Door Multiplex Control Unit Input Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Honda Accord, 2011 Honda Accord, 2010 Honda Accord, 2009 Honda Accord, and 2008 Honda Accord. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: If you are troubleshooting multiple DTCs, be sure to follow the instructions in B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A (see TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A ).
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  2. Open and close the driver's door, then remove the power window master switch.
  3. Disconnect the 37P connector (A) from the power window master switch (B).
    NOTE: The illustration shows 4-door model.

  4. Inspect the 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 5.
  5. Reconnect the connector to the power window master switch, and do the following input tests:
    • 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.
