box.
2. Measure the motor voltage (No.4 terminal to body earth) with
oscilloscope. Then check the motor reverse voltage occasioned
time.
The motor reverse voltage occasioned time is more than 0.1
sec.
CAUTION:

Perform checking of motor relay unit. Then confirm that
relay functions.

Driving actuator motor is with in 4 sec. to prevent heating
up.

Standard condition of the motor reverse voltage occa-
sioned time is: Battery voltage is 12V. Temperature 20°.
when the battery voltage or temperature is lower than the
standard, the motor reverse voltage occasioned time
becomes slightly shorter.

–If vehicle speed is more than 20 km/h (13 MPH), and that temperature detected by ambient sensor
becomes 8 °C (46 °F) more than indicating temperature, indicating temperature will be elevated unit the
degree becomes same as temperature detected by ambient sensor with limiting elevation of indicating
temperature 1 °C par a minute.

CAN CommunicationEKS00EH0
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
