Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Toyota Sienna. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MULTI-DISPLAY CONTROLLER SUB-ASSY - RADIO AND NAVIGATION ASSY) 
    1. Disconnect the radio and navigation assy connector R16 and multi-display controller sub-assy connector R26.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in MULTI-DISPLAY CONTROLLER SUB-ASSY - RADIO AND NAVIGATION ASSY RESISTANCE .

      Standard: 

    MULTI-DISPLAY CONTROLLER SUB-ASSY - RADIO AND NAVIGATION ASSY RESISTANCE

    Tester connection Condition Specified condition
    SGND - SGN1 Always Below 1 Ω
    NTSC - NTS1 Always Below 1 Ω
    SGD1 - SG3 Always Below 1 Ω
    NTSC - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
    SGD1 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
    SGND - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    1. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 
    2. OK: GO TO NEXT STEP 
  2. INSPECT MULTI-DISPLAY CONTROLLER SUB-ASSY (OUTPUT SIGNAL) 
    1. Reconnect the multi-display controller sub-assy connector R26.
    2. Measure the waveform according to WAVEFORM REFERENCE  .

      Standard: 

    WAVEFORM REFERENCE

    Tester connection Condition Specified condition
    NTSC - Body ground DVD display is ON A waveform synchronized with display signals is output

    1. NG: REPLACE  MULTI-DISPLAY CONTROLLER SUB-ASSY 
    2. OK: PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN  PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE  

    HINT:

    The waveform pattern may differ from that shown in Fig 4 due to differences in oscilloscope setting. A normal multi-display controller sub-assy operating condition can be determined if any waveform is output.

    Oscilloscope wave

    Terminal: NTSC-Body ground

    Setting: 500 mV/DIV 10 mus/DIV

    Condition: DVD display is on.
