  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY - HEADLIGHT LEVELING ECU ASSEMBLY)


    1. Disconnect the E7 combination meter connector.

    2. Disconnect the E109 headlight leveling ECU connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E7-4 (+S) - E109-16 (SPDR) Always Below 1 Ω
      E7-4 (+S) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

    OK

  3. CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY


    1. w/ Multi-information Display:

        Remove the combination meter with its connector still connected Click here.

    2. w/o Multi-information Display:


      1. Remove the combination meter with its connector still connected Click here.

    3. Connect an oscilloscope to the combination meter connector.

    4. Check the waveform.

      Measurement Condition
      Item Content
      Terminal No. (Symbol) E7-4 (+S) - Body ground
      Tool setting 5 V/DIV., 20 ms./DIV.
      Condition Vehicle is driven at approximately 20 km/h (12 mph)
      OK
      Waveform is as shown in the illustration.

      Tech Tips

      When the system is functioning normally, one wheel revolution generates 4 pulses. As the vehicle speed increases, the width indicated by (A) in the illustration narrows.
