HEADLAMP WASHER

INSPECTION PROCEDURE I-1: The headlamp washer does not work.
| CAUTION Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the input and output signal circuits are normal.
| COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM The headlamp washer motor, the column switch or the front-ECU may be defective.
| POSSIBLE CAUSES Malfunction of the headlamp washer motor Malfunction of the column switch Malfunction of the front-ECU Damaged harness wires and connectors
| DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
| Step 1. MUT-II/III diagnosis code. When the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK (OFF) position, check that the ETACS-ECU does not set the diagnosis code. Q: Is the diagnosis code set? YES: Refer to diagnosis code chart . NO: Go to Step 2.
| Step 2. Pulse check Check the input signals below which are related to the windshield wiper.
System switch | Check condition
--- | ---
Ignition switch (ACC) | When turned from the LOCK (OFF) position to the ACC position.
Headlamp washer switch | When the switch is turned from off to on.
OK: The MUT-II/III sounds or the voltmeter needle fluctuates. Q: Is the check result normal? All the signals are received normally: Go to Step 3. The ignition switch (ACC) signal is not received.: Refer to Inspection Procedure P-1 "The ignition switch (ACC) signal is not received ." Headlamp washer switch signal is not received.: Refer to Inspection Procedure P-5 "The column switch (windshield wiper/washer and rear wiper/washer switch) signal is not received ."
| Step 3. Connector check: A-25 headlamp washer motor connector Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 4. NO: Repair the connector.
| Step 4. Check the headlamp washer motor assembly. Refer to GROUP 51 - Headlamp washer . Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 5 NO: Replace the headlamp washer motor.
| Step 5. Measure the resistance at the A-25 headlamp washer motor connector. Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side. Continuity between A-25 headlamp washer motor connector terminal No.2 and body earth OK: 2Ω or less Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 7. NO: Go to Step 6.
| Step 6. Check the wiring harness between A-25 headlamp washer motor connector terminal No.2 and body earth. Check the earth wires for open circuit. Q: Is the check result normal? YES: The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ). NO: Repair the wiring harness.
| Step 7. Connector check: A-11X front-ECU connector Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 8. NO: Repair the connector.
| Step 8. Measure the voltage at the A-11X front-ECU connector. Remove the front-ECU, and measure at the junction block side. Ignition switch: ACC Check the voltage between the A-11X front-ECU connector terminal No.3 and body earth. OK: System voltage Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 10. NO: Go to Step 9.
| Step 9. Check the wiring harness between A-11X front-ECU connector terminal No.3 and the fusible link (5). Check the power supply line from the fusible link (5) for open circuit. Q: Is the check result normal? YES: The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ). NO: Repair the wiring harness.
| Step 10. Check the wiring harness between A-25 headlamp washer motor connector terminal No.1 and A-11X front-ECU connector terminal No.1. Check the output line to headlamp washer motor for open circuit. Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 11. NO: Repair the wiring harness.
| Step 11. Retest the system. The headlamp washer should now work normally. Q: Is the check result normal? YES: The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ). NO: Replace the front-ECU.
