STEP 9. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-301 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-301 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 10.
NO : Repair or replace the connector. Refer to GROUP

00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Check

that the rear window defogger system works normally.

STEP 10. Check the wiring harness between rear window
defogger relay connector C-306 (terminal 1) and
ETACS-ECU C-301 (terminal 12).

• Check the rear window defogger relay power supply line for

open circuit.

relay connector C-306 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU
C-301 (terminal 12) in good condition?
YES : Check that the rear window defogger system works

normally.

NO : Repair the wiring harness. Check that the rear

window defogger system works normally.

STEP 11. Check the wiring harness between rear window
defogger relay connector C-306 (terminal 2) and
A/C-control panel connector C-119 (terminal 6).

• Check the A/C-ECU signal line for open and short circuit.

Q: Is the wiring harness between rear window defogger

relay connector C-306 (terminal 2) and A/C-control panel
connector C-119 (terminal 6) in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 12.
NO : Repair or replace the wiring harness. Refer to

STEP 12. Check the wiring harness between rear window
defogger relay connector C-306 (terminal 3) and rear
window defogger connector F-20 (terminal 1).
NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-32 and D-12 for
loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed
back in the connector. If intermediate connector C-32 and D-12
is damaged, repair or replace the connector as described in
GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

.

• Check the rear window defogger power supply line for open

circuit.

Q: Is the wiring harness between rear window defogger

relay connector C-306 (terminal 3) and rear window
defogger connector F-20 (terminal 1) in good condition?
YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use

.

NO : Repair or replace the wiring harness. Refer to

GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Check that the rear window defogger

system works normally.

STEP 13. Check rear window defogger connector F-05 for
loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is rear window defogger connector F-05 in good

condition?
YES : Go to Step 14.
NO : Repair or replace the connector. Refer to GROUP

00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Check

that the rear window defogger system works normally.

STEP 14. Measure the resistance at rear window defogger
connector F-05.
(1) Disconnect rear window defogger connector F-05, and

measure at the wiring harness side.

(2) Measure the resistance between terminal 1 and ground.

• The measured value should be 2 ohms or less.

Q: Does the measured resistance value correspond with

this range?
YES : Go to Step 16.
NO : Go to Step 15.

STEP 15. Check the wiring harness between rear window
defogger connector F-05 (terminal 1) and the ground.

• Check the rear window defogger ground line for open cir-

cuit.

Q: Is the wiring harness between rear window defogger

connector F-05 (terminal 1) and the ground in good
condition?
YES : Check that the rear window defogger system works

normally.

NO : Repair or replace the wiring harness. Refer to

GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Check that the rear window defogger

system works normally.

STEP 16. Check the rear window defogger.
(1) Let the engine run at 2,000 r/min, and check the printed

heater with the battery fully charged.

(2) Turn on the rear window defogger switch, and use a

voltmeter to measure the voltage in each printed heater at
middle point A on the rear window glass.

• The value should be approximately 6 volts.

Q: Does the rear window defogger work normally?

YES : Replace the A/C-ECU. Check that the rear window

defogger system works normally.

NO : Repair the rear window defogger.
