Simulation Tests

NOTE: In case of difficulty in finding the cause of the intermittent malfunction, the data recorder function in the scan tool is effective.

For these simulation tests, shake, then gently bend, pull, and twist the wiring of each of these examples to duplicate the intermittent malfunction.

Shake the connector up-and-down, and right-and-left.
Shake the wiring harness up-and-down, and right-and-left. Especially, check the splice points of wiring harnesses carefully. Refer to HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION .
Shake the part or sensor.
