4. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ECU - LIGHT AND BODY GROUND)





(a) Check the wire harness between the rear combination light (back-up LH) and rear multiplex network ECU, and the rear combination light (back-up LH) and body ground.
(1) Disconnect the Y2 light connector.
(2) Disconnect the LA ECU connector.
(3) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard resistance:






(4) Connect the LA ECU connector.
(5) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connector.
Standard resistance:
