Diagnostic Item 37 Diagnose when the scan tool cannot receive the data sent by EV remote-ECU. <Vehicles with MITSUBISHI remote control>
 
 
cautionWhen servicing a CAN bus line, ground yourself by touching a metal object such as an unpainted water pipe. If you fail to do, a component connected to the CAN bus line may be broken.
 
 
FUNCTION
The diagnostic result demonstrates that "the scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) cannot receive the sent data from the EV remote-ECU" when the scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) checks the periodically sent data from each ECU and cannot receive the EV remote-ECU data only.
 
 
TROUBLE JUDGMENT CONDITIONS
Scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) judges the trouble when the periodically sent data from EV remote-ECU cannot be received.
 
 
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
  • Damaged harness wires and connectors
  • Power supply circuit malfunction of the EV remote-ECU
  • Malfunction of the EV remote-ECU
 
 
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
  • MB991223: Harness Set
  • MB992006: Extra Fine Probe
STEP 1. Connector check: joint connector (CAN5) and EV remote-ECU connector.
cautionThe strand end of the twist wire should be within 10 cm (4 inches) from the connector. For details refer to .
When checking the joint connector, ensure that its wiring harness side and its short pins are not damaged.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 2.
Repair the defective connector. Replace the joint connector as necessary.
 
STEP 2. Resistance measurement at joint connector (CAN5) and EV remote-ECU connector.
cautionA digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to .
cautionThe test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to .
(1) Disconnect joint connector (CAN5) and the EV remote-ECU connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(3)
cautionWhen measuring the resistance, disconnect the negative 12V starter battery terminal. For details refer to .
Ensure that the negative 12V starter battery terminal is disconnected.
(4) Continuity between joint connector (CAN5) terminal No.2 and EV remote-ECU connector terminal No.16
OK: Continuity (2 ohms or less)
(5) Continuity between joint connector (CAN5) terminal No.13 and EV remote-ECU connector terminal No.8
OK: Continuity (2 ohms or less)
cautionStrictly observe the specified wiring harness repair procedure. For details refer to .
Is the check result normal?
<All the resistances measure 2 ohms or less> Go to Step 3.
: <Either or all of the resistances measure more than 2 ohms> Repair intermediate connector C-23, or the wiring harness between joint connector (CAN5) and the EV remote-ECU connector.
 
STEP 3. Resistance measurement at EV remote-ECU connector.
cautionA digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to .
(1) Remove the EV remote-ECU, and measure at the equipment side.
(2) Resistance between EV remote-ECU connector terminal Nos.16 and 8
OK: 1 kΩ or more
Is the check result normal?
Power supply to the EV remote-ECU may be suspected. Diagnose the EV remote-ECU. Refer to GROUP 54A - MITSUBISHI Remote Control - Troubleshooting .
Replace the EV remote-ECU.
