STEP 4. Check choke coil connector D-11 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is choke coil connector D-11 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair or replace the connector. Refer to GROUP

00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. The

defogger system should work normally.

STEP 5.Measure the voltage at choke coil connector D-11.
(1) Disconnect connector D-11, and measure the voltage at the

harness side.

(2) Disconnect A/C-ECU connector C-15 and ground harness

side terminal No.27.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(4) Measure the voltage between choke coil connector D-11

terminal No.1 and ground.

• The measured value should be approximately 12 volts.

Q: Is the measured voltage approx. 12 volts?

YES : Go to Step 13.
NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Measure the voltage at defogger relay connector
C-201.
(1) Disconnect defogger relay connector C-201, and measure

the voltage at the junction block side.

(2) Measure the voltage between terminal 5 and ground.

• The measured value should be approximately 12 volts

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Is the measured voltage approx. 12 volts?

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Go to Step 7.

STEP 7. Check the wiring harness between defogger relay
connector C-201 (terminal 5) and the fusible link (1).

NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-31 and junction
block connector C-216 for loose, corroded, or damaged termi-
nals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If intermediate
connector C-31 and junction block connector C-216 is dam-
aged, repair or replace the connector as described in GROUP
00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between defogger relay connector

C-201(terminal 5) and the fusible link (1) in good
condition?
YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

− How to

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-14

.

NO : Repair the wiring harness. Check that the defogger

system works normally.
