Heat the component that is the likely cause of the malfunction
with a hair dryer or similar object. Check to see if the malfunction
occurs.
NOTICE:

Do not heat to more than 60 °C (140 °F). (Temperature
is limited not to damage the components.)
(2)
Do not apply heat directly to parts in the ECU.
3 WATER SPRINKLING METHOD:
Sprinkle water onto the vehicle and check to see if the malfunc-
tion occurs.

(1) Never sprinkle water directly into the engine compart-
ment, but indirectly change the temperature and hu-
midity by applying water spray onto the radiator front
surface.
(2) Never apply water directly onto the electronic compo-
nents.
HINT:
If a vehicle is subject to water leakage, the leaked water may
contaminate the ECU. When testing a vehicle with a water leak-
age problem, special caution must be taken.

Turn on all electrical loads including the heater blower, head
lights, rear window defogger, etc. and check to see if the mal-
