INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. INSPECT FUSE (GAUGE)

(a) Remove the GAUGE fuse from the main body ECU.

(b) Measure the resistance.

Standard resistance:

Below 1 Ohms

(c) Reinstall the GAUGE fuse.

NG -- REPLACE FUSE
OK -- Continue to next step.

2. INSPECT BULB (BACK-UP LIGHT BULB)

(a) Hatchback:





(1) Remove the rear combination light assembly.

(2) Apply battery voltage to the terminals and check that the back-up light illuminates.

Standard:





(3) Reinstall the rear combination light assembly.

(b) Sedan:





(1) Remove the rear combination light assembly.

(2) Apply battery voltage to the terminals and check that the back-up light illuminates.

Standard:





(c) Reinstall the back-up light bulbs.

NG -- REPLACE BULB
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK TRANSAXLE TYPE

(a) Check the vehicle's transaxle type.

Result:





B -- INSPECT BACK-UP LIGHT SWITCH
A -- Continue to next step.

4. INSPECT PARK / NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH

(a) Disconnect the C27 park / neutral position switch connector.





(b) Measure the resistance.

Standard resistance:

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

6. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PARK / NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH - REAR BACK-UP LIGHT)

(a) Hatchback:





(1) Disconnect the C27 park / neutral position switch connector.

(2) Disconnect the J3 and J4 rear combination light assembly connectors.

(3) Measure the resistance.

Standard resistance:





(4) Reconnect the park / neutral position switch connector.

(5) Reconnect the rear combination light assembly connectors.

(b) Sedan:





(1) Disconnect the C27 park / neutral position switch connector.

(2) Disconnect the J34 and J35 rear combination light assembly connectors.

(3) Measure the resistance.

Standard resistance:





(4) Reconnect the park / neutral position switch connector.

(5) Reconnect the rear combination light assembly connectors.

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

OK -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (BACK-UP LIGHT - BODY GROUND)

7. INSPECT BACK-UP LIGHT SWITCH

(a) Disconnect the back-up light switch connector.





(b) Measure the resistance.

Standard resistance:





(c) Reconnect the back-up light switch connector.

NG -- REPLACE BACK-UP LIGHT SWITCH
OK -- Continue to next step.

8. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FUSE - BACK-UP LIGHT SWITCH)

(a) Disconnect the C22 back-up light switch connector.





(b) Measure the voltage.

Standard voltage:





(c) Reconnect the back-up light switch connector.

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

9. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BACK-UP LIGHT SWITCH - BACK-UP LIGHT)

(a) Hatchback:





(1) Disconnect the C22 back-up light switch connector.

(2) Disconnect the J3 and J4 rear combination light assembly connectors.

(3) Measure the resistance.

Standard resistance:





(4) Reconnect the back-up light switch connector.

(5) Reconnect the rear combination light assembly connectors.

(b) Sedan:





(1) Disconnect the C22 back-up light switch connector.

(2) Disconnect the J34 and J35 rear combination light assembly connectors.

(3) Measure the resistance.

Standard resistance:





(4) Reconnect the back-up light switch connector.

(5) Reconnect the rear combination light assembly connectors.
