DTC B210A: +B power supply (low); DTC B210B: +B power supply (high): Diagnosis

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Required Special Tools: 

  1. STEP 1. Power supply fuse check 

    Q: Is the fuse in good condition? 

    1. YES:  Go to Step 2.
    2. NO:  Replace the power supply fuse, and then go to  Step 7.
  2. STEP 2. Battery check 

    Refer to BATTERY TEST .

    Q: Is the battery in good condition? 

    1. YES:  Go to Step 3.
    2. NO:  Charge or replace the battery.
  3. STEP 3. Charging system check

    Q: Is the charging system in good condition? 

    1. YES:  Go to Step 4.
    2. NO:  Repair or replace the charging system component(s).
  4. STEP 4. Voltage measurement at ETACS-ECU connector (IODI terminal). 
    1. Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
    2. Measure the resistance between the ETACS-ECU connector (IOD1 terminal) and ground.

      OK: The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage). 

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  Go to  Step 6.
    2. NO:  Go to Step 5.
  5. STEP 5. Check of short to power supply, short to ground, and open circuit in IODI line between fusible link and ETACS-ECU connector 

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION ).
    2. NO:  Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
  6. STEP 6. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-III), check data list. 

    Check the power supply fuse voltage.

    CAUTION: To prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-III), always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-III).
    1. Connect scan Tool (M.U.T.-III). Refer to "HOW TO CONNECT THE SCAN TOOL (M.U.T.-III) ."
    2. Check the ETACS data list.
      • Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
      Item No. Item name Normal condition
      Item 253 Voltage sensing of IOD Line Battery positive voltage

      OK: Normal condition is displayed. 

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  Go to Step 7.
    2. NO:  Replace the ETACS-ECU.
  7. STEP 7. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code. 

    Check again if the DTC is stored in the ETACS-ECU.

    1. Erase the DTC.
    2. Turn the ignition switch from "LOCK" (OFF) position to "ON" position.
    3. Check if DTC is stored.

    Q: Is the DTC stored? 

    1. YES:  Replace the ETACS-ECU.
    2. NO:  The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION ).
