STEP 14. Wiring harness check between the C-103 joint
connector and the C-46 S-AWC-ECU connector.
(1) Disconnect the C-46 S-AWC-ECU connector.
(2) Disconnect the C-103 joint connector, and measure at the

wiring harness side.

(3) Check the continuity (short to ground) between terminal No.

16 and the ground.

OK: No continuity

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 15.
NO : Repair the wiring harness between C-103 joint

connector terminal No.16 and C-46 S-AWC-ECU
connector terminal No.12. Then, replace fuse No. 17
or fusible link No. 34.

STEP 15. Wiring harness check between the C-103 joint
connector and the A-05 ASC-ECU connector.
(1) Disconnect ASC-ECU connector A-05.
(2) Disconnect the C-103 joint connector, and measure at the

wiring harness side.

(3) Check the continuity (short to ground) between terminal

No.17 and the ground.

OK: No continuity

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Replace the fuse No. 17 or the fusible link No. 34.

Then, go to Step 20.

NO : Repair the wiring harness between C-103 joint

connector terminal No.17 and A-05 ASC-ECU
connector terminal No.2. Then, replace fuse No. 17 or
fusible link No. 34.

STEP 16. Voltage measurement at A-05 ASC-ECU
connector
(1) Disconnect the connector, connect the ASC check harness

(Special tool: MB991997) to the wiring harness-side
connector, and measure the voltage at the special tool
connector side.
NOTE: Do not connect the special tool to ASC-ECU.

(2) Measure the voltage between the terminal No. 2 and the

body ground.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 20.
NO : Go to Step 17.

STEP 17. Measure the voltage at the C-309 ETACS-ECU
connector.
(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring

harness-side connector.

(2) Measure the voltage between the terminal No. 1 and the

body ground.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 18.
NO : Repair the wiring harness between C-309

ETACS-ECU connector terminal No. 1 and the fusible
link No. 34.

STEP 18. Measure the voltage at the C-315 ETACS-ECU
connector.
(1) Without disconnecting the connector, measure by

backprobing.

(2) Measure the voltage between the terminal No. 4 and the

body ground.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 20.
NO : Go to Step 19.

STEP 19. Wiring harness check between A-05 ASC-ECU
connector terminal No. 2 and C-315 ETACS-ECU connector
terminal No. 4

• Check for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 20.
NO : Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 20. Resistance measurement at A-05 ASC-ECU
connector
(1) Disconnect the connector, connect the ASC check harness

(Special tool: MB991997) to the wiring harness-side
connector, and measure the voltage at the special tool
connector side.
NOTE: Do not connect the special tool to ASC-ECU.

(2) Measure the resistance between the terminal No. 16 and

the body ground as well as between the terminal No. 47
and the body ground.

OK: Continuity exists (2

Ω or less)

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 21.
NO : Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 21. Retest the system.
Q: Is the communication with scan tool MB991958

possible?
YES : Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to GROUP 00

− How

to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-15

.)

NO : Check that the M.U.T.-III connection cable is properly

connected, and that the V.C.I. switch is turned ON.
Then, replace the hydraulic unit (integrated with
ASC-ECU).(Refer to

P.35C-272

.) Then go to Step 22.

STEP 22. Retest the system.
Q: Is the communication with scan tool MB991958

possible?
YES : Return to Step 1.
