• MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with

CAN communication system)

STEP 1. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-316 and lighting
control sensor connector D-02 for loose, corroded or
damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector.
Q: Are ETACS-ECU connector C-316 and lighting control

sensor connector D-02 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s).

STEP 2. Check the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU
connector C-316 (terminal 1) and lighting control sensor
connector D-02 (terminal 3).
Q: Is the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU connector

C-316 (terminal 1) and lighting control sensor connector
D-02 (terminal 3) in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 3.
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.

STEP 3. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Check again if the DTC is set to the ETACS-ECU.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958. Refer to "How to connect the

Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III)

P.54B-4

."

(2) Erase the DTC.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(4) Check if the DTC is set.
(5) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Replace the lighting control sensor.
NO : A poor connection, open circuit or other intermittent

malfunction is present in the LIN bus lines between
the lighting control sensor and the ETACS-ECU
(Refer to GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent
Malfunction

P.00-15

).

TROUBLE JUDGMENT

The ETACS-ECU receives signal from the column
switch. If signal cannot be received at all, DTC
U1109 will be set.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

Current trouble

• Connector(s) or wiring harness in the LIN bus

lines between the column switch and the
ETACS-ECU, the power supply system of the col-
umn switch, or the column switch itself may be
defective.

Past trouble

• If DTC U1109 is stored as a past trouble, carry

out diagnosis with particular emphasis on wiring
and connector(s) in the LIN bus line between the
column switch and the ETACS-ECU, and the
power supply system of the column switch.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• The column switch may be defective.

• The wiring harness or connectors may have

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

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

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

• MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable

• MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with

CAN communication system)

STEP 1. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-301 and column
switch connector C-212 for loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are ETACS-ECU connector C-301 and column switch

connector C-212 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s).

STEP 2. Check the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU
connector C-301 (terminal 1) and column switch connector
C-212 (terminal 3).
NOTE: Also check joint connector C-102 for loose, corroded, or
damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
If joint connector C-102 is damaged, repair or replace the con-
nector as described in GROUP 00E, Harness Connector
Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU connector

C-301 (terminal 1) and column switch connector C-212
(terminal 3) in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 3.
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.

DTC U150B: Column SW checksum error

.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT

The ETACS-ECU will set DTC U150B when abnor-
mal signals are received from the column switch (col-
umn-ECU).

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• The column switch (lighting switch) may be

defective.
