Inspection

Power Relay Inspection (Type A)Check the circuit between the terminals for continuity.
A: C/Fan Relay (Low)
B: C/Fan Relay (High)
C: Fan Relay
D: SSB2 (ACC) Relay
E: Rear Window Heater Relay
F: SSB4 (IG2) Relay
G: SSB3 (IG1) Relay
H: Starter Relay

  1. There should be continuity between terminals No. 30 and No. 87 when power and ground are connected to terminals No. 85 and No. 86.
  2. There should be no continuity between terminals No. 30 and No. 87 when power is disconnected.
  3. There should be continuity between terminals No. 30 and No. 87 when power and ground are connected to terminals No. 85 and No. 86.
  4. There should be continuity between terminals No. 30 and No. 87 when power is disconnected.
  5. There should be continuity between terminals No. 30, 87A and No. 87 when battery voltage and ground are applied to terminals No. 85 and No. 86.
  6. There should be no continuity between terminals No. 30, 87A and No. 87 when power is removed.
  7. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
  8. Push the 3 hooks on the relay box in the engine compartment in the direction of the arrow, and install the EMS assembly (A).
  9. Disconnect the connector and remove the EMS assembly (A).
  10. Make sure the fuse holders have no play and that the fuses are held securely.
  11. Is the rating of the fuse specified correctly for each circuit?
  12. Is any fuse blown? If a fuse must be replaced, always use a new fuse of the same rating. Always determine why the fuse blew and fully correct the problem before installing a new fuse.
Power Relay Inspection (Type B) Check continuity between the terminals. A: ESS Relay B: Wiper Relay C: HAC Relay. Power Relay Inspection (Type C) Check continuity between the terminals. A: PTC (GSL) / Fuel Heater Relay (DSL) B: Glow Plug Relay C: PTC3 Relay D: PTC2 Relay E: PTC1 Relay. EMS Box Replacement. Fuse Inspection. Multi Fuse. The Multi Fuse is designed to optimize the engine compartment package.
