Basic Diagnostic Procedure
WIRING SYSTEM
•The wire color code, which consists of two letters
(or three letters including Br or Lg), indicates the
standard color (base color of the wire covering) by
its first letter and the stripe marking by its second
letter.
•The table lists the nominal sectional areas and
allowable currents of the wires.
CAUTION:
When replacing or repairing a wire, be sure to
use the same size and type of the wire which
was originally used.
NOTE:
•The allowable current in the table indicates the
tolerable amperage of each wire at an ambient
temperature of 40°C (104°F).
•The allowable current changes with ambient
temperature. Also, it changes if a bundle of more
than two wires is used.
•Each unit is either directly grounded to the body
or indirectly grounds through a harness ground ter-
minal. Different symbols are used in the wiring dia-
gram to identify the two grounding systems.
•The ground points shown in the wiring diagram
refer to the following:
NOTE:
All wiring harnesses are provided with a ground
point which should be securely connected.

Basic Diagnostic Procedure
WIRING SYSTEM
•Each connector number shown in the wiring dia-
gram corresponds to that in the wiring harness. The
location of each connector in the actual vehicle is
determined by reading the first character of the
connector (for example, a “F” for F8, “i” for i16, etc. )
and the type of wiring harness. The first character
of each connector number corresponds to the area
or system of the vehicle.

Basic Diagnostic Procedure
WIRING SYSTEM
1. RELAY
A symbol used to indicate a relay.
2. CONNECTOR 1
The sketch of the connector indicates the one-pole
types.
3. WIRING CONNECTION
Some wiring diagrams are indicated in foldouts for
convenience. Wiring destinations are indicated
where necessary by corresponding symbols.
(When two pages are needed for clear indication)
4. FUSE NO. & RATING
The “FUSE No. & RATING“ corresponds with that
used in the fuse box (main fuse box, fuse and joint
box).
5. CONNECTOR 2
•Each connector is indicated by a symbol.
•Each terminal number is indicated in the corre-
sponding wiring diagram in an abbreviated form.
•For example, terminal number "G4" refers to No.
4 terminal of connector (G: F41) shown in the con-
nector sketch.
6. CONNECTOR SKETCH
•Each connector sketch clearly identifies the
shape and color of a connector as well as terminal
locations. Non-colored connectors are indicated in
white or natural color.
•When more than two types of connector number
are indicated in a connector sketch, it means that
the same type connectors are used.
7. GROUND
Each grounding point can be located easily by re-
ferring to the corresponding wiring harness.
8. DIODE
A symbol is used to indicate a diode.
9. WIRE TRACING ON EXTENDED WIRING
DIAGRAMS
For a wiring diagram extending over at least two
pages, a symbol (consisting of the same characters
with arrows), facilitates wire tracing from one page
to the next.
A ←→ B, B ←→ B
10.SYMBOLS OF WIRE CONNECTION AND
CROSSING
11.POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT
A symbol is used to indicate the power supply in
each wiring diagram.
“MB-5”, “MB-6”, etc., which are used as power-
supply symbols throughout the text, correspond
with those shown in the “DC POWER SUPPLY
CIRCUIT” in the wiring diagram.
Accordingly, using the “DC POWER SUPPLY CIR-
CUIT” and wiring diagrams permits service person-
nel to understand the entire electrical arrangement
of a system.
12.CLASSIFICATION BY SPECIFICATION
When the wiring diagram differ according to vehicle
specifications, the specification difference is de-
scribed by using abbreviations.

Working Precautions
WIRING SYSTEM
2. Working Precautions
A: PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING
WITH THE PARTS MOUNTED ON
THE VEHICLE
1) When working under a vehicle which is jacked-
up, always be sure to use rigid rack.
2) The parking brake must always be applied dur-
ing working. Also, in automatic transmission vehi-
cles, keep the select lever set to the P (Parking)
range.
3) Be sure the workshop is properly ventilated
when running the engine. Further, be careful not to
touch the belt or fan while the engine is operating.
4) Be careful not to touch hot metal parts, especial-
ly the radiator and exhaust system immediately af-
ter the engine has been turned off.
B: PRECAUTIONS IN TROUBLE DI-
AGNOSIS AND REPAIR OF ELEC-
TRIC PARTS
1) The battery cable must be disconnected from
the battery’s (–) terminal, and the ignition switch
must be set to the OFF position, unless otherwise
required by the diagnostics.
2) Securely fasten the wiring harness with clamps
and slips so that the harness does not interfere with
the body end parts or edges and bolts or screws.
3) When installing parts, be careful not to catch
them on the wiring harness.
4) When disconnecting a connector, do not pull the
wires, but pull while holding the connector body.
5) Some connectors are provided with a lock. One
type of such a connector is disconnected by push-
ing the lock, and the other, by moving the lock up.
In either type the lock shape must be identified be-
fore attempting to disconnect the connector.
To connect, insert the connector until it snaps and
confirm that it is connected securely.
6) When checking continuity between connector
terminals, or measuring voltage across the terminal
and ground, always contact tester probe(s) on ter-
minals from the wiring connection side. If the probe
is too thick to gain access to the terminal, use “mini”
test leads.
To check water-proof connectors (which are not
measurable from the wiring side), contact test
probes on the terminal side. Be careful not to bend
or damage the terminals.
7) Sensors, relays, electrical unit, etc., are sensi-
tive to strong impacts.
Handle them with care so that they are not dropped
or mishandled.
