Component Inspection

■ Check rain sensor 

  1. Connect scantool to Data Link Connector (DLC).
  2. Ignition "ON" & engine "OFF" & wiper "AUTO".
  3. Measure waveform between terminal "4" of rain sensor and chassis ground while sprinkling water on front window glass.

    Specification:  Duty cycle > 66.7% ± 3%

  4. Is the measured waveform within specifications?

    ■ Duty cycle value will be fixed at 23.8%±3%, if fault 1 is detected.

    YES 

    • Check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.

    NO 

    • Substitute with a known-good rain sensor and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace rain sensor and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
