MICU Input Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Honda Fit, 2012 Honda Fit, 2011 Honda Fit, 2010 Honda Fit, and 2009 Honda Fit. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  2. Remove the fuse access panel (see FUSE ACCESS PANEL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ).
  3. Disconnect under-dash fuse/relay box connectors K, M, N and Q.
    NOTE: All connector views are shown from wire side of female terminals.

  4. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
    • If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary and recheck the system.
    • If the terminals look OK, go to step  5.
  5. With the connectors still disconnected, do these input tests at the following connectors.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to step  6.
    DTC TROUBLESHOOTING TABLE

    Cavity Wire Test condition Test: Desired result Possible cause if desired result is not obtained
    Q2 BLU Under all conditions Check for continuity between terminal Q2 and the data link connector 16P connector terminal No. 7:
    There should be continuity.
    An open or high resistance in the wire
    Q3 LT GRN Immobilizer-keyless control unit 7P connector disconnected Check for continuity between terminal Q3 and the immobilizer-keyless control unit 7P connector terminal No. 4:
    There should be continuity.
    An open or high resistance in the wire
    Q3 LT GRN Gauge control module 32P connector disconnected Check for continuity between terminal Q3 and the gauge control module 32P connector terminal No. 18:
    There should be continuity.
    An open or high resistance in the wire
    Q3 (1) LT GRN HandsFreeLink control module 28P connector disconnected Check for continuity between terminal Q3 and the HandsFreeLink control module 28P connector terminal No. 18:
    There should be continuity.
    An open or high resistance in the wire
    (1) For 2012 model without navigation.
  6. Reconnect the connectors to the under-dash fuse/relay box, turn the ignition switch to ON (II), and do these input tests at the following connectors.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to  7.
    NOTE: These are power and ground tests for the multiplex integrated control unit.
    DTC TROUBLESHOOTING TABLE

    Cavity Wire Test condition Test: Desired result Possible cause if desired result is not obtained
    N1 PNK Under all conditions Measure the voltage to ground: There should be battery voltage.
    • Blown No. 1 (10 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box
    • Faulty driver's under-dash fuse/ relay box
    • An open or high resistance in the wire
    Q8 LT BLU Ignition switch ON (II) Measure the voltage to ground: There should be battery voltage.
    • Blown No. 22 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box
    • Faulty under-dash fuse/relay box
    • An open or high resistance in the wire
    K10 BLK In all ignition switch positions Measure the voltage to ground: There should be less than 0.2 V.
    • Poor ground (G502) or an open in the ground wire
    • An open or high resistance in the wire
    M16 BLK In all ignition switch positions Measure the voltage to ground: There should be less than 0.2 V.
    • Poor ground (G501) or an open in the ground wire
    • An open or high resistance in the wire
    N2 BLK In all ignition switch positions Measure the voltage to ground: There should be less than 0.2 V.
    • Poor ground (G501) or an open in the ground wire
    • An open or high resistance in the wire
    Q9 BLK In all ignition switch positions Measure the voltage to ground: There should be less than 0.2 V.
    • Poor ground (G502) or an open in the ground wire
    • An open or high resistance in the wire
  7. If multiple failures are found on more than one control unit, replace the under-dash fuse/relay box (includes the MICU).
    • For USA model (see USA MODELS )
    • For Canada model (see CANADA MODELS )
    • If input failures are related to a particular control unit, replace the control unit.
