Inspection Procedure 2: The system is not turned on and off by operating the LDW switch: 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:
- MB991223: Harness Set
- MB992006: Extra Fine Probe
- STEP 1. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-III), read the LDW diagnostic trouble code.
Check if DTC is stored in the LDW.
Q: Is the DTC stored?
- YES: Troubleshoot the LDW-ECU. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART .
- NO: Go to Step 2
- STEP 2. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-III), check data list.
Using the ETACS-ECU service data, check the LDW switch signal.
- When the LDW switch is pressed.
Item No. Item name Normal condition Item 405 LDW switch ON - When the LDW switch is not pressed.
Item No. Item name Normal condition Item 405 LDW switch OFF OK: Normal condition is displayed.
Q: Is the check result normal?
- YES: Go to Step 3
- NO: Troubleshoot the ETACS-ECU. Refer to INSPECTION PROCEDURE 16: THE LDW SWITCH SIGNAL IS NOT RECEIVED .
- When the LDW switch is pressed.
- STEP 3. Voltage measurement at LDW-ECU connector (IG terminal).
- Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
- Check the voltage between the LDW-ECU connector (IG terminal) and ground.
OK: The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage).
Q: Is the check result normal?
- YES: Go to Step 5.
- NO: Go to Step 4.
- STEP 4. Check of open circuit in IG line between LDW-ECU and ETACS-ECU connector.
Q: Is the check result normal?
- YES: Repair the power supply circuit (between battery and ETACS-ECU).
- NO: Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
- STEP 5. Resistance measurement at LDW-ECU connector (GND terminal)
- Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
- Measure the resistance between the LDW-ECU connector (GND terminal) and ground.
OK: The resistance should be 2 ohms or less
Q: Is the check result normal?
- YES: Go to Step 7.
- NO: Go to Step 6.
- STEP 6. Check of open circuit in GND line between LDW-ECU connector and ground.
Q: Is the check result normal?
- YES: The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION ).
- NO: Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
- STEP 7. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-III), check data list
Check the LDW-ECU service data.
- When the LDW switch is pressed.
Item No. Item name Normal condition Item 18 LDW switch ON - When the LDW switch is not pressed.
Item No. Item name Normal condition Item 18 LDW switch OFF OK: Normal condition is displayed.
Q: Is the check result normal?
- YES: The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION ).
- NO: Replace the LDW-ECU.
- When the LDW switch is pressed.
