HOW TO DIAGNOSE THE CAN BUS LINE
Required Special Tools:
: Diagnostic Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)
MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)
MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable
MB991910: MUT-III Main Harness A
To prevent damage to diagnostic tool , always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting diagnostic tool .
1. Connect diagnostic tool to the data link connector.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
3. Select "CAN bus diagnosis" from the start-up screen.
4. When the vehicle information is displayed, confirm that it
matches the vehicle whose CAN bus lines will be
diagnosed.
If they match, go to step 8.
If not, go to step 5.
5. Select "view vehicle information" button.
6. When the vehicle information is displayed, confirm again
that it matches the vehicle which is diagnosed CAN bus line.
If they match, go to step 8.
If not, go to step 5.
7. Press the "OK" button.
8. When the options are displayed, choose the options (mark
the check) and then select "OK".

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES
DTC B1001, B1002: Interior Temperature Sensor System.
DTC SET CONDITION
DTC B1001 is set if there is a short circuit in the
interior temperature sensor input circuit.
DTC B1002 is set if there is a defective connector
connection, or if there is an open circuit in the
harness.
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
Current trouble
The A/C-ECU, the interior air temperature sensor,
or connector(s) or wiring between the two may be
defective.Past trouble
If DTC B1001 or B1002 is stored as a past trou-
ble, carry out diagnosis with particular emphasis
on wiring and connector(s) between the A/C-ECU
and the interior air temperature sensor. If the con-
nectors 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 interior temperature sensor.
Malfunction of the A/C-ECU.
