Inspection Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Toyota Prius. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- CHECK HEADLIGHT BEAM LEVEL CONTROL ECU
- Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.
Standard voltage
TESTER CONNECTION - SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Condition Specified Condition H12-13 (RH1) - H12-22 (RH3) Power switch ON (IG) 10 to 14 V H12-14 (LH1) - H12-23 (LH3) H12-3 (RH2) - H12-22 (RH3) With power switch ON (IG) and headlight on, change the vehicle height and maintain the height for more than 2 seconds 10 to 12.6 V
(Approx. 10 seconds)H12-4 (LH2) - H12-23 (LH3)
NG : PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
OK : GO TO NEXT STEP
- Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.
- CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ECU - ACTUATOR)
- Disconnect the H2*1 or H1*1 actuator connector.
HINT:
*1: for LH side
*2: for RH side
- Disconnect the H12 ECU connector.
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connector.
Standard resistance:
for LH side
