Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Inspection Procedure
- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST BY HAND-HELD TESTER
- Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch ON and push the hand-held tester main SW ON.
- Select the item "STEP LIGHT" in the ACTIVE TEST and operate the step light.
OK: Step light SW ON in tester - Step lamp lights up.
NG: Go to step 14
OK: Go to Next Step
- CHECK STEP LAMP ASSY
- CHECK DOOR LOCK
B: Go to step 6
C: Go to step 8
A: Go to Next Step
- CHECK POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MASTER SWITCH ASSY
- Unlock the driver side door.
- Measure voltage between terminal 16 (LSWD) of the power window regulator master switch and 2 (GND).
Standard:

OK: CHECK AND REPLACE DRIVER SIDE JUNCTION BLOCK ASSY
NG: Go to Next Step
- Check that signal waveform appears between terminal B6-1 (PCTY), B4-11 (RRCY), B4-14 (RRCY) or B4-12 (RLCY) and 2 (GND) of driver side J/B assy.
- INSPECT COURTESY LAMP SWITCH
- Inspect courtesy lamp switch continuity.
- Check that the continuity exists between terminal 1 and body ground, when switch is operated.
Standard:
- ON (When shaft is pressed): No continuity
- OFF (When shaft is not pressed): Continuity
NG: REPLACE COURTESY LAMP SWITCH
OK: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (BETWEEN DRIVER SIDE J/B ASSY AND COURTESY LAMP SWITCH)
- Inspect courtesy lamp switch continuity.
- CHECK DRIVER SIDE JUNCTION BLOCK ASSY (IG SIGNAL INPUT)
- Measure voltage between terminal 9 (SIG) and 2A-8 (GND1) of driver side J/B assy.
Standard: IG switch ON --> 10 --> 14V
OK: CHECK AND REPLACE DRIVER SIDE JUNCTION BLOCK ASSY.
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (BETWEEN IG SWITCH AND DRIVER SIDE J/B ASSY)
- Measure voltage between terminal 9 (SIG) and 2A-8 (GND1) of driver side J/B assy.
- CHECK STEP LAMP ASSY
- Check the continuity between terminals of step lamp assy.
Standard: There is continuity.
NG: REPLACE STEP LAMP ASSY
OK: Go to next step
- Check the continuity between terminals of step lamp assy.
- CHECK DRIVER SIDE JUNCTION BLOCK ASSY (STEP LAMP ASSY OUTPUT)
- Measure voltage between terminal B5-4 (FSPT) and 2A-8 (GND1) of the driver side J/B assy.
NG: CHECK AND REPLACE DRIVER SIDE JUNCTION BLOCK ASSY

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
