CONNECTOR ENGAGEMENT INSPECTION
Required Special Tool:
MB991219: Inspection Harness (contained in MB991223 Test
Harness)
Use special tool, MB991219 to inspect the engagement of the
male pins and female pins. [Pin drawing force: 1 N (0.2 pound)
or more]
HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT
MALFUNCTIONS
Most intermittent malfunctions occur under certain
conditions. If those conditions can be identified, the
cause will be easier to find.
TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION;
1. Ask the customer about the malfunction
Ask what it feels like, what it sounds like, etc. Then
ask about driving conditions, weather, frequency of
occurrence, and so on.
2. Determine the conditions from the customer's
responses
Typically, almost all intermittent malfunctions occur
from conditions like vibration, temperature and/or
moisture change, poor connections. From the
customer's responses, it should be reasoned which
condition is influenced.
3. Use simulation test
In the cases of vibration or poor connections, use the
simulation tests below to attempt to duplicate the
customer's complaint. Determine the most likely
circuit(s) and perform the simulation tests on the
connectors and parts of that circuit(s). Be sure to use
the inspection procedures provided for diagnostic
trouble codes and trouble symptoms.
For temperature and/or moisture conditions related
intermittent malfunctions try to change the conditions
of the suspected circuit components, then use the
simulation tests below.
4. Verify the intermittent malfunction is
eliminated
Repair the malfunctioning part and try to duplicate
the condition(s) again to verify the intermittent
malfunction has been eliminated.
SIMULATION TESTS
NOTE: In case of difficulty in finding the cause of the
intermittent malfunction, the data recorder function in the scan
tool is effective.

For these simulation tests, shake, then gently bend, pull, and
twist the wiring of each of these examples to duplicate the
intermittent malfunction.
•
Shake the connector up-and-down, and right-and-left.
•
Shake the wiring harness up-and-down, and right-and-left.
•
Vibrate the part or sensor.

INSPECTION SERVICE POINTS FOR A BLOWN
FUSE
Remove the fuse and measure the resistance between the load
side of the fuse and ground. Set the switches of all circuits
which are connected to this fuse to a condition of continuity. If
the resistance is almost 0
Ω
at this time, there is a short
somewhere between these switches and the load. If the
resistance is not 0
Ω
, there is no short at the present time, but a
momentary short has probably caused the fuse to blow.
The main causes of a short circuit are the following.
•
Harness being clamped by the vehicle body
•
Damage to the outer casing of the harness due to wear or
heat
•
Water getting into the connector or circuitry
•
Human error (mistakenly shorting a circuit, etc.)

VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION CODE CHART PLATE
All vehicle identification numbers contain 17 digits. The vehicle
number is a code which tells country, make, vehicle type, etc.
NOTE: *: Check digit means a singles number or letter X used
to verify the accuracy of transcription of vehicle identification
number.
