SCOPE OF MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
SERVICING EXPLANATIONS

This manual provides explanations, etc. concerning
procedures for the inspection, maintenance, repair
and servicing of the subject model.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE

"On-vehicle Service" is procedures for performing
inspections and adjustments of particularly important
locations with regard to the construction and for
maintenance and servicing, but other inspection (for
looseness, play, cracking, damage, etc.) must also
be performed.

INSPECTION

Under this title are presented inspection and check-
ing procedures to be performed by using special
tools and measuring instruments and by feeling, but,
for actual maintenance and servicing procedures,
visual inspections should always be performed as
well.

DEFINITION OF TERMS

STANDARD VALUE

Indicates the value used as the standard for judging
the quality of a part or assembly on inspection or the
value to which the part or assembly is corrected and
adjusted. It is given by tolerance.

LIMIT

Shows the standard for judging the quality of a part
or assembly on inspection and means the maximum
or minimum value within which the part or assembly
must be kept functionally or in strength. It is a value
established outside the range of standard value.

REFERENCE VALUE

Indicates the adjustment value prior to starting the
work (presented in order to facilitate assembly and
adjustment procedures, and so they can be com-
pleted in a shorter time).

DANGER, WARNING, AND CAUTION

DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION call special
attention to a necessary action or to an action that
must be avoided. The differences among DANGER,
WARNING, and CAUTION are as follows:

• If a DANGER is not followed, the result is severe

bodily harm or even death.

• If a WARNING is not followed, the result could be

bodily injury.

• If a CAUTION is not followed, the result could be

damage to the vehicle, vehicle components or
service equipment.

INDICATION OF TIGHTENING TORQUE

Tightening torques (units: N

⋅m) are set to take into

account the central value and the allowable toler-
ance. The central value is the target value, and the
allowable tolerance provides the checking range for
tightening torques.

CAUTION

During diagnosis, a diagnosis code associated
with other system may be set when the ignition
switch is turned on with connector(s) discon-
nected. On completion, confirm all systems for
diagnosis code(s). If diagnosis code(s) are set,
erase them all.

WARNING

Since the radiator fan rotates during CAN
bus line diagnostics, make sure that no one
is servicing the engine compartment before
diagnosing the CAN bus line. Since the CAN
communication stops when diagnosing the
CAN bus line, the ETACS-ECU detects the
time-out of the engine-ECU, and activates
the radiator fan to prevent overheating as
fail-safe.

Troubleshooting of electronic control systems for
which the M.U.T.-III can be used follows the basic
outline described below. Even in systems for which
the M.U.T.-III cannot be used, some of these sys-
tems still follow this outline.

1. STANDARD FLOW OF DIAGNOSIS TROUBLESHOOTING

Troubleshooting sections are based on the diagnostic flow as below. If the diagnostic flow is different from
that given below, or if additional explanation is required, the details of such differences or additions will also
be listed.
