Gauge Control Module Input Test

NOTE: Before testing, do the gauge control module self-diagnostic function, and make sure the B-CAN communication line is OK.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  2. Remove the gauge control module (A) (see GAUGE CONTROL MODULE REPLACEMENT  ), and disconnect the 32P connector (B) from it.

  3. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
    • If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
    • If the terminals are OK, go to step  4.
  4. With the connector still disconnected, do these input tests at the following connector.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to step  5.
    TEST CONDITION REFERENCE TABLE

    Cavity Wire Test condition Test: Desired result Possible cause if desired result is not obtained
    1 RED Combination light switch ON Attach to ground:
    The dash lights should come on full bright.
    • Faulty LEDs and bulbs
    • An open or high resistance in the wire
    6 WHT Ignition switch ON (II), turn signal switch in RIGHT Measure the voltage to ground:
    There should be battery voltage when the lights are flashing.
    • Faulty MICU
    • Faulty combination light switch
    • An open or high resistance in the wire
    9 BLU Ignition switch ON (II), turn signal switch in LEFT Measure the voltage to ground:
    There should be battery voltage when the lights are flashing.
    • Faulty MICU
    • Faulty combination light switch
    • An open or high resistance in the wire
    18 LT GRN Disconnect under-dash fuse/relay box connector Q (16P) Check for continuity between the terminal No. 18 and under-dash fuse/relay box connector Q (16P) terminal No. 3:
    There should be continuity.    		 An open or high resistance in the B-CAN wire
    Disconnect the immobilizer control unit 7P connector Check for continuity to ground: There should be no continuity. An open or high resistance in the B-CAN wire
  5. Reconnect the 32P connector to the gauge control module, and do these input tests at the following connector.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the. system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, the gauge control module must be faulty; replace it (see GAUGE CONTROL MODULE REPLACEMENT  ).
