Q: Is the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU connector

C-218 (terminals 51, 59 and 67) and data link connector
C-125 (terminals 9, 3 and 1) in good condition?
YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. The system should

communicate with the SWS monitor kit normally.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The power supply to the column switch is pro-

vided by the battery and the ignition switch (IG1).

• If the power supply system from the battery is

defective, the system operates by the power sup-
ply from the ignition switch (IG1).

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
The power supply circuit to the column switch (col-
umn-ECU) may be defective. If the battery power
supply circuit (terminal 1 of the column switch) to the
ECU is damaged, also check the power supply circuit
from the ignition switch (IG1) (terminal 9 of the col-
umn switch), and repair if necessary.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• The wiring harness or connectors may have

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

• The column switch may be defective

• The ETACS-ECU may be defective
