INSPECTION PROCEDURE K-2: Flasher Timer: Hazard warning lights do not illuminate.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION
If the ETACS-ECU receives "ON" signal from the
hazard warning light switch, the ETACS-ECU turns
on the flasher timer (incorporated in the
ETACS-ECU), thus causing the turn-signal lights to
flash.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the hazard warning lights do not flash, the power
supply line to the ETACS-ECU (dedicated to the
turn-signal lights) or the ETACS-ECU may be defec-
tive.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• The hazard warning light switch may be defective

• The ETACS-ECU 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:

• MB991223: Harness Set

Hazard Warning Light Circuit
