How To Proceed With Troubleshooting
- Vehicle brought into a workshop
- Diagnostic questioning and symptom confirmation (SEE CUSTOMER PROBLEM ANALYSIS CHECK
)
Ask the customer about symptoms and confirm malfunctions. Fill out the Customer Problem Analysis check sheet.
Pressing PWR switch does not turn on system (SEE PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE )
Other symptoms (go to step 3)
- Check the diagnostic trouble codes (SEE SYSTEM CHECK MODE (DTC CHECK)
)
HINT:
- If the audio system is equipped with a multi-display, check DTCs in the LEXUS NAVIGATION SYSTEM section (SEE PRECAUTION ).
- If the system cannot enter the diagnosis mode, inspect each AVC-LAN communication signal and repair or replace problem parts (SEE AVC-LAN CIRCUIT (STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER ASSY - STEREO COMPONENT TUNER) - AVC-LAN CIRCUIT (RADIO RECEIVER ASSY - STEREO COMPONENT TUNER) ).
- Even if the malfunction symptom is not confirmed, check the diagnostic trouble codes. This is because the system stores past diagnostic trouble codes.
A code is output (go to step 4)
A code is not output (go to step 5 )
- (SEE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART
)
Find the output code on the diagnostic trouble code chart.
Output the diagnostic trouble code (go to step 7 )
- (SEE PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
)
Find the applicable symptom code in the problem symptoms table.
HINT:
If the symptom does not recur and no code is output, perform the symptom reproduction method (SEE HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING ).
There is an applicable symptom code in the table (go to step 7 )
There is no applicable symptom code in the table (go to step 6)
- Check the ECU terminal arrangement based on the malfunction symptom (SEE TERMINALS OF ECU )
- Check the circuit
Adjust, repair or replace as necessary.
- Recheck the diagnostic trouble code (SEE SYSTEM CHECK MODE (DTC CLEAR/RECHECK)
)
HINT:
After deleting the DTC, recheck the diagnostic trouble code.
- Perform confirmation test
