10.With the engine running at 2,500 r/min, turn the
headlights and other lights on and off to adjust the
alternator load so that the value displayed on the
ammeter is slightly above 30 A.
Read the voltmeter. Voltage reading at or below
limit value means voltage drop between alternator
and battery is OK.
Limit value: maximum 0.3 V
NOTE: When the alternator output is high and the
value displayed on the ammeter does not
decrease to 30 A, set the value to 40 A. Read the
value displayed on the voltmeter at this time.
In this case the limit value becomes maximum 0.4
V.
Adjust the engine speed by gradually decreasing
it until the value displayed on the ammeter is 30
A. Take a reading of the value displayed on the
voltmeter at this time.11.If the value displayed on the voltmeter is above
the limit value, there is probably a malfunction in
the alternator output wire. Check the wiring
between the alternator "B" terminal and the
positive battery terminal (including fusible link).
If a terminal is not sufficiently tight or if the
harness has become discolored due to
overheating, repair and then test again.
12.After the test, run the engine at idle.
13.Turn off all lights and turn the ignition switch to the
"LOCK" (OFF) position.

This test determines whether the alternator outputs
normal current. For best results, use a charging sys-
tem tester. If not available, follow the steps below.
Battery posts, terminals and related acces-
sories contain lead and lead compounds.
WASH HANDS AFTER HANDLING.
1. Before the test, always be sure to check the
following.
Alternator installation
Battery (Refer to GROUP 54A, Chassis Electrical
Battery On-vehicle Service Battery Check
P.54A-5.)
NOTE: The battery to be used should be slightly
discharged. The load in a fully-charged battery
will be insufficient and the test may not be able to
be carried out correctly.
Alternator drive belt tension (Refer to GROUP 00,
General
Maintenance Service Drive Belts
(For Alternator, Power Steering Pump and Air
Conditioning) (Check) P.00-39.)
Fusible link
Abnormal noise from the alternator while the
engine is running.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF)
position.
3. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Never use clips to connect the wire. Loose
connections (for example, using clips) will
lead to a serious accident because of high
current.
4. Connect a clamp-type DC test ammeter with a
range of 0
120 A to the alternator "B" terminal
output wire.
5. Connect a voltmeter with a range of 0
20 V
between the alternator "B" terminal and ground.
(Connect the positive lead of the voltmeter to the
"B" terminal, and then connect the negative lead
of the voltmeter to ground.)
6. Connect the negative battery cable.
7. Connect an engine tachometer or diagnostic tool.
8. Leave the hood open.9. Check to be sure that the reading on the voltmeter
is equal to the battery positive voltage.
NOTE: If the voltage is 0 V, the cause is probably
an open circuit in the wire or fusible link between
the alternator "B" terminal and the battery positive
terminal or malfunctioning voltmeter.
10.After turning on the headlights, start the engine.
NOTE: Because the current from the battery will
soon drop after the engine is started, step 11
should be carried out as quickly as possible in
order to obtain the maximum current output value.
11.Immediately after setting the headlights to high
beam and turning the heater blower switch to the
highest position, increase the engine speed to
2,500 r/min and read the maximum current output
value displayed on the ammeter.
Limit value: 70 % of nominal current output
NOTE: For the nominal current output, refer to the
Alternator Specifications.
NOTE: The current output value will depend on
the electrical load and the temperature of the
alternator body.
NOTE: If the electrical load is small while testing,
the specified level of current may not be output
even though the alternator is normal. In such
cases, increase the electrical load by leaving the
headlights turned on for some time to discharge
the battery or by using the lighting system in
another vehicle, and then test again.
NOTE: The specified level of current also may not
be output if the temperature of the alternator body
or the ambient temperature is too high. In such
cases, cool the alternator and then test again.
12.The reading on the ammeter should be above the
limit value. If the reading is below the limit value
and the alternator output wire is normal, remove
the alternator from the engine and check the
alternator.
13.Run the engine at idle speed after the test.
14.Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF)
position.
15.Disconnect the engine tachometer or diagnostic
tool.
16.Disconnect the negative battery cable.
17.Disconnect the ammeter and voltmeter .
18.Connect the negative battery cable.
19.Run the engine for 10 minutes at an idle.

11.Increase the engine speed to 2,500 r/min.
12.Read the value displayed on the voltmeter when
the current output by the alternator becomes 10 A
or less.
13.If the voltage reading conforms to the value in the
voltage regulation table, then the voltage regulator
is operating normally.
If the voltage is outside the standard value, there
is a malfunction of the voltage regulator or the
alternator (Refer to the following table).14.After the test, lower the engine speed to idle.
15.Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF)
position.
16.Disconnect the engine tachometer or diagnostic
tool .
17.Disconnect the negative battery cable.
18.Disconnect the ammeter and voltmeter.

WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHER
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONM1511000100558
WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHER
OPERATION
.
WINDSHIELD LOW-SPEED (AND
HIGH-SPEED) WIPER OPERATION
If the windshield low-speed wiper switch is turned
to the ON position with the ignition switch at the
"ACC" or "ON" position, the column switch sends
a low-speed wiper ON and high-speed wiper OFF
signals to the front-ECU. This turns the wiper sig-
nal on and the wiper speed control relay off
(low-speed), causing the wipers to operate at
low-speed.
If the windshield high-speed wiper switch is
turned to the ON position, the column switch
sends a low-speed wiper OFF and high-speed
wiper ON signals to the front-ECU. This turns
both the wiper signal and the wiper speed control
relay on (high-speed), causing the wipers to
operate at high-speed.
NOTE: The windshield wiper speed is adjustable
with the built-in wiper speed control relay.
High-speed operations take place when the wiper
speed control relay is set to "ON" and low-speed
operations take place when the wiper speed control
relay is set to "OFF".
.
WINDSHIELD INTERMITTENT WIPER
OPERATION
The ETACS-ECU calculates the wiper operation
interval according to the voltage signal sent from the
column switch. Then the ETACS-ECU sends a signal
to the front-ECU. The front-ECU determines the
wiper operation interval and turns on the wiper relay
signal relay. This causes the wiper auto stop relay to
turn on. Then the wiper auto stop relay will turn off
after the wipers reach the park position. This causes
the wiper signal relay and then the wipers to turn off.
If the wiper signal relay remains off for the wiper
operation interval, the relay turns on again, causing
the wipers to operate in intermittent mode.
.
WINDSHIELD MIST WIPER OPERATION
If the windshield mist wiper switch is turned to the
ON position with the ignition switch at the "ACC"
or "ON" position, the mist wiper high-speed oper-
ation signal is sent to the front-ECU. This signal
turns on the wiper speed control relay, causing
the wipers to work at high-speed while the mist
switch is on.
While the windshield mist wiper switch remains
turned on when the intermittent mode is still work-
ing, the wipers work as the mist wiper. However,
the wipers return to the intermittent mode again
when the switch is changed back to "INT" posi-
tion.
To prevent the windshield mist wiper from operat-
ing when the windshield wiper switch is turned
OFF, the windshield mist wiper does not work for
0.5 second after the windshield intermittent wiper
switch, the windshield low-speed wiper switch
and the windshield high-speed wiper switch are
turned OFF.
.
WINDSHIELD WASHER OPERATION
If the windshield washer switch is turned to the
ON position with the ignition switch at "ACC" or
"ON" position, the windshield washer ON signal is
sent to the front-ECU. After 0.3 second, the wind-
shield wiper signal turns on. After the windshield
washer switch signal turns off, the windshield
wiper signal turns off in three seconds.
If the windshield washer switch is turned on while
the windshield wiper is at intermittent mode, and
the windshield washer switch is turned OFF
within 0.2 second, the wiper works only once to
perform mist operation. When the windshield
washer switch is turned on for more than 0.2 sec-
ond, the wiper performs the same movement as
normal condition from the time when 0.2 second
has elapsed, and then returns to intermittent
operation.
WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHER DIAGNOSISM1511000700389
The windshield wiper and washer are controlled by
the Simplified Wiring System (SWS). For trouble-
shooting, refer to GROUP 54B, SWS Diagnosis
P.54B-10.NOTE: Even when the ETACS-ECU has failed, the
windshield wiper can work at low speed as fail-safe
mode. (Normally, the windshield wiper operates
when the ignition switch is at the "ACC" position. But,
if it enters the fail-safe mode, the wiper can operate
only when the ignition switch is at the "ON" position.)
