Diagnosis Procedure

  1. CHECK GROUND CONNECTIONS
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Loosen and retighten ground screws on the body.

      Refer to "GROUND INSPECTION ".

      • <=: Vehicle front
      • Body ground (1)

      OK or NG 

      OK: GO TO 2.

      NG: Repair or replace ground connections.
