STEP 4. Check Engine ECU connector B-21 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Are the connector and terminals in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair the faulty connector if possible or as

recommended, replace complete wiring harness.
(Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

). Install the air bag module (driver’s side).

(Refer to GROUP 52B, Air Bag Modules and Clock
Spring

P.52B-237

). Then go to Step 18.

STEP 5. Check the harness for short circuit to ground
between the Engine ECU connector B-21 terminal 14 and
the auto-cruise control switch connector C-302 terminal 2.
(1) Disconnect Engine ECU connector B-21 and measure at

the harness connector side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(3) Measure the continuity between Engine ECU connector

B-21 terminal 14 and ground.

(4) Reconnect Engine ECU connector B-21.

Q: Is the measured continuity open circuit?

YES : Install the air bag module (driver’s side). (Refer to

GROUP 52B, Air Bag Modules and Clock Spring

P.52B-237

). Then go to Step 17.

NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Check intermediate connector C-29, auto-cruise
control switch connector C-302 and clock spring
connectors C-303 and C-306 for loose, corroded or
damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector.
Q: Are the connectors and terminals in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Repair the faulty connector if possible or as

recommended, replace complete wiring harness.
(Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

STEP 7. Check the harness wire between Engine ECU
connector B-21 terminal 14 and auto-cruise control switch
connector C-302 terminal 2 for damage.
Q: Are the harness wires in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Repair the damaged harness wire if possible or as

recommended replace complete wiring harness and
install the air bag module (driver’s side). (Refer to
GROUP 52B, Air Bag Modules and Clock Spring

P.52B-237

). Then go to Step 18.

STEP 8. Check the clock spring.
Refer to GROUP 52B, Air Bag Modules and Clock Spring

P.52B-244

.

Q: Is the clock spring in good condition?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

). Install

the air bag module (driver’s side). (Refer to GROUP

).

Then go to Step 18.

NO : Replace the clock spring and install the air bag

module (driver’s side). (Refer to GROUP 52B, Air Bag
Modules and Clock Spring

STEP 9. Measure the ground voltage at auto-cruise control
switch connector C-302 by backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect auto-cruise control switch connector

C-302.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Turn the "CRUISE" (MAIN) switch to the "ON" position.

(4) Measure the ground voltage between auto-cruise control

switch connector C-302 terminal 3 and ground by
backprobing.

(5) Turn the "CRUISE" (MAIN) switch to the "OFF" position.
(6) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q: Is the measured voltage 0.5 volt or less?

YES : Go to Step 15.
NO : Go to Step 10.

STEP 10. Measure the ground voltage at Engine ECU
connector B-21.
(1) Disconnect all the connectors from the Engine ECU.
(2) Connect special tool MB992044 between the Engine ECU

and the body-side harness connector.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(4) Turn the "CRUISE" (MAIN) switch to the "ON" position.
(5) Measure the ground voltage between special tool 94-pin

connector terminal 15 (Engine ECU connector B-21
terminal 15) and ground.

(6) Turn the "CRUISE" (MAIN) switch to the "OFF" position.
(7) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(8) Disconnect special tool MB992044 between the Engine

ECU and the body-side harness connector.

(9) Reconnect all the connectors to the Engine ECU.

Q: Is the measured voltage 0.5 volt or less?

YES : Go to Step 12.
NO : Go to Step 11.
