INSPECTION PROCEDURE O-19: ETACS-ECU does not receive a interior light loaded signal.: Diagnosis
Required Special Tools:
- MB991223: Test Harness Set
- MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)
- STEP 1. Check the battery power supply circuit to the ETACS-ECU. Test at ETACS-ECU connector C-319.
- Disconnect ETACS-ECU connector C-319 and measure the voltage available at the junction block side of the connector.
- Measure the voltage between terminal 20 and ground.
- The voltage should equal approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage).
Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage)?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO: Go to Step 2.
- STEP 2. Check the ETACS-ECU connector C-319 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-319 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO: Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer to , HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION . The functions, which are described in the "TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT) ," should work normally.
- STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU connector C-319 (terminal 20) and battery.
NOTE: Also check junction block connector C-312, joint connector C-141 and intermediate connector C-209 for loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If junction block connector C-312, joint connector C-141 or intermediate connector C-209 is damaged, repair or replace the damaged component(s) as described in , HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION .
Q: Is the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU connector C-319 (terminal 20) and the battery in good condition?
YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO: Repair the wiring harness. If the functions or equipment, which are described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION ", work normally, the interior light loaded signal should be normal.
- STEP 4. Check the ignition switch (IG1) circuit to the ETACS-ECU. Test at ETACS-ECU connector C-319.
- Disconnect ETACS-ECU connector C-319 and measure the voltage available at the junction block side of the connector.
- Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
- Measure the voltage between terminal 8 and ground.
- The voltage should equal approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage).
Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage)?
YES : Go to Step 7.
NO: Go to Step 5.
- STEP 5. Check the ETACS-ECU connector C-319 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-319 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO: Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer to , HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION . The functions, which are described in the "TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT) ," should work normally.
- STEP 6. Check the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU connector C-319 (terminal 8) and the ignition switch (IG1).
NOTE: Also check junction block connector C-311 for loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If junction block connector C-311 is damaged, repair or replace the damaged component(s) as described in , HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION .
Q: Is the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU connector C-319 (terminal 8) and the ignition switch (IG1) in good condition?
YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO: Repair the wiring harness. If the functions or equipment, which are described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION ", work normally, the interior light loaded signal should be normal.
- STEP 7. Check the ignition switch (ACC) circuit to the ETACS-ECU. Test at ETACS-ECU connector C-319.
- Disconnect ETACS-ECU connector C-319 and measure the voltage available at the junction block side of the connector.
- Turn the ignition switch to the "ACC" position.
- Measure the voltage between terminal 4 and ground.
- The voltage should equal approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage).
Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage)?
YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. If the functions or equipment, which are described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION ", work normally, the interior light loaded signal should be normal.
NO: Go to Step 8.
- STEP 8. Check the ETACS-ECU connector C-319 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-319 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 9.
NO: Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer to , HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION . The functions, which are described in the "TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT) ," should work normally.
- STEP 9. Check the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU connector C-319 (terminal 4) and the ignition switch (ACC).
NOTE: Also check junction block connector C-312 and intermediate connector C-209 for loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If junction block connector C-312 and intermediate connector C-209 are damaged, repair or replace the damaged component(s) as described in , HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION .
Q: Is the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU connector C-319 (terminal 4) and ignition switch (ACC) in good condition?
YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO: Repair the wiring harness. If the functions or equipment, which are described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION ", work normally, the interior light loaded signal should be normal.
