DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR WORKFLOW
Repair Work FlowINFOID:0000000003776328
DETAILED FLOW
1. OBTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT SYMPTOM
Interview the customer to obtain the malfunction information (conditions and environment when the malfunc-
tion occurred) as much as possible when the customer brings the vehicle in.
>> GO TO 2
2. REPRODUCE THE MALFUNCTION INFORMATION
Check the malfunction on the vehicl e that the customer describes.
Inspect the relation of the symptoms and the condition when the symptoms occur.
>> GO TO 3
3. IDENTIFY THE MALFUNCTIONING SYSTEM WITH “SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS”
Use “Symptom diagnosis” from the symptom inspection re sult in step 2 and then identify where to start per-
forming the diagnosis based on possible causes and symptoms.
>> GO TO 4
4. IDENTIFY THE MALFUNCTIONING PARTS WITH “COMPO NENT DIAGNOSIS”
Perform the diagnosis with “Component di agnosis” of the applicable system.
>> GO TO 5
5. REPAIR OR REPLACE THE MALFUNCTIONING PARTS
Repair or replace the specified malfunctioning parts.
>> GO TO 6
6. FINAL CHECK
Check that malfunctions are not reproduced when obtai ning the malfunction information from the customer,
referring to the symptom inspection result in step 2.
Are the malfunctions corrected?
YES >> INSPECTION END
NO >> Refer to GI-38, "
Intermittent Incident".

FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000003776329
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000003776330
Operation Description
• When rear window defogger switch is turned ON, while ignition switch is ON, the A/C and AV switch assem-bly (rear window defogger switch) transmits rear window defogger switch signal to BCM.
• BCM transmits rear window defogger control signal to IPDM E/R and display unit via CAN communication when rear window defogger operates.
• IPDM E/R turns rear window defogger relay and heated mirror relay ON when rear window defogger switch
signal is received.
• Rear window defogger and door mirror defogger are supplied with power and operate when rear window defogger relay and heated mirror relay turn ON.
• Rear window defogger ON is displayed when signal is received.
Timer function
• BCM turns rear window defogger relay and heated mirror relay ON for approximately 15 minutes when rear window defogger switch is turned ON while ignition switch is ON. It makes rear window defogger and door
mirror defogger operate.
• Timer is canceled after pressing rear window defogger switch again during timer operation. Then BCM turns
rear window defogger relay and heated mirror relay OFF. The same reaction also occurs during timer opera-
tion, if the ignition switch is turned OFF.

BCM • Operates the rear window defogger with the operation of rear window defogger switch.
• Performs the timer control of rear window defogger.
Rear window defogger relay • Operates the rear window defogger and the door mirror defogger with the control signal from
BCM.
A/C and AV switch assembly
(rear window defogger switch) • The rear window defogger switch is turned ON.
• Turns the indicator lamp ON when detecting the operation of rear window defogger.
Rear window defogger • Heats the heating wire with the power supply from the rear window defogger relay to prevent
the rear window from fogging up.
Door mirror defogger • Heats the heating wire with the power supply from the heated mirror relay to prevent the door
mirror from fogging up.
