SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

SMART WIRING SYSTEM (SWS) USING SWS MONITOR

54C-354

POSSIBLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the column switch

• Malfunction of the rear fog lamp switch

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

Step 1. Check that the tail/stop lamps and
headlamps operate.

Check that the tail/stop lamps and headlamps
illuminate normally.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Check the tail/stop lamps and the
headlamps (Refer to trouble symptom chart

P.54C-44

).

Step 2. ECU check by using the SWS monitor

Check that the power supply and earth lines to the
column switch (column-ECU) and the ETACS-ECU
and the SWS communication lines are normal.

• Ignition switch: OFF

ECUS TO BE CHECKED

• COLUMN ECU

• ETACS ECU

OK: "OK" are displayed for all the items

Q: Are the check result normal?

Step 7. Resistance measurement at the G-23 rear
fog lamp connector <LH drive vehicles> or G-11
rear fog lamp connector <RH drive vehicles>.

(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the

wiring harness side.

(2) Check the resistance between the lamp

connector and body earth.

•

Resistance between G-23 rear fog lamp relay

connector <LH drive vehicles> or G-11 rear
fog lamp relay connector <RH drive vehicles>
connector terminal No.1 and body earth

OK: 2

Ω or less

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 9.

NO :

Go to Step 8.

Step 8. Check the wiring harness from G-23 rear
fog lamp connector <LH drive vehicles> or G-11
rear fog lamp connector <RH drive vehicles>
terminal No.1 to body earth.

• Check the earth wires for open circuit.

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.00-5

).

NO :

Repair the wiring harness.
