Front Accessory Power Socket Circuit Troubleshooting

Front Accessory Power Socket Circuit Troubleshooting 

1. Problem verification

   -1. Test the front accessory power socket.

   Does the front accessory power socket workΩ

   YES 

   Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for loose or poor connections.

   NO 

   Go to step 2.

2. Fuse check

   -1. Check the following fuses.

   Fuse	No. D13 (7.5 A)
   Location	Driver's under-dash fuse/relay box

   Fuse	No. E13 (20 A)
   Location	Passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box

   Is each fuse OK?

   YES 

   Go to step 3.

   NO 

   Replace the fuse. If the fuse blows again, repair a short to ground in the No. D13 (7.5 A) and/or No. E13 (20 A) fuse circuit(s).

3. Front accessory power socket relay check

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   -2. Remove the front accessory power socket relay from the under-dash relay holder, and test it .

   Is the relay OK?

   YES 

   Go to step 4.

   NO 

   Replace the front accessory power socket relay, then recheck.

4. Open wire check (+B FR ACC SOCKET line) 1

   -1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Is there battery voltage?

   YES 

   Go to step 5.

   NO 

   Replace the passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box .

5. Open wire check (+B FR ACC SOCKET line) 2

   -1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Is there battery voltage?

   YES 

   The +B FR ACC SOCKET wire is OK. Go to step 6.

   NO 

   Repair an open or high resistance in the wire.

6. Determine possible failure area (front accessory power socket relay switch side circuit, front accessory power socket relay coil side circuit)

   -1. Connect terminals A and B with a jumper wire.

   Terminal A	Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 5 (BLK)
   Terminal B	Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 6 (PNK)

   Does the front accessory power socket workΩ

   YES 

   Go to step 7.

   NO 

   Go to step 10.

7. Open wire check (ACC line) 1

   -1. Remove the jumper wire.

   -2. Turn the vehicle to the ACCESSORY mode.

   -3. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle ACCESSORY modeFront accessory power socket relay: disconnected
   Test circuit	ACC
   Test point 1	Driver's under-dash fuse/relay box connector G (16P) No. 12 (PUR)
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there battery voltage?

   YES 

   Go to step 8.

   NO 

   Replace the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box .

8. Open wire check (ACC line) 2

   -1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle ACCESSORY modeFront accessory power socket relay: disconnected
   Test circuit	ACC
   Test point 1	Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 7 (PUR)
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there battery voltage?

   YES 

   The ACC wire is OK. Go to step 9.

   NO 

   Repair an open or high resistance in the wire.

9. Open wire check (GND line)

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   -2. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) modeFront accessory power socket relay: disconnected
   Test circuit	GND
   Test point 1	Front accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 8 (BLK)
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The GND wire is OK. Replace the front accessory power socket relay.

   NO 

   Repair an open or high resistance in the ground wire or poor ground (G503).

10. Open wire check (FR ACC SOCKET line)

    -1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) modeFront accessory power socket relay: disconnectedFront accessory power socket relay 4P socket No. 5 and No. 6: jumped
