DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB992006: Extra fine probe

• MB991223: Harness set

• 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

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, read CAN bus
diagnostic trouble code.

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

scan tool (M.U.T.-III)

P.42B-10

."

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check whether the CAN bus lines related DTC is set.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the DTC set?

).

STEP 4. Check the customize function.
Check that either of the followings other than "ENG strt enable"
or "Both disabled" are set for "KOS feature" with the customiza-
tion function.

• Both enable

• Door Entry enable

Q: Is the check result normal?

STEP 5. Key reminder switch check
(1) Disconnect the C-315 ETACS-ECU connector.
(2) Measure the resistance at the harness-side connector with

the ignition key removed from the ignition key cylinder.

(3) Check the continuity between the C-315 ETACS-ECU

connector terminal No. 13 and the ground.

OK: Continuity exists (2

Ω or less)

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Check the wiring harness between the key
reminder switch connector C-211 (terminal No. 3) and
ETACS-ECU connector C-315 (terminal No. 13) for open
circuit.
(1) Disconnect key reminder switch connector C-211 and

ETACS-ECU connector C-315, and check the wiring
harness.

(2) Check the wiring harness between key reminder switch

connector C-211 (terminal No. 3) and ETACS-ECU
connector C-315 (terminal No. 13).

OK: Continuity exists (2

Ω or less)

Q: Is the wiring harness between key reminder switch

connector C-211 (terminal No. 3) and ETACS-ECU
connector C-315 (terminal No. 13) in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 7.
NO (key reminder switch connector C-211 terminal No.3
− ETACS-ECU connector C-315 terminal No.13.) : Repair

the wiring harness between key reminder switch
connector C-211 (terminal No. 3) and ETACS-ECU
connector C-315 (terminal No. 13).
