INPUT SIGNAL PROCEDURES

SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)

54B-473

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step 1. Pulse check
Check whether the ETACS-ECU receives signal from a trans-
mitter or not. For this check, you should use the 4-button-type
transmitter (integrated with a key), which has already been reg-
istered.

NOTE: For how to register the keyless entry transmitter
encrypted code, refer to GROUP 42

− On-vehicle Service

P.42-73

.

OK: The MUT-III sounds or the voltmeter needle fluctu-
ates.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Go to Step 4.

Step 2. Check the transmitter battery.
Refer to GROUP 42

− Keyless entry system

P.42-70

.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Replace the keyless entry key integrated transmitter

battery.

Step 3. Register the encrypted code, and then retest the
system.
(1) Register the keyless entry transmitter again.
(2) Check that each signal is received from the keyless entry

transmitter.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer

to GROUP 00

− How to Cope with Intermittent

Malfunction

P.00-14

).

NO : Replace the keyless entry transmitter.

Step 4. Retest the system.
Check that each signal is received from the keyless entry key
integrated transmitter.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer

to GROUP 00

− How to Cope with Intermittent

Malfunction

P.00-14

).

NO : Replace the ETACS-ECU.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE N-9: ETACS-ECU does not receive any interior lamp loaded signal.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The ETACS-ECU operates the following equipment
or functions by the interior lamp loaded signal:

• Interior lamp automatic shut-down function

• Dome lamp

• Ignition key hole illumination lamp

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

If the signal is not normal, the equipment or functions
described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" do not work
normally.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-

90

• Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-

80

• The wiring harness or connectors may have

loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or termi-
nals pushed back in the connector

• The ETACS-ECU may be defective

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991223: Harness Set

STEP 1. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-219 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-219 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. If the functions or equipment described in

"CIRCUIT OPERATION" work normally, the interior
lamp loaded signal should be normal.

STEP 2. Check the battery line of power supply circuit to
the ETACS-ECU. Measure the voltage at ETACS-ECU
connector C-219.
(1) Disconnect ETACS-ECU connector C-219 and measure the

voltage available at the junction block side of the connector.

(2) Measure the voltage between terminal 20 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 4.
NO : Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU
connector C-219 (terminal 20) and battery.

NOTE: Also check junction block connector C-214 for loose,
corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in
the connector. If junction block connector C-214 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 ETACS-ECU connector

C-219 (terminal 20) 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. If the
functions or equipment described in "CIRCUIT
OPERATION" work normally, the interior lamp loaded
signal should be normal.
