HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING
Perform troubleshooting in accordance with the procedure on the following page.\

CUSTOMER PROBLEM ANALYSIS
Using the customer problem analysis check sheet for reference, ask the c\
ustomer in as much detail as
possible about the problem.
\b PROBLEM SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION,  SYMPTOM SIMULATION.
Confirm the problem symptoms. If the problem does not reappear, be sure to simulate the problem using
the ºProblem Simulation Methodsº.
When checking the problem symptoms, pay attention to the following points to\
accurately define the symp-
toms and the extent of the problem:
For ºNot Functioningº problems:
(1) Is the problem only in one part (e.g. ºreclining onlyº), or ever\
ything?
(2) Is the problem only for manual operation, only for position return opera\
tion, or for both manual and position return operation?
(3) Is tilt, telescopic and outer mirror operation normal?
(4) Does the problem occur with the ignition key inserted, or not inserted?
 MATRIX CHART OF PROBLEM SYMPTOMS
Confirm the order of inspection on the matrix chart for the particular problem symptom involved. For ºNot
Functioningº problems, pay attention to the points in \b. to find out the specifics of the problem, then choose
the most appropriate problem symptom from among those listed on the matr\
ix chart, and proceed with trou-
bleshooting accordingly.
 CIRCUIT INSPECTION
Proceed with diagnosis of each circuit in accordance with the inspection\
order confirmed in .
Determine whether the cause of the problem is in the sensor, actuators, wire harness and connectors, or
the ECU.
 POSITION SENSOR CHECK
This function checks that the signal from each position sensor is correctly input into\
the ECU when the
manual switch is turned ON. The instructions for this diagnosis are included in\
the flow chart for the position
sensor circuit.
 REPAIR
After the cause of the problem is located, perform repairs by following the i\
nspection and replacement pro-
cedures is this manual.
 CONFIRMATION TEST
After completing repairs, confirm that the problem is eliminated and that tilt, telescopic and outer mirror
operation is normal.

Serial Communication Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Memory and return command signals and mutual commu-
nication during return operation pass between the ECU and
the tilt & telescopic ECU in the from of serial data communica-
tion. Signals activating memory and return operation are sent
from the tilt & telescopic ECU to the ECU and mirror ECU.
When the ECU receives a memory signals, its position is
memorized, and when a return signal is received, the position
is returned to the memorized position.
During return operation, tilt & telescopic ECU and ECU continue mutual communi\
cation constantly, and if a mal-
function should occur in the communication wire, the tilt & telescopic ECU stops signal output to the ECU and
stops return operation. However, the tilt & telescopic ECU continues return operation. Even with power \
return
stopped, manual switch operation of the power seat is possible. The mirror ECU receives activation signals only
and is not involved in reciprocal communication during return operation, so\
even when a reply signal from the
ECU to the tilt & telescopic ECU is abnormal and the power seat stops retur\
n operation, the mirror ECU contin-
ues return operation.

PRECAUTIONS
Take care to observe the following precautions when performing inspection\
s or removal and replacement
of body electrical related parts.
1. SRS AIR±BAG SYSTEM

Work must be started approx. 20 seconds after the ignition is set to the Loc\
k position and the negative
(±) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery. (See page AB±2)

When disconnecting any of the connectors in the SRS AIR±BAG system, be su\
re to Lock the ignition
switch and disconnect the battery negative (±) terminal first. Since the connectors are twin \
lock type
connectors, disconnect the connectors only after releasing the first stage lock.

When connecting SRS AIR±BAG system connectors, be sure to lock them secur\
ely. (If the connectors
are not locked securely, the system may not operate when needed.)

Always store the steering wheel pad with the pad surface facing upward. (Stor\
ing the pad with its
metallic surface up may lead to a serious accident if the air bag inflates for s\
ome reason.)

When installing the spiral cable, be sure the vehicle is in the straight ahe\
ad condition and confirm that
the spiral cable is in the neutral position when it is installed. (See pag\
e BE±40)

INFORMATION LABELS (NOTICE) are attached to the periphery of the air bag componen\
ts. Follow
the NOTICE.
2. MICRO COMPUTER PRESET DRIVING POSITION SYSTEM
Power Seat Control System
Power Mirror Control System
Power Tilt and Telescopic Steering System

If the battery negative (±) terminal is disconnected, the preset driv\
ing positions stored in memory are
erased, so be sure to note the positions and reset them after the battery termi\
nal is reconnected.
3. AUDIO SYSTEM

If the battery negative (±) terminal is disconnected, the preset AM, F\
M 1 and FM 2 stations stored in
memory are erased, so be sure to note the stations and reset them after the battery terminal is
reconnected.

If the battery negative (±) terminal is disconnected, the ºANTI±\
THEFT SYSTEMº will operate when
the terminal is reconnected, but the radio, tape player and CD player will \
not operate. Be sure to input
the correct ID number so that the radio, tape player and CD player can be o\
perated again.
