If DTC B1041 or B1042 is stored as a past trouble, carry out diagnosis with
particular emphasis on wiring and connector(s) between the A/C-ECU and the
air mixing damper control motor and potentiometer. If the connectors and
wiring are normal, and obviously the ECU is the cause of the trouble, replace
the ECU. If in doubt, do not replace the ECU.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINT
Malfunction of connector. Malfunction of the harness. Malfunction of the air mixing damper control motor and potentiometer. Malfunction of the A/C-ECU.
DIAGNOSIS REQUIRED SPECIAL TOOL:
MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)
MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.) MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable MB991910: MUT-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with CAN
communication system)
STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus line.
Use scan tool MB991958 to diagnose the CAN bus lines.
1. Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connec
tor.

Q: Are the wiring harness between A/C-ECU connectors C-16 (terminals
16 and 20), C-17 (terminal 29) and air mixing damper control motor and
potentiometer connector C-109 (terminals 5, 7 and 3) in good condition?
YES:
Go to Step 6.
NO
: Re
pair the wirin
g harness. Then
go to Ste
p 7 .
NOTE: Also check joint connectors C-103 and C-104 for loose,
corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed
back in the connector. If joint connector C-103 or C-104
is damaged, repair or replace the connector as
described in HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION
.

The A/C-ECU, the air mixing damper control motor and potentiometer, or
connector(s) or wiring between the two may be defective.
PAST TROUBLE
If DTC B1045 is stored as a past trouble, carry out diagnosis with particular
emphasis on wiring and connector(s) between the A/C-ECU and the air mixing
damper control motor and potentiometer. If the connectors and wiring are
normal, and obviously the ECU is the cause of the trouble, replace the ECU. If
in doubt, do not replace the ECU.
