CONNECTOR SYMBOLS
Most of connector symbols in wiring diagrams are shown from the
terminal side.

Connector symbols shown from the terminal side are enclosed
by a single line and followed by the direction mark.

Connector symbols shown from the harness side are enclosed
by a double line and followed by the direction mark.

Certain systems and components, especially related to OBD,
may use a new style slide-locking type harness connector. For
description and how to disconnect, refer to PG-68, "
HARNESS
CONNECTOR" .

Male and female terminals
Connector guides for male terminals are shown in black and
female terminals in white in wiring diagrams.

Number 14 of this chart.
31 Fusible link and fuse
box

This shows the arrangement of fusible link(s) and fuse(s), used for connector views of
"POWER SUPPLY ROUTING" in PG section.
The open square shows current flow in, and the shaded square shows current flow out.

Harness Indication

Letter designations next to test meter probe indicate harness
(connector) wire color.

Connector numbers in a single circle M33 indicate harness con-
nectors.
Component Indication
Connector numbers in a double circle F211 indicate component connectors.
Switch Positions
Switches are shown in wiring diagrams as if the vehicle is in the “normal” condition.
A vehicle is in the “normal” condition when:

ignition switch is “OFF”,

doors, hood and trunk lid/back door are closed,

pedals are not depressed, and

parking brake is released.
Detectable Lines and Non-Detectable Lines
In some wiring diagrams, two kinds of lines, representing wires, with different weight are used.

A line with regular weight (wider line) represents a “detectable
line for DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) ”. A “detectable line for
DTC ” is a circuit in which ECM can detect its malfunctions with
the on board diagnostic system.

A line with less weight (thinner line) represents a “non-detect-
able line for DTC ”. A “non-detectable line for DTC ” is a circuit in
which ECM cannot detect its malfunctions with the on board
diagnostic system.
Multiple Switch
The continuity of multiple switch is described in two ways as shown below.

The switch chart is used in schematic diagrams.

Freezing

Water intrusion

Electrical load

Cold or hot start up
Get a thorough description of the incident from the customer. It is important for simulating the conditions of the
problem.
Vehicle Vibration
The problem may occur or become worse while driving on a rough road or when engine is vibrating (idle with
A/C on). In such a case, you will want to check for a vibration related condition. Refer to the following illustra-
tion.
CONNECTORS & HARNESS
Determine which connectors and wiring harness would affect the electrical system you are inspecting. Gently
shake each connector and harness while monitoring the system for the incident you are trying to duplicate.
This test may indicate a loose or poor electrical connection.
HINT
Connectors can be exposed to moisture. It is possible to get a thin film of corrosion on the connector termi-
nals. A visual inspection may not reveal this without disconnecting the connector. If the problem occurs inter-
mittently, perhaps the problem is caused by corrosion. It is a good idea to disconnect, inspect and clean the
terminals on related connectors in the system.
SENSORS & RELAYS
Gently apply a slight vibration to sensors and relays in the system you are inspecting.
This test may indicate a loose or poorly mounted sensor or relay.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT
There are several reasons a vehicle or engine vibration could cause an electrical complaint. Some of the
things to check for are:

Connectors not fully seated.

Wiring harness not long enough and is being stressed due to engine vibrations or rocking.

Wires laying across brackets or moving components.

Loose, dirty or corroded ground wires.

Wires routed too close to hot components.
To inspect components under the hood, start by verifying the integrity of ground connections. (Refer to Ground
Inspection described later.) First check that the system is properly grounded. Then check for loose connection
by gently shaking the wiring or components as previously explained. Using the wiring diagrams inspect the
wiring for continuity.
BEHIND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
An improperly routed or improperly clamped harness can become pinched during accessory installation. Vehi-
cle vibration can aggravate a harness which is routed along a bracket or near a screw.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
If the CONSULT-II cannot diagnose the system properly, check the following items:
NOTE:
The preceding schematic is an example and may not be a true representation of the vehicle. The actual DDL1
circuits (CAN lines) from DLC pins 6 and 14 as well as the DDL2 circuit (K-line) from DLC pin 7 may be con-
nected to more than one system. A short in a DDL circuit connected to a control unit in one system may affect
CONSULT-II access to other systems.
BCIA0029E
LAIA0028E
Symptom Check item

any system.

CONSULT-II DLC power supply circuit (Terminal 8) and ground circuit (Terminal 4). For detailed cir-
cuit, refer to EC-635, "

CONSULT-II cannot access
individual system. (Other sys-
tems can be accessed.)

ing diagram for each system.)

Open or short circuit between the system and CONSULT-II DLC (For detailed circuit, refer to wiring
diagram for each system.)

Open or short circuit in CAN or K communication line. Refer to LAN-3, "Precautions When Using
CONSULT-II" .
