Action for Non-repeatable Malfunction

• If the malfunction does not recur, verify the malfunction cause by performing the following actions:
  • Verify that a DTC has been recorded in the memory. (See DTC INSPECTION [RETRACTABLE FASTBACK CONTROL MODULE] ).
  • Based on the repair order form, attempt to drive the vehicle or perform tests to replicate the malfunction, record the data at that time, and detect the malfunction cause.
  • Shake the wiring harness or connector of the electrical component which is suspected to be the cause of the malfunction, and inspect for malfunction or occurrence of any DTCs.
