SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)

54B-468

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The ETACS-ECU operates the following equipment
and function(s) according to signal from the ignition
switch (ACC):

• Windshield wiper and washer

• Interior light automatic shutoff function

The ETACS-ECU receives information on the ignition
switch condition (ACC) from the middle-grade multi
center display unit via CAN communication. If the
ignition switch (ACC) input signal is incorrect, refer to
the appropriate Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart

P.54B-27

.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

If the signal is not normal, the equipment and func-
tion(s), which are described in "CIRCUIT OPERA-
TION", do not work normally.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• The wiring harness or connectors may have

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

• The ETACS-ECU may be defective

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991223: Harness Set

STEP 1. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-219 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-219 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. If the equipment described in "CIRCUIT

OPERATION" works normally, the input signal from
the ignition switch (ACC) should be normal.

STEP 2. Check the ignition switch (ACC) line of the power
supply circuit to the ETACS-ECU. Measure the voltage at
ETACS-ECU connector C-219.
(1) Disconnect ETACS-ECU connector C-219 and measure the

voltage available at the junction block side of the connector.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ACC" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 4 and ground.

• The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery

positive voltage)?
YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. If the equipment described

in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" works normally, the input
signal from the ignition switch (ACC) should be
normal.

NO : Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU
connector C-219 (terminal 4) and the ignition switch (ACC).

NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-29 and junction
block connector C-214 for loose, corroded, or damaged termi-
nals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If intermediate
connector C-29 or junction block connector C-214 is damaged,
repair or replace the damaged component(s) as described in
GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU connector

C-219 (terminal 4) and ignition switch (ACC) in good
condition?
YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the

connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary. If the
equipment described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION"
works normally, the input signal from the ignition
switch (ACC) should be normal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE M-2: ETACS-ECU does not receive any signal from the ignition switch
(IG1).

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The ETACS-ECU operates the following equipment
or functions according to signal from the ignition
switch (IG1):

• Ignition key reminder tone alarm function

• Light reminder tone alarm function

• Seat belt tone alarm function

• Door ajar warning buzzer

• Turn-signal light buzzer

• Multi center display operation tone <vehicles with

multi center display (middle grade type)>

• Power window timer function

• Sunroof timer function

• Headlight automatic shutdown function

• Turn-signal light

• Dome light dimming function

• Ignition key hole illumination light

• If the power supply circuit from the battery to the

ETACS-ECU is open, this circuit is used as
backup circuit.

If the signal is not normal, the equipment or functions
described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" do not work
normally.
The ETACS-ECU receives information on the ignition
switch condition (IG1) from the combination meter
via CAN communication. If the ignition switch (IG1)
input signal is incorrect, refer to the Diagnostic Trou-
ble Code Chart

P.54B-27

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• The wiring harness or connectors may have

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

• The ETACS-ECU may be defective
