INTEGRATION RELAY ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT SEMICONDUCTOR PWR INTEGRATION ECU (SIGNAL READING CHECK)

    Note

    Both present and history signal readings will be cleared if the semiconductor pwr integration ECU is removed. Make sure not to remove it before inspection.

    Tech Tips

    The signal readings of the semiconductor pwr integration ECU can be checked by inspecting the voltage at the diagnosis terminal.


    1. Signal reading check


      1. Turn the power switch on (IG).

        (Semiconductor Pwr Integration ECU)

        *b Diagnosis Terminal

        Connect the positive (+) terminal of a voltmeter to the semiconductor pwr integration ECU and the negative (-) terminal to the body ground.

      3. Using the illustration below as a reference, determine whether any channels are malfunctioning based on the observed signal reading.

        Tech Tips


        • Present signal reading and history signal reading will be displayed alternately after the power switch is turned on (IG). By measuring the duration of each header, the present signal reading and history signal reading can be recognized.

        • A unit malfunction indicates an internal malfunction of the semiconductor pwr integration ECU. If a malfunction is detected for any channel from channel 0 to 7, an electrical load connected to the semiconductor pwr integration ECU may be malfunctioning or there may be a short in the semiconductor pwr integration ECU circuit or in the wire harness.

        • The present signal reading will be stored as a history signal reading when electrical loads are operated after a malfunctioning part returns to normal.

        • Both present and history signal readings can be cleared by disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.

        • Depending on the specification, different electrical loads connected to channels 0 to 7 are provided. Refer to the table below:

          Channel Connected Electrical Load
          ch0 Heater water pump assembly
          ch1 Rear window defogger wire
          ch2 Windshield deicer wire
          ch3 Front fog lights
          ch4 Daytime running lights
          ch5 Stop lights
          ch6 High beam headlight RH
          ch7 High beam headlight LH
  2. INSPECT SEMICONDUCTOR PWR INTEGRATION ECU (RESULTS OF SIGNAL READING CHECK)


    1. Results of signal reading check


      1. Depending on the signal reading, perform troubleshooting according to the table below.

        Output Signal Reading Repair Method
        Normal Continue troubleshooting for each system.
        The unit is malfunctioning Replace the semiconductor pwr integration ECU.
        A malfunction in a channel (ch0 to ch7)
        1. Check for a short in the wire harnesses between the semiconductor pwr integration ECU and each electrical load.

        2. Inspect each of the electrical loads.

        3. Replace the semiconductor pwr integration ECU.

        Tech Tips

        Make sure to clear the signal readings by disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal after replacement or repair of the malfunctioning part.

      2. If no signal readings are output, perform troubleshooting according to the following troubleshooting procedure.

        2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

          Standard Voltage
          Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
          1D-11 - Body ground Power switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V

          If the result is not as specified, repair or replace the wire harness or connector.
