.

FUNCTION

If the scan tool MB991958 cannot communicate with
the ASC-ECU, this diagnosis result will be set.

.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT CONDITIONS

If a communication flag is not set for the ASC-ECU,
the ETACS-ECU determines that there is a failure.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Malfunction of the connector [joint connector

(CAN3) or ASC-ECU connector improperly con-
nected]

• Malfunction of the wiring harness [open circuit

between the ASC-ECU and the joint connector
(CAN3), power supply circuit to the ASC-ECU]

• Malfunction of the ASC-ECU

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991223: Harness Set
• MB992006: Extra Fine Probe
• MB991997: ASC Check Harness

STEP 1. Check joint connector (CAN3) C-127 and ASC-ECU
connector A-05 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals,
or terminals pushed back in the connector.

CAUTION

The strand end of the twisted wire should be within 10 cm
(4 inches) from the connector. For details refer to

P.54C-7

.

Q: Are joint connector (CAN3) C-127 and ASC-ECU

connector A-05 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair the damaged parts.

STEP 2. Check the wiring harness between joint connector
(CAN3) C-127 and ASC-ECU connector A-05 for open
circuit.

CAUTION

Strictly observe the specified wiring harness repair proce-
dure. For details refer to

P.54C-7

.

(1) Disconnect joint connector (CAN3) C-127 and ASC-ECU

connector A-05, and check the wiring harness.

(2) Check the wiring harness between joint connector (CAN3)

C-127 (terminal 6) and ASC-ECU connector A-05 (terminal
12)

OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)

(3) Check the wiring harness between joint connector (CAN3)

C-127 (terminal 19) and ASC-ECU connector A-05
(terminal 13)

OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)

Q: Is the wiring harness between joint connector (CAN3)

C-127 and ASC-ECU connector A-05 in good condition?
YES : Check the power supply circuit of the ASC-ECU.

Refer to GROUP 35C, Troubleshooting

P.35C-258

.

NO : Repair the wiring harness between joint connector

(CAN3) C-127 and ASC-ECU connector A-05.

DIAGNOSTIC ITEM 10: Diagnose when the scan tool cannot receive the data sent by ECM.

CAUTION

When servicing a CAN bus line, ground yourself by touching a metal object such as an unpainted
water pipe. If you fail to do so, a component connected to the CAN bus line may be damaged.
