POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUIT
Are any fuses blown?
YES >> If fuse is blown, be sure to eliminate cause of malfunction before installing new fuse. Refer to GI-
41, "Circuit Inspection".
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT
1. Disconnect sonar control unit connector B56.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Check voltage between sonar control unit connector B56 termi- nal 1 and ground.
Is there battery voltage?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Check harness for open between sonar control unit and fuse.
3.CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Check continuity between sonar control unit B56 terminal 4 and ground.
Is there continuity?
YES >> Inspection End.
NO >> Check harness ground circuit.

SONAR SENSOR CIRCUIT INSPECTION
DescriptionINFOID:0000000004832343
With power and ground supplied to the sonar sensors, the sonar sensors transmit an ultrasonic signal. This
signal is reflected back to the sensor by objec ts large enough and close enough to be detected. The sonar
sensors measure the time from the transmitted signal to the time the signal is reflected back and send this
information to the sonar control unit.
Diagnosis Procedure (With Rear Sonar System)INFOID:0000000004832344
1.CHECK REAR SONAR SENSOR CIRCUITS
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect sonar control unit connector and rear sonar sensor connectors.
3. Check continuity between sonar control unit harness connector (A) and rear sonar sensor harness connectors (B).
4. Check continuity between sonar control unit harness connector and ground.
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> Inspection End.
NO >> Repair harness or connector.
Diagnosis Procedure (With Front and Rear Sonar System)INFOID:0000000004832345
1.CHECK SONAR SENSOR CIRCUITS
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect sonar control unit connec tors and sonar sensor connectors.
3. Check continuity between sonar control unit harness connectors (A, B) and sonar sensor harness connectors (C).

SONAR BUZZER CIRCUIT INSPECTION
DescriptionINFOID:0000000004832346
When the A/T selector lever is not it park or neutral, a stationary object will be detected by the sonar sensors
causing the front or rear sonar buzzer to sound a tone. As the vehicle moves closer to the object, the rate of
the tone will increase. When the object is very cl ose to the vehicle, the tone will sound continuously.
Diagnosis Procedure (With Rear Sonar System)INFOID:0000000004832347
1.CHECK SONAR BUZZER
Refer to SN-18, "
Component Inspection".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Replace sonar buzzer. Refer to SN-51, "
Removal and Installation".
2.CHECK SONAR BUZZER CIRCUITS
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect sonar control unit connector and sonar buzzer connector.
3. Check continuity between sonar control unit harness connector (A) and sonar buzzer harness connector (B).
4. Check continuity between sonar control unit harness connector and ground.
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> Inspection End.
NO >> Repair harness or connector.

SONAR SYSTEM OFF SWITCH CIRCUIT INSPECTION
DescriptionINFOID:0000000004832350
The sonar system can be disabled by momentarily pressing the sonar system OFF switch. The sonar system
OFF indicator lamp will be illuminated when the sonar s ystem is OFF. Enabling the sonar system will cause
the sonar system OFF indicator to go out. The indica tor will flash if a malfunction exists in the system.
Diagnosis Procedure (With Rear Sonar System)INFOID:0000000004832351
1.CHECK REAR SONAR SYSTEM OFF SWITCH
Refer to SN-20, "
Component Inspection".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Replace rear sonar system OFF switch. Refer to IP-14, "
Removal and Installation".
2.CHECK REAR SONAR SYSTEM OFF SWITCH CIRCUITS
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect sonar control unit connector and rear sonar system OFF switch connector.
3. Check continuity between sonar control unit harness connector (A) and rear sonar system OFF switch harness connector (B).
4. Check continuity between rear sonar system OFF switch har- ness connector and ground.
Are the inspection results normal?
