DTC SET CONDITION
DTC B223B will be set when the A/C control panel
sends an abnormal data, the A/C control panel for
RHD is improperly assembled, or the ETACS-ECU
sends incorrect vehicle information (information for
RHD is sent).

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

Current trouble

｠

The A/C-ECU, the A/C control panel, or connector
(s) or wiring between the two may be defective.

Past trouble

｠

If DTC B223B is stored as a past trouble, carry out
diagnosis with particular emphasis on wiring and
connector(s) between the A/C-ECU and the A/C
control panel. If the connectors and wiring are
normal, and obviously the ECU is the cause of the
trouble, replace the ECU. If in doubt, do not replace
the ECU.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINT

DTC B222C: Coding Not Completed

M15502000960USA0000010000

If DTC U222C is set in the A/C-ECU, diagnose the
CAN main bus line.

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the
communication circuit is normal.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT
The A/C-ECU receives the vehicle information signals
from the ETACS-ECU via the CAN bus lines. If

incorrect global coding data is received or coding data
cannot be received with the ignition switch turned ON
when the coding confirmation is completed, the
diagnostic trouble code B222C is stored.
