WINDSHIELD DEICER SYSTEM Windshield Deicer does not Operate

DESCRIPTION

When the windshield deicer switch is operated, the operation signal is transmitted to multi-media receiver assembly. Multi-media receiver assembly transmit the operation signal to the air conditioning amplifier assembly via CAN communication line. When the air conditioning amplifier assembly receives the signal, it turns on the No. 2 integration relay to operate the windshield deicer.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

  • If the auxiliary battery voltage becomes low, windshield deicer operation is canceled to prioritize supplying power to the power steering system Click here.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM


    1. Use the GTS to check if the CAN communication system is functioning normally.

    OK
  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (NO. 2 INTEGRATION RELAY - AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER, BATTERY AND BODY GROUND)


    1. Disconnect the 1A, 1B and 1G No. 2 integration relay connector.

    2. Disconnect the N78 air conditioning amplifier assembly connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1A-25(DEC) - N78-24 (FDEF) Always Below 1 Ω
      1A-25(DEC) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      N78-1 (GND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
    4. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1G-1(ALT) - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V
      1B-8(IG1A) - Body ground Power switch off Below 1 V
      1B-8(IG1A) - Body ground Power switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V

    NG
    OK
  6. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (WINDSHIELD GLASS - NO. 2 INTEGRATION RELAY AND BODY GROUND)


    1. Disconnect the A70 windshield glass connector.

    2. Disconnect the 1B No. 2 integration relay connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A70-1 (B) - 1B-5(DECR) Always Below 1 Ω
      A70-2 (B2) - 1B-1(DECL) Always Below 1 Ω
      A70-3 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      A70-1 (B) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      A70-2 (B2) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG
    OK
