Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2025 Repair Manual: Check For Intermittent Problems
CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
HINT:
A momentary interruption (open circuit) in the connectors and/or wire harness between the sensors and ECUs can be detected using the Data List function of the Techstream.
(a) Turn the engine switch off.
(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the engine switch on (IG).
(d) Turn the Techstream on.
(e) Follow the directions on the Techstream to display the Data List and select areas where momentary interruption should be monitored.
HINT:
- A momentary interruption (open circuit) cannot be detected for 3 seconds after the engine switch is turned on (IG) (initial check).
- If Under intermittent remains displayed for one of the items on the Techstream, check for continuity between the ECU and the item for which Under intermittent is displayed.
- If a momentary interruption occurs and Under intermittent is displayed on the Techstream, Under intermittent will remain displayed on the Techstream for 1 second after the circuit returns to normal.

(f) Select the line graph display.
(g) Using the line graph, check whether the status is "Under intermittent" or "Normal".
OK:
Normal is displayed.
HINT:
If the display changes, this indicates that there has been a momentary interruption (open circuit) in the connector and/or wire harness. In this case, repair or replace the connectors and/or wire harnesses as one of them is faulty.
(h) While observing the screen, gently jiggle the connector or wire harness between the ECU and each sensors, or between ECUs.
OK:
Normal is displayed.
HINT:
-
If a momentary interruption occurs and Under intermittent is displayed on the Techstream, Under intermittent will remain displayed on the Techstream for 1 second after the circuit returns to normal.
- If the display changes, this indicates that there has been a momentary interruption (open circuit) in the connector and/or wire harness. In this case, repair or replace the connectors and/or wire harnesses as one of them is faulty.
