Inspection Procedure 1: Power supply circuit check
Inspection Procedure 2: The odometer and the trip meter are not displayed.
Inspection Procedure 3: No needle meters work.
Inspection Procedure 4: If the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the indicator and warning lights do not illuminate normally.
 
 
 
 
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the odometer and trip meter is not displayed, odometer and trip meter indicates "-------", or no needle meters work, power supply to the combination meter, or the combination meter itself may have a problem.
 
 
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
  • Damaged harness wires and connectors
  • The combination meter may be defective
 
 
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), check the DTC.
Check if DTC is set in the combination meter.
(1)
cautionTo prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE).
Connect scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE). Refer to "How to connect the Scan Tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) ."
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check the DTC.
Is the DTC set?
Troubleshoot the combination meter. Refer to .
Go to Step 2.
 
STEP 2. Voltage measurement at the combination meter connector
(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2) Measure the voltage between the combination meter connector (B+B terminal) and the body ground.
OK: The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage)
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 4.
Go to Step 3.
 
STEP 3. Check of short to power supply circuit in B+B line between the fusible link and combination meter connector.
Is the check result normal?
The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
 
STEP 4. Voltage measurement at the combination meter connector
(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(3) Measure the voltage between the combination meter connector (IG1 terminal) and the body ground.
OK: The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage)
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 7.
Go to Step 5.
 
STEP 5. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), check data list.
Check the input signal from the ignition switch (IG1) in the ETACS-ECU.
  • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

79IG voltageBattery positive voltage
OK: Normal condition is displayed.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 6.
: Troubleshoot the ETACS-ECU. Refer to Inspection Procedure 2 "The ignition switch (IG1) signal is not received." .
 
STEP 6. Check of short to power supply circuit in IG1 line between the ignition switch (IG1) and combination meter connector.
Is the check result normal?
The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
 
STEP 7. Resistance measurement at the combination meter connector
(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2) Measure the resistance between the combination meter connector (GND terminal) and the body ground.
OK: The resistance should be 2 ohms or less
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 9.
Go to Step 8.
 
STEP 8. Check of short to ground circuit in GND line between combination meter connector and body ground.
Is the check result normal?
The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
 
STEP 9. Retest the system
Is the check result normal?
The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Replace the combination meter.
