Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000009460660
Regarding Wiring Diagram information. Refer to CHG-12, "Wiring Diagram".
CAUTION:
When performing this in spection, always use a charged battery that has completed the battery inspec-
tion. (When the charging rate of the battery is lo w, the response speed of the voltage change will
become slow. This can cause an incorrect inspection.)
1.CHECK ECM (CONSULT)
Perform ECM self-diagnosis with CONSULT. Refer to EC-77, "CONSULT Function"
(QR25DE) or EC-601,
"CONSULT Function" (VQ35DE).
Self
-diagnostic results content
No malfunction detected>> GO TO 2.
Malfunction detected>> Check applicable parts, and repair or replace corresponding parts.
2.CHECK OPERATION OF POWER GENERATION VOLTAGE VARIABLE CONTROL SYSTEM
1. Connect CONSULT and start the engine.
2. The selector lever is in “P” or “N” position and al l of the electric loads and A/C, etc. are turned OFF.

VOLT” monitor when DUTY value of “DUTY” is set to 40.0 %.
4. Check the value of “BATTERY VOLT” monitor when DUTY value of “DUTY” is set to 80.0%.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Inspection End.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3.CHECK IPDM E/R (CONSULT)
Perform IPDM E/R self-diagnosis with CONSULT. Refer to PCS-9, "CONSULT Function (IPDM E/R)"
.

No malfunction detected>> GO TO 4.
Malfunction detected>> Check applicable parts, and repair or replace corresponding parts.
4.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN GE NERATOR AND IPDM E/R
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect generator connector and IPDM E/R connector.
3. Check continuity between generator harnes s connector and IPDM E/R harness connector.
“BATTERY VOLT”
2 seconds after setting the
DUTY value of “ALTERNA-
TOR DUTY” to 40.0 % : 12 - 13.6 V
“BATTERY VOLT”
20 seconds after setting
the DUTY value of “ALTER-
NATOR DUTY” to 80.0 % : +0.5 V or more against
the value of “BATTERY
VOLT” monitor when
