(Refer to

P.35C-247

).

STEP 5. Using scan tool MB991958, check the other
system DTC
Using scan tool, check that DTC U0141 is not set by the combi-
nation meter system.
Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Diagnose the combination meter (Refer to GROUP

54A

− Combination Meter/DTC

P.54A-53

). Then go to

Step 8.

NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Using scan tool MB991958, check the other
system DTC
Using scan tool, check that DTC U0121 is not set by the
ETACS system.
Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Perform troubleshooting on ETACS-ECU (Refer to

GROUP 54A

− ETACS/DTC

P.54A-741

). Then go to

Step 8.

DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

ACTIVE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM (ASC)

35C-241

CAUTION

• If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incor-

rect diagnostic trouble code may be set. Prior to this
diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines (Refer to
GROUP 54C

− CAN Bus Line Diagnostic Flow

P.54C-10

).

• Whenever ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus

lines are normal.

.

OPERATION

The ETACS-ECU terminal No.15 is grounded by pressing the
ASC OFF switch and illuminate the ASC OFF indicator. The
ON/OFF state of the ASC OFF switch is transferred from
ETACS-ECU to ASC-ECU via the CAN bus line.

.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

This may be caused by the open circuit in the ASC OFF switch
circuit.

.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Damaged wiring harness and connectors

• ASC OFF switch malfunction

• ETACS-ECU malfunction

• The ASC OFF switch is pressed for more than 15 seconds

(The system returns to normal by pressing the ignition
switch to the "OFF" position and to the "ON" position).

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable

• MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A

STEP 1. ASC OFF switch check
Refer to

P.35C-286

.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Replace ASC OFF switch (Refer to

P.35C-285

). Then

go to Step 6.
