|
|
|
|
STEP 4. Measure the voltage at the ETACS-ECU connector.
|
|
(1)Disconnect the C-309 ETACS-ECU connector.
|

|
(2)Measure the voltage between the C-309 harness side connector terminal No. 1 and the body

Q.
Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage)?
Go to Step 6.
Go to Step 5.
|
|
STEP 5. Wiring harness check between the fusible link (34) and the
C-309 ETACS-ECU connector terminal No. 1.
|
|
- Open circuit check for ETACS-ECU power supply wire
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
Go to Step 11.
|
|
|
|
Repair the wiring harness.
|
|
|
|
STEP 6. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the ETACS.
|

|
caution |
To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"
(OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
|
(1)Connect scan tool MB991958. Refer to "How to connect the scan tool ." (2)Erase the DTC. (3)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position. (4)Check if the DTC is set. (5)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q.
Is the DTC set?
Diagnose the ETACS (Refer to GROUP 54A, ETACS, Diagnosis ).
Then go to Step 11.
Check the input signal of ETACS-ECU ignition switch (IG1) (Refer to GROUP 54A,
ETACS, Symptom procedures ). Then go to step 7.
|
|
STEP 7. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus line.
|

|
caution |
To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"
(OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
|
(1)Connect scan tool MB991958. Refer to "How to connect the scan tool ." (2)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position. (3)Diagnose the CAN bus line. (4)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q.
Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?
Go to Step 8.
Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C, Diagnosis ).
|
|
STEP 8. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
|
|
Check again if the DTC is set.
|
|
(2)Turn the ignition switch to "ON" position.
|
|
(3)Check if the DTC is set.
|
|
(4)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
|
|
Go to Step 9.
|
|
|
|
There is an intermittent malfunction such as poor engaged connector(s) or open
circuit (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
|
|
|
|
STEP 9. Check the harness for open circuit between SRS-ECU connector
C-30 (terminal No.61 and 62) and the ETACS-ECU connector C-313 (terminal No.4 and 2).
|
|
(1)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
|

|
(2)While pushing the part "A" indicated in the figure of the harness side connector, turn
the lock lever to the direction of the arrow to release the lock lever, and disconnect the C-30
SRS-ECU connector. (3)Disconnect the ETACS-ECU connector C-313.
|

|
(4)Check for continuity between the following terminals. It should be less than 2 ohms. <Fuse No.12>
- SRS-ECU connector C-30 (terminal No.62) and the ETACS-ECU connector C-313 (terminal No.2)
<Fuse No.18>
- SRS-ECU connector C-30 (terminal No.61) and the ETACS-ECU connector C-313 (terminal No.4)
Q.
Does continuity exist?
Go to Step 10.
Repair the harness wire between SRS-ECU connector C-30 and the ETACS-ECU connector
C-313.
|
|
STEP 10. Measure the voltage at the C-30 SRS-ECU connector.
|
|
(1)Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
|

|
(2)While pushing the part "A" indicated in the figure of the harness side connector, turn
the lock lever to the direction of the arrow to release the lock lever, and disconnect the C-30
SRS-ECU connector. (3)Connect the negative battery terminal. (4)Ignition switch: ON
|

|
(5)Take the measurements below at the C-30 harness side connector.
- Voltage between terminal No. 61/62 and body
ground
OK: 9 V or more
Q.
Is the measured voltage within the specified range?
Go to Step 11.
Replace the ETACS-ECU (Refer to GROUP 54A, ETACS-ECU ).
|
|
STEP 11. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
|
|
Check again if the DTC is set.
|
|
(2)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
|
|
(3)Check if the DTC is set.
|
|
(4)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
|
|
Replace the SRS-ECU (Refer to ).
|
|
|
|
There is an intermittent malfunction such as poor engaged connector(s) or open
circuit (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
