(One Touch Power Window System/Current of Circuit)
Inspection using an ammeter.
(a) Disconnect the connector from the master switch.
(b) C onnect the positive (+) lead from the ammeter to
terminal 9 on the wire harness side connector and the
negative (±) lead to negative terminal of the battery.
(c) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
10 on the wire harness side connector.
(d) As the window goes down, check that the current flow is approximately 7 amperes.
(e) Check that the current increases approximately 14.5 amperes or more when the window stops going down.
HINT: The circuit breaker opens some 4±40 seconds after the
window stops going down, so that check must be made be-
fore the circuit breaker operates.
If the operation is as specified, replace the master switch.
Inspection using an ammeter with a current±measuring
probe.
(a) Remove the master switch with connector connected.
(b) Attach a current±measuring probe to terminal 4 of the
wire harness.
(c) Turn the ignition switch ON and set the power window switch in the down position.
(d) As the window goes down, check that the current flow
is approximately 7 amperes.
(e) Check that the current increases approximately 14.5 amperes or more when the window stops going down.
HINT: The circuit breaker opens some 4±40 seconds after the
window stops going down, so that check must be made be-
fore the circuit breaker operates.

LIQUID CRYSTAL INNER MIRROR
SYSTEM
Description
The liquid crystal inner mirror replaces the previous mirror, which mechanically switched between the ªDayº and
ªNightº settings, with liquid crystal inside the mirror which changes the bright\
ness of the mirror surface. The com-
ponent parts of this system and their functions are shown in the table below.
Parts NameFunction
Liquid Crystal Inner
MirrorReceives current from the fuse DOME and changes the surface brightness o\
f the mirror
when switch is operated.
