STEP 3. Check the input signal (by using the pulse check
mode of the monitor).
Check the following switches and input signals:

• Key reminder switch

• Interior lamp loaded signal

(1) Operate diagnostic tool MB991958 according to the

procedure below to display "Pulse check."
a. Select "Interactive Diagnosis."
b. Select "System select."
c. Select "SWS."
d. Select "Pulse Checking."

(2) When the switches (see table below), which are applicable

for the input signal check, are operated, check if diagnostic
tool MB991958 sounds or not.

Q: When the key reminder switch and the interior lamp are

operated, does diagnostic tool MB991958 sound in each
case?
Buzzer of diagnostic tool MB991958 sounds normally. :

Go to Step 4.

When the ignition key is removed and reinserted,
diagnostic tool MB991958 does not sound : Refer to

Inspection Procedure N-1 "ETACS-ECU does not
receive any signal from the key reminder switch

P.54B-432

."

When one of the interior lamps is illuminated,
diagnostic tool MB991958 does not sound : Refer to

Inspection Procedure N-9 "ETACS-ECU does not
receive any interior lamp loaded signal

P.54B-474

."

STEP 4. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-218 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-218 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Verify that the ignition key hole illumination

lamp illuminates normally.

STEP 5. Check at ETACS-ECU connector C-218 in order to
check the ignition key hole illumination lamp circuit.
(1) Disconnect ETACS-ECU connector C-218, and measure at

the wiring harness side.

(2) The ignition key hole illumination lamp should illuminate

when terminal 63 is grounded.

Q: Does the ignition key hole illumination lamp illuminate?

YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. Verify that the ignition key

hole illumination lamp illuminates normally.

NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Check key reminder switch connector C-310 for
loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is key reminder switch connector C-310 in good

condition?
YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Verify that the ignition key hole illumination

lamp illuminates normally.

STEP 7. Check the ignition key hole illumination lamp
bulb.

Q: Is the ignition key hole illumination lamp bulb in good

condition?
YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Replace the bulb. Verify that the ignition key hole

illumination lamp illuminates normally.

STEP 8. Check the key reminder switch (ignition key hole
illumination).
(1) Disconnect key reminder switch connector C-310.
(2) Remove the ignition key hole illumination lamp bulb. Then

measure the resistance value between the bulb terminals.

(3) Install a bulb to the key remainder switch, and measure the

resistance between connector C-310 terminals 1 and 2. The
measured resistance value should be roughly the same as
the value measured in Step (2).

Q: Are these two resistance values extremely different?

YES : Replace the key reminder switch. Verify that the

ignition key hole illumination lamp illuminates
normally.

NO : <Nearly equal> Go to Step 9.

STEP 9. Check the battery power supply circuit to the key
reminder switch circuit. Measure the voltage at key
reminder switch connector C-310.
(1) Disconnect key reminder switch connector C-310, and

measure the voltage available at the wiring harness side of
the connector.

(2) Measure the voltage between terminal 2 and ground.

• The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery

positive voltage)?
YES : Go to Step 11.
NO : Go to Step 10.

STEP 10. Check the wiring harness between key reminder
switch connector C-310 (terminal 2) and battery.

NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-29 for loose, cor-
roded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector. If intermediate connector C-29 is damaged, repair or
replace the connector as described in GROUP 00E, Harness
Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between key reminder switch

connector C-310 (terminal 2) and battery in good
condition?
YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO : 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. Verify that
the ignition key hole illumination lamp illuminates
normally.
