Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check interme-
diate connector C-129 <tail lamp LH, licence plate 
lamp or tail lamp indicator>, C-113 <tail lamp RH> or 
F-12 <licence plate lamp>, joint connector C-05 <tail 
lamp RH>, junction block connector C-210 <tail lamp 
LH, licence plate lamp or tail lamp indicator>, C-214 
<tail lamp indicator> or C-217 <tail lamp LH or 
licence plate lamp> and repair if necessary.

• Check the output lines for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 7.

NO : 

Repair the wiring harness.

Step 7. Retest the system.
Check that the tail lamps, the position lamps and the 
licence plate lamps illuminate normally.

Q: Is the check result normal?

The all lamps illuminate normally : 

The trouble can 

be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to
