Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Lexus ES 350. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. IDENTIFY THE COMPONENT SHOWN BY SUB-CODE 
    1. Enter the diagnostic mode.

    2. Press the preset switch "3" to change to "Detailed Information Mode".
    3. Identify the component shown by the sub-code.

      HINT:

      • "190 (radio receiver)" is the component shown by the subcode in the example shown in the illustration.
      • For details of the DTC display, refer to "DTC CHECK/ CLEAR ."
  2. CHECK COMPONENT SHOWN BY SUB-CODE 
    1. Select the component shown by sub-code.

      HINT:

      The "Bluetooth" handsfree module is built into the radio receiver. If there is a problem between the "Bluetooth" handsfree module and radio receiver, replace the radio receiver.

      Component Table: 

      COMPONENT CHART

      Component Proceed to
      "Bluetooth" handsfree module (19D) A
      Except "Bluetooth" handsfree module B

    A: REPLACE RADIO RECEIVER 

    B: Go to Next Step 

  3. CHECK POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT OF COMPONENT SHOWN BY SUB-CODE 
    1. Inspect the power source circuit of the component shown by the sub-code.

      If the power source circuit is operating normally, proceed to the next step.

      Component Table: 

      COMPONENT CHART

      Component Proceed to
      Radio receiver (190) (See RADIO RECEIVER POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT  )
  4. INSPECT RADIO RECEIVER 
    1. Disconnect the radio receiver connectors.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance 

      RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      ATX+ - ATX- Always 60 to 80 Ω

    NG: REPLACE RADIO RECEIVER 

    OK: Go to Next Step 

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER - COMPONENT SHOWN BY SUB-CODE) 

    HINT:

    • Start the check from the circuit that is near the component shown by the sub-code first.
    • For details of the connectors, refer to the "TERMINALS OF ECU ."
    1. Referring to the AVC-LAN wiring diagram below, check the AVC-LAN circuit between the stereo component amplifier and the component shown by the sub-code.
      1. Disconnect all connectors between the stereo component amplifier and the component shown by sub-code.
      2. Check for an open or short in the AVC-LAN circuit between the stereo component amplifier and the component shown by the sub-code.

        OK: There is no open or short circuit.

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to Next Step 

  6. REPLACE COMPONENT SHOWN BY SUB-CODE 
    1. Replace the component shown by the sub-code with a normal one and check if the same problem occurs again.

      OK: Same problem does not occur. 

    NG: REPLACE STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER 

    OK: END
