SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.
SUNROOF/HEADLINING
Noises in the sunroof/headlining area c an often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
2. Sun visor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headliner and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.
OVERHEAD CONSOLE (FRONT AND REAR)
Overhead console noises are often caused by the c onsole panel clips not being engaged correctly. Most of
these incidents are repaired by pushing up on the c onsole at the clip locations until the clips engage.
In addition look for:
1. Loose harness or harness connectors.
2. Front console map/reading lamp lens loose.
3. Loose screws at console attachment points.
SEATS
When isolating seat noise it's important to note the pos ition the seat is in and the load placed on the seat when
the noise is present. These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and isolating the cause of the
noise.
Cause of seat noise include:
1. Headrest rods and holder
2. A squeak between the seat pad cushion and frame
3. The rear seatback lock and bracket
These noises can be isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while duplicating the con-
ditions under which the noise occurs. Most of thes e incidents can be repaired by repositioning the component
or applying urethane tape to the contact area.
UNDERHOOD
Some interior noise may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine wall. The noise is then
transmitted into the passenger compartment.
Causes of transmitted underhood noise include:
1. Any component mounted to the engine wall
2. Components that pass through the engine wall
3. Engine wall mounts and connectors
4. Loose radiator mounting pins
5. Hood bumpers out of adjustment
6. Hood striker out of adjustment
These noises can be difficult to isolate since they cannot be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The best
method is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time and test drive the \
vehicle. Also, engine RPM
or load can be changed to isolate the noise. Repairs can usually be made by moving, adjusting, securing, or
insulating the component causing the noise.

Monitor Item [Unit] Description
IGN ON SW [ON/OFF] Indicates condition of ignition switch.
DOOR SW-DR [ON/OFF] Indicates condition of front door switch LH.
DOOR SW-AS [ON/OFF] Indicates condition of front door switch RH.
Test Item Description
RETAINED PWR This test is able to supply RAP signal (powe
r) from BCM (body control module) to power window
system and power sunroof system (if equipped). Those systems can be operated when turning on
“RETAINED PWR” on CONSULT-III screen even if the ignition switch is turned OFF.
NOTE:
During this test, CONSULT-III can be operated with ignition switch in OFF position. “RETAINED
PWR” should be turned “ON” or “OFF” on CONSULT-III screen when ignition switch is ON. Then
turn ignition switch OFF to check retained power operation. CONSULT-III might be stuck if “RE-
TAINED PWR” is turned “ON” or “OFF” on CONSULT-III screen when ignition switch is OFF.
Work item Description
RETAINED PWR SET RAP signal’s power supply period can be changed by mode setting. Selects RAP signal’s power
supply period between three steps
• MODE1 (45 sec.)/MODE2 (OFF)/MODE 3 (2 min.).

trarily.
AUTO OPERATION
The sunroof AUTO feature makes it possible to sli de open and slide close or tilt up and tilt down the sunroof
without holding the sunroof switch in the slide open/tilt down or slide close/tilt up position.
RETAINED POWER OPERATION
Retained power operation is an additional power supply function that enables the sunroof system to operate
up to 45 seconds after the ignition switch is turned OFF.
Retained power function cancel conditions
• When a front door is opened (door switch ON)
• When ignition switch is turned ON again.
