Data List / Active Test
DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST
NOTICE:
In
the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are
reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when
deciding whether a part is faulty or not.
HINT:
Using
the Techstream to read the Data List allows the values or states of
switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing
any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because
intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or
wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in
troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.
DATA LIST
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the power switch on (IG).
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Grille Shutter / Data List.

accurately identified. Preconceptions should be discarded in order to
make an accurate judgment. To clearly understand what the problem
symptoms are, it is extremely important to ask the customer about the
problem and the conditions at the time the malfunction occurred.
- Gather as much information as possible for reference. Past problems that seem unrelated may also help in some cases.
- The following 5 items are important points for problem analysis:
What |
Vehicle model, system name |
When |
Date, time, occurrence frequency |
Where |
Road conditions |
Under what conditions? |
Driving conditions, weather conditions |
How did it happen? |

System Description
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
GRILLE SHUTTER SYSTEM
(a) General description
The
swing grille actuator assembly receives signals from the ECM, hybrid
vehicle control ECU assembly and air conditioning amplifier assembly via
CAN communication. Based on these signals, the swing grille actuator
assembly operates the radiator shutter sub-assembly.
If
a malfunction occurs in the grille shutter system, a warning will be
displayed on the multi-information display and grille shutter system
operation will be disabled.
(b) Control List
Control | Description |
Closing Operation Control | The
grille shutter closes when certain conditions related to the vehicle
speed, engine coolant temperature, inverter coolant temperature, ambient
temperature and refrigerant pressure are met. |
Opening Operation Control | The
grille shutter opens when certain conditions related to the vehicle
speed, engine coolant temperature, inverter coolant temperature, ambient
temperature and refrigerant pressure are met. |
Power Switch Off-linked Opening Operation Control |
Opens
the grille shutter when the power switch is turned off in order to
prevent the grille shutter from becoming stuck closed while the vehicle
is stopped. |
Winter Control Mode |
Stops
the grille shutter at a position other than the fully closed position
and suspends grille shutter operation in order to prevent it from
becoming stuck closed when the ambient temperature is 5°C (41°F) or
lower. Winter control mode is canceled when the ambient temperature
becomes 10°C (50°F) or higher. |
