STEP 33. Check rear light (RH) connector G-12 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is rear light (RH) connector G-12 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 34.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Verify that the taillight (RH) illuminates

normally.

STEP 34. Check the ground circuit to the taillight (RH). Test
at rear light (RH) connector G-12.
(1) Disconnect rear light (RH) connector G-12 and measure the

resistance available at the wiring harness side of the
connector.

(2) Measure the resistance value between terminal 3 and

ground.

• The resistance should equal 2 ohms or less.

Q: Is the measured resistance 2 ohms or less?

YES : Go to Step 36.
NO : Go to Step 35.

STEP 35. Check the wiring harness between rear light (RH)
connector G-12 (terminal 3) and ground.

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between rear light (RH) connector

G-12 (terminal 3) and ground in good condition?
YES : Replace the rear combination light socket (RH). Verify

that the taillight (RH) 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 (RH) illuminates normally.

STEP 36. Check front-ECU connector A-07X for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is front-ECU connector A-07X in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 37.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Verify that the taillight (RH) illuminates

normally.
