DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check sunroof-ECU connector E-07 and sunroof
motor connector E-09 for loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are sunroof connector E-07 and sunroof switch

connector E-09 damaged?
YES : Repair or replace the damaged components. Refer to

GROUP 00E

P.00E-2

, Harness Connector

Inspection. Then go to Step 5.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Measure the power supply/ground line at sunroof
motor connector E-09.
(1) Remove the headlining. (Refer to GROUP 52A, Headlining

P.52A-42

.)

(2) Disconnect sunroof motor connector E-09 and measure at

the harness side.

(3) Turn the ignition key "ON".

(4) Measure the voltage between terminal 1 and ground while

the sunroof switch is depressing to the slide open/close
position. And measure the voltage between terminal 2 and
ground while the sunroof switch is depressing to the slide
open/close position.

• The measured value should be approximately 12 volts

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Does the measured voltage correspond with this range?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check the harness wires between sunroof-ECU
connector E-07 (terminal No.9 and 10) and sunroof motor
connector E-09 (terminal No.1 and 2).
Q: Are there any damaged wires between sunroof-ECU

connector E-07 (terminal No.9 and 10) and sunroof
motor connector E-09 (terminal No.1 and 2)?
YES : Repair or replace the harness wire, then go to Step 5.
NO : Replace the sunroof-ECU. Then go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check the sunroof motor.
(1) Remove the sunroof motor. (Refer to

P.42-200

.)

(2) Follow the table below to check for the direction of rotation

of the drive gear when the battery is connected to the
connector.

Q: Is the sunroof motor damaged?

YES : Replace sunroof motor, then go to Step 5.
NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Retest the system.
Q: Does the sunroof open and close normally?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO : Return to Step 1.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
The ETACS-ECU operates the sunroof timer func-
tion, based on input signals from the following
switches:

• Ignition switch (IG1)

• Driver's or front passenger's door switch

If the sunroof timer function do not work normally, the
input signal circuit or the ETACS-ECU may be defec-
tive.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Malfunction of the front door switch

• Malfunction of the ignition switch

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Damaged harness wires or connectors

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991223: Harness Set

• MB991529: Diagnostic Trouble Code Check Harness

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable

• MB991911: MUT-III Main Harness B

STEP 1. Choose method of the ETACS-ECU input signal
check.
Q: Is the ETACS-ECU input signal check performed by

scan tool MB991958 or a voltmeter?
By scan tool MB991958 : Go to Step 2.
By a voltmeter : Go to Step 3.
