Wire Harness Repair Manual (RM1022E)
If the circuit has diodes, reverse the two leads and check
again.
When touching the negative (±) lead to the diode positive
(+) side and the positive (+) lead to the negative (±) side,
there should be continuity. When touching the two leads in
reverse, there should be no continuity.
HINT: Specifications may vary depending on the type of
tester, so refer to the tester's instruction manual before
performing the inspection.
Check LED (Light Emitting Diode) in the same manner as
that for diodes.
HINT:

Use a tester with a power source of 3V or greater to
overcome the circuit resistance.

If a suitable tester is not available, apply battery
voltage and check that the LED lights up.
(c)Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10kW/V
minimum) for troubleshooting of the electrical circuit.
3. Bulb Check
(a)Remove the bulb.
(b)There should be continuity between the respective
terminals of the bulb together with a certain amount
of resistance.
(c)Apply the two leads of the ohmmeter to each of the
terminals.
(d)Apply battery voltage and check that the bulb light up.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
These are the maintenance and inspection items
which are considered to be the owner's responsibility,
They can be performed by the owner or he
can have then done at a service shop. These items
include those which should be checked on a daily ba-
sis, those which, in most cases, do not require
(special) tools and those which are considered to be
reasonable for the owner to perform.
Items and procedures for general maintenance are as
follows:
OUTSIDE VEHICLE
1. TIRES
(a) Check the pressure with a gauge. Adjust
if necessary.
(b) Check for cuts, damage or excessive wear.
2. WHEEL NUTS
When checking the tires, check the nuts for looseness
or for missing nuts. If necessary,
tighten them.
3. TIRE ROTATION
It is recommended that tires be rotated every
7,500 miles (12,000 km).
4. WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
Check for wear or cracks whenever they do not wipe
clean. Replace if necessary.
5. FLUID LEAKS
(a) Check underneath for leaking fuel, oil, water or
other fluid.
(b) If you smell gasoline fumes or notice any leak,
have the cause found and corrected.
6. DOORS AND ENGINE HOOD
(a) Check that all doors including the trunk lid and
back door operate smoothly, and that all
latches lock securely.
(b) Check that the engine hood secondary latch se-
cures the hood from opening when the prima-
ry latch is released.
INSIDE VEHICLE
7. LIGHTS
(a) Check that the headlights, stop lights, taillights,
turn signal lights, and other
lights are all working.
(b) Check the headlight aiming.8. WARNING LIGHTS AND BUZZERS
Check that all warning lights and buzzers func-
tion properly.
9. HORN
Check that it is working.
10. WINDSHIELD GLASS
Check for scratches, pits or abrasions.
11. WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHER
(a) Check operation of the wipers and washer.
(b) Check that the wipers do not streak.
12. WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER
Check that air comes out from the defroster out-
let when operating the heater or air conditioner
at defroster mode.
13. REAR VIEW MIRROR
Check that it is mounted securely.
14. SUN VISORS
Check that they move freely and are mounted
securely.
15. STEERING WHEEL
Check that it has the specified freeplay. Be alert
for changes in steering condition, such as hard
steering, excessive freeplay or strange noise.
16. SEATS
(a) Check that all front seat controls such as
seat adjusters, seatback recliner, etc.
operate smoothly.
(b) Check that a11 latches lock securely in
any position.
(c) Check that the locks hold securely in any
latched position.
(d) Check that the head restraints move up
and down smoothly and that the locks
hold securely in any latched position.
(e) For folding±down rear seat backs, check
that the latches lock securely.
17. SEAT BELTS
(a) Check that the seat belt system such as
buckles, retractors and anchors operate
properly and smoothly.
(b) Check that the belt webbing is not cut,
frayed, worn or damaged.
