TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
  • The wiring harness or connectors may have loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector
  • The ETACS-ECU may be defective
 
 
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
  • MB992006: Extra fine probe
  • MB991223: Harness set
STEP 1. Check headlight relay (LOW) connector A-32X, ETACS-ECU connector C-410 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Is headlight relay (LOW) connector A-32X, ETACS-ECU connector C-410 in good condition?
Go to Step 2
Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection .
 
STEP 2. Check the wiring harness between headlight relay (LOW) connector A-32X (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU connector C-410 (terminal 6).
Check the input line for short circuit.
Is the wiring harness between headlight relay (LOW) connector A-32X (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU connector C-410 (terminal 6) and the ground in good condition?
Go to Step 3
The wiring harness may be damaged or the connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. Repair the wiring harness as necessary.
 
STEP 3. Using scan tool MB991958, check whether the DTC is set again.
Check again if the DTC No.B1E25 is set in the ETACS-ECU.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Turn on the low-beam headlights.
(3) Check the DTC is set.
Is the DTC set?
Replace the ETACS-ECU.
The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (GROUP 00 - How to use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
