1.CHECK “L” TERMINAL CONNECTION

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Check if “L” terminal is clean and tight.

Is the inspection result normal?
YES>>GO TO 2.
NO>>Repair “L” terminal connection. Confirm repair by performing complete Starting/Charging system test. Refer to Technical Service Bulletin.
2.CHECK “L” TERMINAL CIRCUIT (OPEN)

1. Disconnect alternator connector.
2. Apply ground to alternator harness connector terminal.
3. Check condition of the charge warning lamp with the ignition switch in the ON position.

   Alternator harness connector | Terminal | Ground | Condition
   Ignition switch position | Charge warning lamp
   E254 | 2 | ON | Illuminate

Does it illuminate?
YES>>“L” terminal circuit is normal. Refer to Work Flow.
NO>>GO TO 3.
3.CHECK HARNESS CONTINUITY (OPEN CIRCUIT)

1. Disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal.
2. Disconnect the combination meter connector.
3. Check continuity between alternator harness connector and combination meter harness connector.

   Alternator harness connector | Combination meter harness connector | Continuity
   Connector No. | Terminal No. | Connector No. | Terminal No.
   E254 | 2 | M53 | 28 | Existed

Is the inspection result normal?
YES>>GO TO 4.
NO>>Repair the harness or connector.
4.CHECK HARNESS CONTINUITY (OPEN CIRCUIT)
Check continuity between combination meter harness connector and fuse block.

Combination meter harness connector | Fuse block | Continuity
Connector No. | Terminal No. | Connector No. | Terminal No.
M53 | 2 | M3 | 12C | Existed

Is the inspection result normal?
YES>>GO TO 5.
NO>>Repair the harness.
5.CHECK POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT

1. Connect the battery cable to the negative terminal.
2. Check voltage between combination meter harness connector and ground.

   Terminals | Condition | Voltage (Approx.)
   (+) | (–)
   Combination meter harness connector | Terminal
   M53 | 2 | Ground | When the ignition switch is in ON position | Battery voltage

Is the inspection result normal?
YES>>Replace combination meter.
NO>>Inspect the power supply circuit. Refer to Wiring Diagram - IGNITION POWER SUPPLY -.
