W/Harness Inspection





Terminal and Connector Inspection

1. Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminals. Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.
2. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
3. Has a problem been found ?






Power Circuit Inspection

1. IG "OFF" & Disconnect OCV (B2) connector.
2. IG "ON" & ENG "OFF".
3. Measure voltage between terminal 1 of OCV (B2) harness connector and chassis ground.

Specification : B+





4. Is the measured voltage within specification ?






Control Circuit Inspection

1. Check short to ground in harness
(1) IG "OFF" and disconnect OCV connector.
(2) IG "ON" & ENG "OFF".
(3) Measure resistance between terminal 2 of OCV harness connector and chassis ground.

Specification : Infinite





(4) Is the measured resistance within specification ?





2. Check open in harness
(1) IG "OFF" and disconnect OCV and PCM connector.
(2) Measure resistance between terminal 2 of OCV harness connector and terminal 61 of PCM harness connector.

Specification : Approx. below 1 ohms





(3) Is the measured resistance within specification ?
