Toyota Venza: Rear Window Defogger System does not Operate

Toyota Venza Service Manual / Window / Glass / Window Defogger System / Rear Window Defogger System does not Operate

DESCRIPTION

When the rear window defogger switch on the air conditioning control assembly is pressed, the operation signal is transmitted to the air conditioning amplifier assembly through the LIN communication line. When the air conditioning amplifier assembly receives the signal, it turns on the RR DEF relay to operate the rear window defogger.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

PROCEDURE

1.	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 through the same LIN communication line.

Result

Result	Proceed to
The air conditioning system operates normally.	A
The air conditioning system does not operate normally.	B

GO TO AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM

2.	PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(d) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Air Conditioner / Active Test.

(e) Perform the Active Test according to the display on the Techstream.

3 - 4	Battery voltage applied between terminals 1 and 2	10 kΩ or higher
3 - 4	Battery voltage not applied between terminals 1 and 2	Below 1 Ω
3 - 5	Battery voltage applied between terminals 1 and 2	Below 1 Ω
3 - 5	Battery voltage not applied between terminals 1 and 2	10 kΩ or higher

REPLACE RR DEF RELAY

4.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DEF RELAY POWER SOURCE)

(a) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
Engine room relay block RR DEF relay terminal 1 - Body ground	Ignition switch off	Below 1 V
Engine room relay block RR DEF relay terminal 1 - Body ground	Ignition switch ON	11 to 14 V
