Control Unit Input Test

  1. Before testing the driving position memory control functions, troubleshoot the multiplex control system. Perform the multiplex mode test first.

    Multiplex Control Unit, Passenger's: 

  2. Remove the passenger's multiplex control unit from the passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box, and disconnect its connector.
  3. Inspect all connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
    • If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
    • If the terminals look OK, go to step 4.

  4. With the connectors still disconnected, make these input tests at the connectors.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 5.

  5. Reconnect the passenger's multiplex control unit to the passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box, and make these input tests at the appropriate connectors on the passenger's under-dash fuse/relay box.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 6.

    Multiplex control Unit, Driver's: 

  6. Remove the driver's unit from the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box, and disconnect its connector.
  7. Inspect all connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
    • If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
    • If the terminals look OK, go to step 8.

  8. With the driver's multiplex control unit still disconnected, make these input tests at the connectors.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 9.

  9. Reconnect the driver's multiplex control unit to the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box, and make these input tests at the appropriate connectors on the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 10.

  10. If all the input tests prove OK, one of the control units must be faulty, Substitute a known-good control unit for the one that is most likely at fault, then recheck the system. If the system works properly, the original control unit is faulty; replace it. If there is still a malfunction, substitute a known-good control unit for the next most likely unit to be at fault, and recheck. If the system works properly, the original unit is faulty; replace it.
