.

•

If the multivision display is reset or sound jump
occurs at the auto restart by Auto Stop & Go
(AS&G) System, carry out the DC/DC converter
troubleshooting of "Audio equipment reset or
sound jump occurs at auto start". (Refer to .)
<Vehicles with Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) System>

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

Inspection Procedure 1: No navigation screen is displayed. <Vehicles without Auto Stop & Go (AS&G)
System>

CAUTION

Before replacing the multivision display, ensure that the power supply circuit, the earth circuit, and
the communication circuit are normal. (Check that the voltage is 10 V or more.)

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM
When the ignition switch is turned to the ACC or ON
position, if the screen is not displayed at all, the
power supply circuit or multivision display may have
a problem.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of power supply circuit

• Malfunction of multivision display

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. M.U.T.-III other system data list
Check the input signal of ACC relay.

• Turn the ignition switch to the ACC position.

OK: Normal condition is displayed.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Refer to ETACS

− Input Signal Procedure 1

"The ignition switch (ACC) signal is not sent
to the ETACS-ECU" .

STEP 2. Connector check: C-144 multivision
display and C-313 ETACS-ECU connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 3.

NO :

Repair the defective connector.

STEP 3. Voltage measurement at C-144
multivision display connector.
(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the

wiring harness-side connector.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the ACC position.
(3) Voltage between C-144 multivision display

connector terminal No.14 and the body earth

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5.

NO :

Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check the wiring harness between C-144
multivision display connector terminal No.14 and
C-313 ETACS-ECU connector terminal No.1

• Check the power supply lines (battery power sup-

ply) for open circuit and short circuit.

NOTE: Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check
intermediate connector C-139, C-128 and C-31, and
repair if necessary.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

The trouble can be an intermittent

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00

− How to

use Troubleshooting/inspection Service
Points

− How to Cope with Intermittent

Malfunction ).

NO :

Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 5. Connector check: C-142, C-143, C-144
multivision display connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 6.

NO :

Repair or replace the damaged
component(s).

STEP 6. Resistance measurement at C-142, C-
143, C-144 multivision display connector.
(1) Disconnect C-144 multivision display connector,

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

(2) Check the continuity between terminal No.9 and

body earth.

OK: Continuity exists (2

Ω or less)

(3) Disconnect C-143 multivision display connector,

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

(4) Check the continuity between terminal No.25 and

body earth.

OK: Continuity exists (2

Ω or less)

(5) Disconnect C-142 multivision display connector,

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

(6) Check the continuity between terminal No. 65

and body earth.

OK: Continuity exists (2

Ω or less)

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 8.

NO :

Go to Step 7.

STEP 7. Check the wiring harness between C-144
multivision display connector terminal No.9 or C-
143 multivision display connector terminal No.25
or C-142 multivision display connector terminal
No.65 and body earth.
NOTE: Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check
intermediate connector C-133 and C-139, and repair
if necessary.

• Check the earth wires for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

The trouble can be an intermittent

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00

− How to

use Troubleshooting/inspection Service
Points

− How to Cope with Intermittent

Malfunction ).

NO :

Repair the wiring harness.
