How to Proceed With Trouble DiagnosisAKS007F0
1. Confirm the symptom or customer complaint.
2. Understand operation description and function description. Refer to LT- 5 4 , "
System Description" .
3. Perform the Preliminary Check. Refer to LT- 6 2 , "
Preliminary Check" .
4. Check symptom and repair or replace the cause of malfunction. Refer to LT- 6 8 , "
Trouble Diagnosis Chart
by Symptom" .
5. Does the auto light system operate normally? If YES: GO TO 6. If NO: GO TO 4.
6. INSPECTION END
Preliminary CheckAKS007F1
SETTING CHANGE FUNCTIONS
Sensitivity of auto light system can be adjusted using CONSULT-II. Refer to LT- 6 4 , "WORK SUPPORT" .
CHECK POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUIT
1. CHECK FUSES
Check fuses for blown-out.
Refer to LT- 5 7 , "Wiring Diagram — AUTO/L —" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> If fuse is blown, be sure to eliminate cause of malfunction before installing new fuse. Refer to PG-
3, "POWER SUPPLY ROUTING CIRCUIT" .
