Load test the battery with the GR8 Battery Diagnostic Station. A. Select Diagnostic from the Main Menu. Figure 1. NOTE Repairs to correct a battery fail condition are NOT covered by this TSIB. GR8 Battery Diagnostic Station must be used to test battery. Do NOT use Battery Test function on the Main Menu. Detailed information on battery testing can be found in the Battery Testing and Charging Best Practices Quick Training Guide – QL614C. Did the battery pass the GR8 Diagnostic test? · YES – Proceed to step 2. · NO – STOP! Battery Test fail condition MUST be corrected before continuing with this bulletin. © 2016 Lexus, a division of Toyota Motor Sales, USA L-SB-0035-16 July 8, 2016 Page 5 of 8 Intermittent Battery Discharge Charging System Test 2. Start the engine and maintain an engine speed Figure 3. of 2,000 RPM with all accessories OFF. A. Verify that the voltage and amperage are within specification: Standard amperage: 10 A or less** Standard voltage: 13.2 to 14.8 V ** Battery must be fully charged. B. With the engine running at 2,000 RPM, turn the high beam headlights ON and turn the heater blower switch to the ”HI” position. Verify that the voltage and amperage are within specification: Standard amperage: 30 A or more Standard voltage: 13.2 to 14.8 V Did the Charging System pass the Charging System Test? · YES – Proceed to step 3. · NO – STOP! Charging System fail condition must be corrected before continuing with this bulletin. NOTE Repairs to correct a Charging System Test fail condition are NOT covered by this TSIB. Detailed information on testing the charging system can be found in the Toyota Starting, Charging and Parasitic Draw Tests Quick Training Guide QT611B. © 2016 Lexus, a division of Toyota Motor Sales, USA L-SB-0035-16 July 8, 2016 Page 6 of 8 Intermittent Battery Discharge Parasitic Draw Test 3. Loosen the negative (–) battery cable so it will be easy to remove for the test. Figure 4. A. Lock the hood latch using a screwdriver and roll the driver’s window down. NOTE This closes the hood latch switch and enables the theft deterrent system in case it is the source of the parasitic draw. B. Turn the ignition ON and then OFF. C. Turn OFF all electrical loads, close and lock the doors, then wait for the ECUs to go into sleep mode. This may take anywhere from 10 minutes to 2 hours dependent upon which vehicle is being serviced and what equipment is installed in the vehicle. D. Attach the negative (–) lead of the ammeter to the negative (–) battery post and the positive lead of the ammeter to the negative (–) battery cable end. Figure 5. NOTE Place leads without disconnecting the battery cable. If the ammeter leads become disconnected from the battery post or battery cable during the test, reconnect the battery and restart the test from step B. If the ammeter leads become disconnected from the battery post or battery cable during the test refer to the applicable repair instructions on TIS for initialization procedures necessary when the battery terminal is disconnected/reconnected. Average milliamp setting should be used. Disregard Minimum and Maximum values for this test. © 2016 Lexus, a division of Toyota Motor Sales, USA L-SB-0035-16 July 8, 2016 Page 7 of 8 Intermittent Battery Discharge Parasitic Draw Test (Continued) E. Remove the negative (–) battery cable without breaking the circuit between the battery and vehicle, and record the meter reading. Figure 6. NOTE After completing the parasitic draw test remove the screwdriver from the hood latch and operate the hood release lever Verify the hood latch is in the open position before attempting to close the hood. Standard average parasitic draw: Less than 50 milliamps average (0.050 amp) Did the system (or vehicle) pass the Parasitic Draw Test? · YES – Proceed to step 4. · NO – Parasitic draw fail condition must be corrected before continuing with this bulletin. NOTE Repairs to correct a Parasitic Draw Test fail condition are NOT covered by this TSIB. Detailed information on testing the parasitic draw can be found in the Toyota Starting, Charging and Parasitic Draw Tests Quick Training Guide QT611B. © 2016 Lexus, a division of Toyota Motor Sales, USA L-SB-0035-16 July 8, 2016 Page 8 of 8 Intermittent Battery Discharge Network Gateway ECU 4.
