line.

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.54A-685

."

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C,

Diagnosis

P.54C-14

).

STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991958, check for any
diagnostic trouble code.
Check if DTC is set to the KOS-ECU <vehicles with KOS> or
WCM <vehicles with WCM>.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Check whether the KOS or WCM related DTC is set.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the DTC set?

YES <vehicles with KOS> : Troubleshoot the KOS (Refer

to GROUP 42B, KOS

P.42B-20

).

YES <vehicles with WCM> : Troubleshoot the WCM (Refer

to GROUP 42C, WCM

P.42C-14

).

NO : Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check the keyless operation key <KOS> or
keyless entry transmitter <WCM>.
Q: is the keyless operation key <KOS> or keyless entry

transmitter <WCM> normally?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO <vehicles with KOS> : Troubleshoot the KOS (Refer to

GROUP 42B, KOS

P.42B-20

).

NO <vehicles with WCM> : Troubleshoot the WCM (Refer

to GROUP 42C, WCM

P.42C-14
