3	INSPECT ACTIVE AIR SHUTTER CONNECTOR CONDITION • Switch the ignition off. • Disconnect the active air shutter connector. • Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). • Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the connector and/or terminals, then go to Step 11.
3		No	Go to the next step.
4	INSPECT ACTIVE AIR SHUTTER POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND OR OPEN CIRCUIT • Verify that the active air shutter connector is disconnected. • Switch the ignition ON (engine off). Note • Another DTC may be stored by the PCM detecting an open circuit. • Measure the voltage at the active air shutter terminal A (wiring harness-side). • Is the voltage B+?	Yes	Go to the next step.
4		No	Inspect the ENGINE3 15 A fuse. • If the fuse is blown: ― Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between ENGINE3 15 A fuse and active air shutter terminal A. If there is a common connector: • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground. • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part. If there is no common connector: • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground. • Replace the fuse. • If the fuse is damaged: ― Replace the fuse. • If the fuse is normal: ― Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between main relay terminal D and active air shutter terminal A. If there is a common connector: • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit. • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part. If there is no common connector: • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit. Go to Step 11.
5	INSPECT ACTIVE AIR SHUTTER GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT • Verify that the active air shutter connector is disconnected. • Switch the ignition off. • Inspect for continuity between active air shutter terminal D (wiring harness-side) and body ground. • Is there continuity?	Yes	Go to the next step.
5		No	Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between active air shutter terminal D and body ground. If there is a common connector: • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit. • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part. If there is no common connector: • Inspect for the following: ― Open circuit between active air shutter and body ground ― Loose or lifting ground point • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part. Go to Step 11.
