13A-703

STEP 3. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Check that the other ECU performing CAN communication

with TCM sets DTC No. U0101. Refer to GROUP 54C, CAN
Communication-related DTC (U-code) Table

P.54C-220

.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC U0101 set?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 4. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) After the MFI-DTC has been deleted, read the MFI-DTC

again.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC U0101 set?

YES : Replace the TCM. Then go to Step 6.
NO : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent

of CAN bus line between ECM and TCM. Refer to
GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection
Service Points

− How to Cope with Intermittent

Malfunctions

P.00-15

.

STEP 5. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) After the MFI-DTC has been deleted, read the MFI-DTC

again.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC U0101 set?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced,

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, Diagnosis
− ID Code Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles

with KOS>

P.42B-15

or GROUP 42C, Diagnosis

− ID

Codes Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with
WCM>

P.42C-10

. Then go to Step 6.

NO : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent

of CAN bus line between ECM and TCM. Refer to
GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection
Service Points

STEP 6. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) After the MFI-DTC has been deleted, read the MFI-DTC

again.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC U0101 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO : The inspection is complete.

DTC U0121: ASC-ECU Time-out

CAUTION

• If the ECM output the DTC U0121, make sure

to diagnose the CAN bus line.

• Before replacing the ECU, make sure that the

communication circuit is operating normally.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Conditions

• Battery positive voltage is 10 volts or higher.

• At least 2 seconds have passed since the ignition

switch is turned to "ON" position.

Judgement Criterion

• Unable to receive ASC-ECU signals through the

CAN bus line for 4 seconds.

.

COMMENT

Current Trouble

• Some of the possible causes are a harness or

connector damage between the ECM and the
ASC-ECU on the CAN bus line, a failure in the
ASC-ECU power supply system, a failure in the
ASC-ECU, or a failure in the ECM.

Past Trouble

• Proceed to troubleshoot based on a harness or

connector damage on the CAN bus line between
the ECM and ASC-ECU, and a failure in the ASC
power supply system. Refer to "How to cope with
past trouble" (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

− How

to Treat Past Trouble

P.00-17

).

NOTE: If a malfunction occurred in the past, a failure
cannot be discovered through the MB991958 CAN
bus diagnosis even if there might be a problem with
the CAN bus. In this case, refer to GROUP 00, How
to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

−

How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-15

.

Furthermore, it is possible to narrow down the areas
of the possible failures from the DTCs that are output
by the ECUs, which are communicating on the CAN
bus (Refer to GROUP 54C, CAN bus line Diagnos-
tics Flow

P.54C-10

).

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most
likely causes for this code to be set are:)

• CAN line harness damage or connector damage.

• ASC-ECU failed.

• ECM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

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

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose CAN bus
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.
