STEP 6. Check the wiring harness between front door
switch (RH) connector D-34 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU
connector C-219 (terminal 10).

NOTE: Also check junction block connector C-204 for loose,
corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in
the connector. If junction block connector C-204 is damaged,
repair or replace the damaged component(s) as described in
GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between front door switch (RH)

connector D-34 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU connector
C-219 (terminal 10) in good condition?
YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. If the functions described

in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" work normally, the input
signal from the front door switch (RH) should be
normal.

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. If the
functions described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" work
normally, the input signal from the front door switch
(RH) should be normal.

STEP 7. Check front door switch (LH) connector D-22 for
loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is front door switch (LH) connector D-22 in good

condition?
YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. If the functions described in "CIRCUIT

OPERATION" work normally, the input signal from the
front door switch (LH) should be normal.

STEP 8. Check the front door switch (RH).
Remove the front door switch (LH). Refer to GROUP 42, Door,
Door Assembly

P.42-37

. Then check continuity between the

switch terminals and the body ground.

Q: Is the front door switch (LH) in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 9.
NO : Replace the front door switch (LH). If the functions

described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" work normally,
the input signal from the front door switch (LH) should
be normal.

STEP 9. Measure resistance at the lower metal part of the
front door switch (LH) in order to check the ground circuit
to the front door switch (LH).

NOTE: Check that the front door switch (LH) is grounded to the
vehicle body via its mounting screw.
Remove the cap, and measure the resistance value between
the lower metal part and ground.

• The resistance should be 2 ohms or less.

Q: Is the measured resistance 2 ohms or less?

YES : Go to Step 10.
NO : Check the installation of the switch, and repair if

necessary. If the functions described in "CIRCUIT
OPERATION" work normally, the input signal from the
front door switch (LH) should be normal.

STEP 10. 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 11.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. If the functions described in "CIRCUIT

OPERATION" work normally, the input signal from the
front door switch (LH) should be normal.

STEP 11. Check the wiring harness between front door
switch (LH) connector D-22 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU
connector C-218 (terminal 59).
Q: Is the wiring harness between front door switch (LH)

connector D-22 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU connector
C-218 (terminal 59) in good condition?
YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. If the functions described

in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" work normally, the input
signal from the front door switch (LH) should be
normal.

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. If the
functions described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" work
normally, the input signal from the front door switch
(LH) should be normal.

INPUT SIGNAL PROCEDURES

SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)

54B-420

INSPECTION PROCEDURE M-5: Column Switch: ETACS-ECU does not receive any signal from the
taillamp switch, the headlamp switch, the passing lamp switch, the dimmer switch or the turn-signal
lamp switch.

NOTE: This troubleshooting procedure requires the
use of diagnostic tool MB991958 and SWS monitor
kit MB991813. For details on how to use the SWS
monitor, refer to "How to connect SWS monitor

P.54B-13

."

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The ETACS-ECU operates the following equipment
or functions according to signal from the column
switch (turn-signal lamp and lighting switch):

• Light reminder tone alarm function

• Turn-signal lamp buzzer
• Headlamp

• Turn-signal lamp

• High-beam indicator

• Turn-signal indicators

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

If the signal is not normal, the equipment or functions
described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" do not work
normally. If the signal is not normal, the column
switch (turn-signal lamp and lighting switch) or the
ETACS-ECU may be defective.

.
