TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
How to Perform Trouble DiagnosisINFOID:0000000003532520
BASIC CONCEPT
• To perform trouble diagnosis, it is the most important to have understanding about vehicle systems (control
and mechanism) thoroughly.
• It is also important to clarify customer complaints before inspec-
tion.
First of all, reproduce symptoms, and understand them fully.
Ask customer about his/her complaints carefully. In some cases, it
will be necessary to check symptoms by driving vehicle with cus-
tomer.
CAUTION:
Customers are not professional. It is dangerous to make an
easy guess like "maybe the customer means that...," or
"maybe the customer mentions this symptom".
• It is essential to check symptoms right from the beginning in order
to repair malfunctions completely.
For intermittent malfunctions, reproduce symptoms based on inter-
view with customer and past examples. Do not perform inspection
on ad hoc basis. Most intermittent malfunctions are caused by
poor contacts. In this case, it will be effective to shake suspected
harness or connector by hand. When repairing without any symp-
tom diagnosis, you cannot judge if malfunctions have actually been
eliminated.
• After completing diagnosis, always erase diagnostic memory.
Refer to TF-48, "
Self-Diagnosis Procedure" .
• For intermittent malfunctions, move harness or harness connector
by hand. Then check for poor contact or reproduced open circuit.
