DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR WORK FLOW
Work FlowINFOID:0000000006299433
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.CHECK FOR DTC
Perform self diagnosis with CONSULT-III
Is any DTC detected?
YES-1 >> BCM: Refer to BCS-57, "DTCIndex".
YES-2 >> IPDM E/R: Refer to PCS-22, "
DTCIndex".
NO >> GO TO 3.
3.REPRODUCE THE MALFUNCTION INFORMATION
Check the malfunction on the vehicle that the customer describes.
Inspect the relation of the symptoms and the condition when the symptoms occur.
>> GO TO 4.
4.IDENTIFY THE MALFUNCTIONING SYS TEM WITH “SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS”
Use “Symptom diagnosis” from the sympt om inspection result in step 3. Then identify where to start perform-
ing the diagnosis based on possible causes and symptoms.
>> GO TO 5.
5.IDENTIFY MALFUNCTIONING PARTS WITH “COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS”
Perform the diagnosis with “Component diagnosis” of the applicable system.
>> GO TO 6.
6.REPAIR OR REPLACE THE MALFUNCTIONING PARTS
Repair or replace the specified malfunctioning parts.
>> GO TO 7.
7.FINAL CHECK
Check that malfunctions are not reproduced when obtaini ng the malfunction information from the customer,
referring to the symptom inspection result in step 3.
Are all malfunctions corrected?
YES >> INSPECTION END
NO >> GO TO 4.
