HEADLAMP — Headlamp Aiming Control — Trouble-diagnosis

EL-54flowchartUnverified

Source spells the second table heading 'Switch positon' (likely 'position') — captured verbatim per never-guess. Step B continuity table also shows pin ① always closed (switch common) regardless of position.

Trouble-diagnosis

1
Ⓐ POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT CHECK (For aiming switch) — Check if 12 volts exist between terminals ① and ⑥.
N.G.
N.G. → Check 10A fuse at fuse block. (Refer to "POWER SUPPLY ROUTING".)
O.K.
2
Ⓑ AIMING SWITCH CHECK — Check continuity between terminals at each switch position.
N.G.
N.G. → Replace aiming switch.
O.K.
3
Ⓒ GROUND CIRCUIT CHECK FOR AIMING MOTOR — Check continuity between terminals ⑥ and body ground. Continuity exists ... O.K.
N.G.
N.G. → Repair harness between aiming motor and body ground.
O.K.
4
Ⓓ POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT CHECK (For aiming motor unit) — Check if 12 volts exist between terminals ①, ②, ③, ④ and ⑥.
N.G.
N.G. → Check harness between aiming switch and aiming motor unit.
O.K.
