Lexus ES: Initialization Switch Error (for Test Diagnosis) (C2198)
DESCRIPTION
The switch circuit inside the combination meter assembly turns on and off according to the steering pad switch assembly operation.
During test mode, the tire pressure warning light blinks at 0.125 second intervals when "Set Pressure" is selected on the multi-information display, and illuminates when the "OK" switch (steering pad switch assembly) is pressed.

(a) Disconnect the N8 tire pressure warning ECU and receiver connector.
(b) Disconnect the G16 and G17 combination meter assembly connectors.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
| Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
|---|---|---|
| N8-3 (CLSW) - G16-6 (INT) | Always | Below 1 Ω |
| N8-3 (CLSW) or G16-6 (INT) - Body ground | Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
| G17-31 (ES) - Body ground | Always | Below 1 Ω |
| NG | | REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR |
|
| 5. | CHECK TERMINAL VOLTAGE (INT) |
(a) Connect the N8 tire pressure warning ECU and receiver connector.
(b) Disconnect the G16 combination meter assembly connector.
(c) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage:
| Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
|---|---|---|
| G16-6 (INT) - Body ground | Engine switch on (IG) | 8 to 15 V |
| OK | | GO TO METER / GAUGE SYSTEM |
| NG | | REPLACE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING ECU AND RECEIVER |
