Test Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Lexus ES 300 and 2002 Lexus ES 300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Disconnect the anti-theft warning ECU assembly connector. Measure the voltage between terminal SH (T6-24) of the anti-theft warning ECU assembly connector and body ground. See Fig 1. If the voltage is 10-14 volts, go to the next step. If the voltage is not 10-14 volts, repair or replace the harness and connector as necessary.
  2. Connect the positive (+) lead to terminal No. 1 of the anti-theft horn connector and the negative (-) lead to ground. See Fig 2. If the anti-theft horn blows, go to the next step. If the anti-theft horn does not blow, replace the security horn assembly.
  3. Check the continuity between terminal SH- (T6-25) of the anti-theft ECU connector and terminal No. 1 of the security horn connector. See Fig 2 and Fig 3 . If continuity exists, check and replace the anti-theft warning ECU assembly. If continuity does not exist, repair or replace the harness and connector as necessary.
