DESCRIPTION
An operation request signal is sent to the air conditioning amplifier assembly via LIN communication when the rear window defogger switch (air conditioning control assembly) is operated. When the air conditioning amplifier assembly receives the signal, it sends an operation request signal via CAN communication to the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU).When the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) receives the signal, it sends an operation request signal via CPXI communication to the power distribution box assembly. After the operation request signal is received by the power distribution box assembly it outputs an operation signal and operates the window defogger.

PROCEDURE
1. | READ VALUE USING GTS (REAR DEFOGGER INPUT SIGNAL) |
(a) Using the GTS, read the Data List.
Body Electrical > Power Distribution Box > Data List Tester Display | Measurement Item | Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
---|---|---|---|---|
Rear Defogger Input Signal | Window defogger switch signal input condition | ON or OFF | ON: Rear window defogger switch is on OFF: Rear window defogger switch is off | - |
Tester Display |
---|
Rear Defogger Input Signal |
OK:
The Data List value displays "ON" with the rear window defogger switch set to ON.
NG | GO TO STEP 5 |
|
2. | READ VALUE USING GTS (REAR DEFOGGER OUTPUT SIGNAL) |
(a) Using the GTS, read the Data List.
Body Electrical > Power Distribution Box > Data List Tester Display | Measurement Item | Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
---|---|---|---|---|
Rear Defogger Output Signal | Window defogger output condition | ON or OFF | ON: Window defogger operates OFF: Window defogger does not operate | - |
Tester Display |
---|
Rear Defogger Output Signal |
OK:
When the rear window defogger switch is ON, the data monitor standard value is "ON".
NG | REPLACE POWER DISTRIBUTION BOX ASSEMBLY |
|
3. | CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER DISTRIBUTION BOX ASSEMBLY - REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER WIRE [BACK DOOR GLASS]) |
(a) Disconnect the 4E power distribution box assembly connector.
(b) Disconnect the X1 rear window defogger wire (back door glass) connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
4E-43 - X1-1 (B) | Always | Below 1 Ω |
4E-43 or X1-1 (B) - Body ground | Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
NG | REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR |
|
4. | CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER WIRE [BACK DOOR GLASS] - BODY GROUND) |
(a) Disconnect the Y6 rear window defogger wire (back door glass) connector.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
Y6-1 (E) - Body ground | Always | Below 1 Ω |
OK | REPAIR REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER WIRE (BACK DOOR GLASS) |
NG | REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR |
5. | CHECK AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM |
(a) Check the air conditioning system.

HINT:
Both the window defogger system operation signal and air conditioning system operation signal are transmitted to the air conditioning amplifier assembly via the same communication line.
OK:
The air conditioning system operates normally.
NG | GO TO AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM |
|
6. | CHECK AIR CONDITIONING CONTROL ASSEMBLY |
(a) Check that the defogger indicator illuminates when the window defogger switch is on.
OK:
Defogger indicator illuminates.
NG | REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING CONTROL ASSEMBLY |
|
7. | PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS |
(a) Using the GTS, perform the Active Test.
Body Electrical > Air Conditioner > Active Test Tester Display | Measurement Item | Control Range | Diagnostic Note |
---|---|---|---|
Rear Defogger Relay | Rear window defogger wire (Back door glass) | OFF or ON | - |
Tester Display |
---|
Rear Defogger Relay |
OK:
Rear window defogger wire (back door glass) warms up.
OK | REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING CONTROL ASSEMBLY |
NG | REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY |
