STEP 7. Check the wiring harness between joint connector
C-01 (terminal 4) and rear combination light (LH) connector
F-09 (terminal 4).

NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-25 for loose, cor-
roded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector. If intermediate connector C-25 is damaged, repair or
replace the damaged component(s) as described in GROUP
00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between joint connector C-01

(terminal 4) and rear combination light (LH) connector
F-09 (terminal 4) in good condition?
YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the

connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary. The taillight
(LH) and the license plate light should illuminate
normally.

STEP 8. Check rear combination light (LH) connector F-09
for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is rear combination light (LH) connector F-09 in good

condition?
YES : Go to Step 9.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Check that the taillight (LH) illuminates

normally.

STEP 9. Check the stop/taillight bulb (LH).
(1) Remove the stop/taillight bulb (LH).
(2) Verify that the stop/taillight bulb (LH) is not damaged or

burned out.

Q: Is the stop/taillight bulb (LH) in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 10.
NO : Replace the stop/taillight bulb (LH). Verify that the

taillight (LH) illuminates normally.

STEP 10. Check the ground circuit to the rear combination
light (LH). Measure the resistance at rear combination light
(LH) connector F-09.
(1) Disconnect rear combination light (LH) connector F-09 and

measure the resistance available at the wiring harness side
of the connector.

(2) Measure the resistance value between terminal 2 and

ground.

• The resistance should be 2 ohms or less.

Q: Is the measured resistance 2 ohms or less?

YES : Go to Step 12.
NO : Go to Step 11.

STEP 11. Check the wiring harness between rear
combination light (LH) connector F-09 (terminal 2) and
ground.
Q: Is the wiring harness between rear combination light

(LH) connector F-09 (terminal 2) and ground in good
condition?
YES : Replace the rear combination light socket (LH). Verify

that the taillight (LH) illuminates normally.

NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the

connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary. Verify that
the taillight (LH) illuminates normally.

STEP 12. Check the wiring harness between rear
combination light (LH) connector F-09 (terminal 4) and
intermediate connector C-25 (terminal 10).
Q: Is the wiring harness between rear combination light

(LH) connector F-09 (terminal 4) and intermediate
connector C-25 (terminal 10) in good condition?
YES : Replace the rear combination light socket (LH). Verify

that the taillight (LH) illuminates normally.

NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the

connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary. Verify that
the taillight (LH) illuminates normally.

STEP 13. Check rear combination light (RH) connector
F-03 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or
terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is rear combination light (RH) connector F-03 in good

condition?
YES : Go to Step 14.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Check that the taillight (RH) illuminates

normally.

STEP 14. Check the stop/taillight bulb (RH).
(1) Remove the stop/taillight bulb (RH).
(2) Verify that the stop/taillight bulb (RH) is not damaged or

burned out.

Q: Is the stop/taillight bulb (RH) in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 15.
NO : Replace the stop/taillight bulb (RH). Verify that the

taillight (RH) illuminates normally.

STEP 15. Check the ground circuit to the rear combination
light (RH). Measure the resistance at rear combination light
(RH) connector F-03.
(1) Disconnect rear light (RH) connector F-03 and measure the

resistance available at the wiring harness side of the
connector.

(2) Measure the resistance value between terminal 2 and

ground.

• The resistance should be 2 ohms or less.

Q: Is the measured resistance 2 ohms or less?
