Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Toyota 4Runner. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK REAR WIPER OPERATION 
    1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    2. Operate the rear wiper and turn the rear wiper switch OFF.
    3. Check that the rear wiper stops at the retract position when the rear wiper switch is turned OFF.

    NG: CHECK REAR WIPER MOTOR ASSY 

    OK: Go To Next Step 

  2. INSPECT BACK DOOR POWER WINDOW REGULATOR SWITCH ASSY 
    1. Using the hand-held tester, read the DTC when the back power window switch is operated.
      1. When DTC B1287 is output, proceed to A.
      2. When no DTC is output, proceed to B.
      3. When DTC B1241 is output, proceed to C.

    A: INSPECT MULTIPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (See  DTC B1287: BACK DOOR ECU COMMUNICATION STOP  ) 

    B: INSPECT BACK DOOR POWER WINDOW REGULATOR SWITCH ASSY (See  DTC B1241 BODY ECU SWITCH CIRCUIT DIAGNOSIS   ) 

    C: Go to next step 

  3. READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER 
    1. Check the condition of the retract switch using the data list.

    Standard: 

    BACK DOOR ECU DATA LIST

    Measurement Item Label Parameter
    Wiper retract switch WIPER RTRCT SW ON

    NG: Go to step   6 

    OK: Go To Next Step 

  4. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (BACK DOOR ECU <=> POWER WINDOW MOTOR) (BACK DOOR ECU <=> BODY GROUND) 
    1. Disconnect the B9 ECU connector.
    2. Disconnect the B11 motor connector.
    3. Check the continuity between the wire harness side connectors.

      STANDARD

      Terminal No. Specified Condition
      B9-25 <=> B11-5 Continuity
      B9-13 <=> B11-4 Continuity
    4. Check the continuity between the B9 ECU connector and the body ground.
    STANDARD

    Terminal No. Specified Condition
    B9-13 <=> Body ground No continuity
    B9-25 <=> Body ground No continuity

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go To Next Step 

  5. INSPECT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR ASSY LH (BACK DOOR) 
    1. Remove the motor.
    2. Apply battery voltage between the connector terminals and check that the motor gear rotates smoothly.

    NOTE: Do not apply battery voltage to any terminals except terminals 4 and 5.
    STANDARD

    Terminal No. Motor gear rotation
    Battery positive voltage --> 5
    Battery negative voltage --> 4
    Counterclockwise
    Battery positive voltage --> 4
    Battery negative voltage --> 5
    Clockwise

    NG: REPLACE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR ASSY LH (BACK DOOR) 

    OK: CHECK AND REPLACE MULTIPLEX NETWORK DOOR ECU BACK 

  6. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (BACK DOOR ECU <=> REAR WIPER MOTOR) (BACK DOOR ECU <=> BODY GROUND) 
    1. Disconnect the B9 ECU connector.
    2. Disconnect the R23 motor connector.
    3. Check continuity between the wire harness side connectors.

      STANDARD

      Terminal No. Specified Condition
      B9- 12 <=> R23-1 Continuity
      B9-18 <=> R23-2 Continuity
    4. Check the continuity between the B9 ECU connector and the body ground.
    STANDARD

    Terminal No. Specified Condition
    B9- 12 <=> Body ground No continuity
    B9- 18 <=> Body ground No continuity

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 

    OK: REPLACE REAR WIPER MOTOR ASSY
