Step 7. Retest the system.

Check that the turn-signal lamps and the indicator
lamps illuminate normally.

Q: Is the check result normal?

The lamps illuminate normally at both high and low
beams. :

The trouble can be an intermittent

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00

−

How to

Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-6

).

The front turn-signal lamps do not illuminate. :

Replace the socket.

The side turn-signal lamps do not illuminate. :

Replace the socket.

The rear turn-signal lamps do not illuminate. :

Replace the socket assembly.

The turn-signal indicator lamps do not illuminate. :

Replace the combination meter.

FOG LAMP

INSPECTION PROCEDURE L-1: The front fog lamps do not illuminate normally.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the
input and output signal circuits are normal.

OPERATION
The ETACS-ECU operates this function in
accordance with the input signals below.

•

Tail lamp switch

•

Headlamp switch

•

Front fog lamp switch

If the front fog lamps do not illuminate normally,
these input signal circuit(s) or the ETACS-ECU may
be defective.

POSSIBLE CAUSES

•

Malfunction of the column switch

•

Malfunction of the front fog lamp switch

•

Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

•

Damaged harness wires and connectors

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step 1. Check that the tail lamps and headlamps
operate.

Check that the tail lamps and headlamps illuminate
normally.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Check the tail lamps and the headlamps
(Refer to trouble symptom chart

P.54B-41

).

Step 2. Pulse check

Check the input signals below, which are related to
the front fog lamps.

OK: The MUT-II/III sounds or the voltmeter
needle fluctuates.

Q: Is the check result normal?

All the signals are received normally. :

Go to Step

3.

The ignition switch (IG1) signal is not received. :

Refer to inspection procedure N-2 "The
ignition switch (IG1) signal is not received

P.54B-301

."

The tail lamp switch signal is not received. :

Refer

to inspection procedure N-5 "The column
switch (lighting and turn-signal lamp switch)
signal is not received

P.54B-319

."

The headlamp switch signal is not received. :

Refer to inspection procedure N-5 "The
column switch (lighting and turn-signal lamp
switch) signal is not received

P.54B-319

."

The front fog lamp switch signal is not received. :

Refer to inspection procedure N-15 "The
front fog lamp switch signal is not received

P.54B-367

."

Step 3. Connector check: A-05X front fog lamp
relay connector.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 4.

NO :

Repair the defective connector.

Step 4. Check the front fog lamp relay.

Refer to GROUP 54A

−

Front fog lamp

P.54A-82

.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5.

NO :

Replace the front fog lamp relay.

Step 5. Measure the voltage at the A-05X front fog
lamp relay connector.

(1) Remove the front fog lamp relay, and measure at

the relay box side.

(2) Check the voltage between the front fog lamp
