HINT:

(*) Pattern Select Switch (ECT SNOW Switch)

When the ECT SNOW switch is pushed, the switch contact is made and the ECT SNOW mode is selected.

To cancel the ECT SNOW mode, push the ECT SNOW switch once again.

The ECT SNOW mode is automatically cancelled out when the engine switch is turned "OFF".

  1. DRIVING TEST 
    1. Start the engine.
    2. Turn the ECT SNOW switch "OFF" (Normal drive mode).
    3. Confirm vehicle response by driving from a parked position to fully depressing the accelerator pedal.
    4. Turn the ECT SNOW switch "ON" and perform the same check as above.

      Confirm that there is a difference between ECT SNOW switch "ON" and "OFF".

      HINT:

      • Driving test should be done on a paved road (a nonskid road).
      • Make sure not to use the TRAC system when testing a vehicle equipped with one.

      OK: 

      There is a difference in acceleration between "ON" and "OFF".

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 
    1. Connect the connector of pattern select switch.
    2. Disconnect the cowl side junction block (multiplex network body ECU) connector.
    3. Measure the resistance between terminal PWR of the cowl side junction block (multiplex network body ECU) and body ground.
