INSPECTION PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE
1. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION
(a) Turn the engine switch off.
(b) Inspect the condition of the connector terminal.
OK:
Connector and terminal are not deformed or damaged. Terminal is not loose or corroded.
OK -- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FRONT ACTIVE STABILIZER CONTROL ECU - FRONT ACTIVE STABILIZER CONTROL ACTUATOR)
NG -- Continue to next step.
2. CHECK DTC
(a) Repair the connector or terminal.
(b) Check for DTC Active Stabilizer Suspension System.
Result
B -- END
A -- Continue to next step.
3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FRONT ACTIVE STABILIZER CONTROL ECU - FRONT ACTIVE STABILIZER CONTROL ACTUATOR)
(a) Turn the engine switch off.
(b) Disconnect the z7 and z9 front active stabilizer control ECU connector.
(c) Disconnect the D front active stabilizer control actuator (rotation angle sensor) connector.
(d) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:
NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. CHECK OPERATION OF FRONT ACTIVE STABILIZER CONTROL ECU
(a) Turn the engine switch off.
(b) Exchange the front active stabilizer control ECU with the rear active stabilizer control ECU.
(c) Connect Techstream to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the engine switch on (IG) and press the Techstream main switch ON.
(e) Clear the DTC Active Stabilizer Suspension System.
(f) Check for DTC.
Result
A -- REPLACE FRONT ACTIVE STABILIZER CONTROL ACTUATOR
B -- REPLACE FRONT ACTIVE STABILIZER CONTROL ECU
