WIRING DIAGRAM


INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- When "+B of GND short malfunction of communication bus" DTCs (B1214 and B1215) are detected at the same time as "communication stop" DTC B1272, repair the "+B or GND short malfunction of communication bus" DTCs first.
1.INSPECT FUSE (FR P/SEAT LH (LHD), FR P/SEAT RH (RHD), MPX-B) |
Remove the FR P/SEAT LH fuse from the main body ECU LH (cowl side J/B LH) (for LHD).
Remove the FR P/SEAT RH fuse from the main body ECU RH (cowl side J/B RH) (for RHD).
Remove the MPX-B fuse from the engine room J/B No. 1.
Measure the resistance of the fuses.
- Standard resistance:
- Below 1 Ω
2.CHECK WIRE HARNESS (POSITION CONTROL ECU AND SWITCH - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND) |
Disconnect the U6 and U7 ECU connectors (for LHD).
Disconnect the T6 and T7 ECU connectors (for RHD).
Measure the voltage and resistance of the wire harness side connector
- Standard voltage:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
*1SYSB (U7-8) - Body ground
*2SYSB (T7-8) - Body ground | Always | 10 to 14 V |
*1+B (U6-5) - Body ground
*2+B (T6-5) - Body ground | Always | 10 to 14 V |
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connection | Specified Condition |
*1GND (U6-1) - Body ground | Below 1 Ω |
*2GND (T6-1) - Body ground | Below 1 Ω |
| REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR |
|
|
3.CHECK RESISTANCE OF COMMUNICATION LINE |
Disconnect the U7, 2F and J55 ECU connectors (for LHD).
Disconnect the T7, L17 and P33 ECU connectors (for RHD).

Measure the resistance between the specified terminals on the wire harness side connectors.
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connection | Specified Condition |
*1MPX1 (U7-1) - 2F-5
*2MPX1 (T7-1) - MPX1 (L17-7) | Below 1 Ω |
*1MPX1 (U7-1) - MPX2 (J55-24)
*2MPX1 (T7-1) - MPX1 (P33-27) | Below 1 Ω |
