Step 6. Check the wiring harness between C-217
ETACS-ECU connector terminal No.17 and F-02
rear wiper motor connector terminal No.3.

NOTE:

Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check
intermediate connector F-05, junction block
connectors C-209 <L.H. drive vehicles> and C-221
<R.H. drive vehicles>, and repair if necessary.

•

Check the power supply line for open or short
circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 7.

NO :

Repair the wiring harness.

Step 7. Retest the system.

Check that the rear wiper auto stop function works
normally.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

The trouble can be an intermittent

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00

−

).

NO :

Replace the ETACS-ECU.

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

SMART WIRING SYSTEM (SWS) NOT USING SWS MONITOR

54B-195

INSPECTION PROCEDURE G-3: When the shift lever <M/T> or selector lever <A/T> is moved to "R"
position during the rear wiper operation, the rear wiper does not operate at the continuous mode.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the
input and output signal circuits are normal.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM
If the rear wiper does not operate consecutively
when the selector lever is moved to the R position
during the rear wiper operation, the input signal
circuit to the back-up lamp switch ("R" position)
<M/T>, inhibitor switch (reverse position) <A/T> or
the ETACS-ECU may be defective.

POSSIBLE CAUSES

•

Malfunction of the back-up lamp switch <M/T>

•

Malfunction of the inhibitor switch <A/T>

•

Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

•

Damaged harness wires and connectors

Step 1. Confirm the operation of the rear wiper.

Check that the rear wiper work normally.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Refer to Inspection Procedure G-1 "The rear
wiper does not work at all

P.54B-185

."

Step 2. Pulse check

Check the input signal, which are related to the R
(reverse) gear-linked rear wiper operation.

OK: The MUT-II/III sounds or the voltmeter
needle fluctuates.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 3.

NO :

Refer to inspection procedure N-3 "The
back-up lamp switch signal is not received
<M/T>

P.54B-304

." Or refer to inspection

procedure N-3 "The inhibitor switch (reverse
position) signal is not received
<A/T>

P.54B-309

."

Step 3. Retest the system.

Check that the rear wiper operates consecutively
when the shift lever is moved to the R position during
the rear wiper operation.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

The trouble can be an intermittent

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00

−

Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-6

).

NO :

Replace the ETACS-ECU.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE G-4: The rear washer does not work.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the
input and output signal circuits are normal.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM
If the rear washer does not work normally, the input
signal circuits to the rear washer switch, rear washer
motor or the ETACS-ECU may be defective.

POSSIBLE CAUSES

•

Malfunction of the rear washer motor

•

Malfunction of the column switch

•

Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

•

Damaged harness wires and connectors
