Inspection Procedure

  1. CHECK MIL 
    1. Check that the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) lights up when turning the power switch on (IG).

      OK: 

      MIL lights up 

    OK: SYSTEM IS OK 

    NG: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK COMMUNICATION BETWEEN INTELLIGENT TESTER AND ECM 
    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the power switch on (IG) and tester on.
    3. Check the communication between the tester and hybrid vehicle control ECU.

      Result 

      RESULT REFERENCE

      Result Proceed to
      Communication is possible A
      Communication is not possible B

    A:  GO TO MIL CIRCUIT 

    B: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK MIL (THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR) 
    1. Disconnect the C5 throttle body connector.
    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).
    3. Check the MIL.
