DISPOSAL
HINT:
Dispose of the RH side by following the same procedures as with the LH side.
1. DISPOSE OF SHOCK ABSORBER ASSY FRONT LH
(a) Fully extend the shock absorber rod.
(b) Using a drill, make a hole in the cylinder as shown in the
illustration to discharge the gas inside.
CAUTION:
Be careful when drilling because shards of metal may
fly about. Always use the proper safety equipment.
The gas is colorless, odorless and non-poisonous.

DESCRIPTION
1. RADIO WAVE BAND
The radio wave bands used in radio broadcasting are as follows:
LF: Low Frequency
MF: Medium Frequency
HF: High Frequency
VHF: Very High Frequency
2. SERVICE AREA
(a) There is a great difference in the size of the service areas
for AM and FM broadcasting. Sometimes an FM stereo
broadcast cannot be received even though AM can be re-
ceived very clearly.
FM stereo has the smaller service area, it also picks up
static and other types of interference (ºnoiseº) easily.
3. RECEPTION PROBLEMS
HINT:
Besides the problem of static, there are other problems, such as ºphasingº, ºmultipathº and ºfade outº. These
problems are caused not by electrical noise but by the nature of the radio waves themselves.
(a) Phasing
Besides electrical interference, AM broadcasts are also
susceptible to other types of interference, especially at
night. This is because AM radio waves bounce off the ion-
osphere at night. These radio waves then interfere with
the signals that reach the vehicle's antenna directly from
the same transmitter. This type of interference is called
ºphasingº.

(b) Multipath
Interference caused by reflection of radio waves against
obstructions is called ºMultipathº. Multipath occurs when
radio signals emitted from the broadcast transmitter an-
tenna are reflected against tall buildings or mountains
and interferes with other signals which are to be received
directly.
(c) Fade Out
FM radio wave tends to be reflected against obstructions
such as tall buildings or mountains because FM frequen-
cy is higher than that of AM. For this reason, FM signals
often seem to gradually disappear or fade away as the ve-
hicle goes behind those obstructions. This phenomenon
is called ºfade outº.
4. NOISE PROBLEMS
(a) It is very important for technicians to understand a customer's claim about noise clearly. Use the follow-
ing table to diagnose the phenomena.
Radio waveCondition in which noise occursProbable cause
Noise occurs at a specific place.Strong possibility of foreign noise.
AMNoise occurs when listening to faint broadcasting.The same program may be broadcasted from some local sta-
tions. If the program is the same, one of those may be tuned
in.
Noise occurs only at night.Strong possibility of beat from a distant broadcasting.
FMNoise occurs at a specific place during driving.Strong possibility of multipath noise and phasing noise caused
by changes of FM frequency.
HINT:
If the condition when the noise occurs does not meet any of the above, find out the cause based on ºRecep-
tion Problemsº. Refer to the description about Multipath and Phasing mentioned previously.
5. COMPACT DISC PLAYER
(a) Compact Disc (hereafter called ºCDº) Players use a laser beam pick-up to read the digital signals re-
corded on the CD and reproduce analog signals of the music, etc. 4.7 in. (12 cm) and 3.2 in. (8 cm)
discs are available for the CD player.
HINT:
Never disassemble or apply oil to any part of the player unit. Do not insert any object other than a disc, into
the CD player.
NOTICE:
CD players use an invisible laser beam which could cause hazardous radiation exposure. Be sure
to operate the player correctly as instructed.

6. MAINTENANCE
Tape Player/Head Cleaning:
(a) Raise the cassette door with your finger.
Using a pencil or similar object, push in the guide.
(b) Using a cleaning pen or cotton applicator soaked in clean-
er, clean the head surface, pinch rollers and capstans.
7. MAINTENANCE
CD Player/Disc Cleaning:
If the disc gets dirty, clean the disc by wiping the surface from
the center to outside in the radial directions with a soft cloth.
NOTICE:
Do not use a conventional record cleaner or anti-static pre-
servative.
8. AVC-LAN Description
(a) What is AVC-LAN?
AVC-LAN, an abbreviation for ºAudio Visual Communication Local Area Networkº, is a united standard
developed by the manufacturers in affiliation with Toyota Motor Corporation. This standard pertains
to audio and visual signals as well as switch and communication signals.
(b) Purpose:
Recently, car audio systems have rapidly developed and the functions vastly changed. The conven-
tional car audio system is being integrated with multi-media interfaces similar to those in navigation
systems. At the same time, customers are demanding higher quality from their audio systems. This
is merely an overview of the standardization background. The specific purposes are as follows.
(1) To solve sound problems, etc. caused by using components of different manufacturers through
signal standardization.
(2) To allow each manufacturer to concentrate on developing products they do best. From this, rea-
sonably priced products can be produced.
HINT:
If a +B or GND short is detected in the AVC-LAN circuit, communication is interrupted and the audio
system will stop functioning.

If an audio system is equipped with a navigation system, the multi-display unit acts as the master unit.
If the navigation system is not equipped, the audio head unit acts as the master unit instead. If the radio
and navigation assy is equipped, it is the master unit.
The radio receiver assy provides resistance to make communication possible.
The car audio system with an AVC-LAN circuit has a diagnostic function.
Each component has a specified number (3-digit) called a physical address. Each function has a num-
ber (2-digit) called a logical address.
9. Communication system outline
(a) Components of the audio system communicate with each other via the AVC-LAN.
(b) Radio receiver assy has enough resistance (60 to 80 W) necessary for transmitting the communication.
This is essential for communication.
(c) If a short circuit or open circuit occurs in the AVC-LAN circuit, communication is interrupted and the
audio system will stop functioning.
10. Diagnostic function outline
(a) The audio system has a diagnostic function (the result is indicated on the master unit).
(b) A 3-digit hexadecimal component code (physical address) is allocated to each component on the
AVC-LAN. Using this code, the component in the diagnostic function can be displayed.
