Console Accessory Power Socket Test/Replacement
NOTE: If the front and console accessory power socket do not work, check the No. 18 (7.5 A) fuse in the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box and ground
(G403, G601) first.
1. Remove the center console See: Body and Frame/Interior Moulding / Trim/Console/Service and Repair/Removal and Replacement/Center
Console Removal/Installation.
2. Disconnect the 2P connector (A) from the console accessory power socket (B).
3. Inspect the connector terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
-
If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary and recheck the system.
-
If the terminals look OK, go to step 4.
4. Turn the ignition switch to ACCESSORY (I), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ACC mode:
-
With keyless access system, go to step 5.
-
Without keyless access system, go to step 6.
5. Measure the voltage between console accessory power socket relay terminal No. 3 and body ground. There should be less than 0.2 V.
-
If there is less than 0.2 V, go to step 7.
-
If there is more than 0.2 V, check for:
-
An open or high resistance in the ground wire between console accessory power socket relay terminal No. 3 and ground (G403).
-
Poor ground (G403).
6. Measure the voltage between driver's under-dash fuse/relay box connector D (16P) terminal No. 14 and body ground. There should be less than
0.2 V.
-
If there is less than 0.2 V, go to step 7.
-
If there is more than 0.2 V, check for:
-
A faulty accessory relay in the driver under-dash fuse/relay box.
-
A blown No. 12 (7.5 A) fuse in the auxiliary under-hood fuse/relay box.
-
An open or high resistance in the ground wire between driver's under-dash fuse/relay box connector D (16P) terminal No. 14 and ground
(G601).
-
Poor ground (G601).
7. Measure the voltage between console accessory power socket 2P connector terminal No. 1 and body ground. There should be battery voltage.
