STEP 1. Check the dome lamp.
If a door is opened while the dome lamp switch is at
"door-linked" position, the dome lamp should illuminate.
Q: Does the dome lamp illuminate normally?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Refer to Inspection Procedure K-1 "The dome lamp
do not illuminate and go out normally P.54B-359."
STEP 2. Check the adjustment function.
Q: Has the dome lamp delay-off time been set to other than
"0 second" by the adjustment function?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Set the dome lamp delay-off time to "0 second."

INSPECTION PROCEDURE K-4: Interior Light: The ignition key hole illumination lamp does not
illuminate or go out normally.
NOTE: This troubleshooting procedure requires the
use of diagnostic tool MB991958 and SWS monitor
kit MB991813. For details on how to use the SWS
monitor, refer to "How to connect SWS monitor
P.54B-13."
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
When the driver's door is opened with the ignition
switch at "ACC" position, the ETACS-ECU illumi-
nates the ignition key hole illumination lamp.
The ignition key hole illumination lamp goes out
in 30 seconds after the driver's door is closed.
The ignition key hole illumination lamp remains
illuminated for 30 seconds after the ignition key is
pulled out.
The ETACS-ECU operates the ignition key hole
illumination lamp according to the input signals
from the following switches:
Ignition switch (IG1): OFF
Key reminder switch: OFF
Interior lamp loaded signal: ON
Vehicle condition:
Ignition switch: "LOCK" (OFF) or "ACC" posi-
tion
Ignition key: Removed from the ignition key
cylinder
Driver’s door: Opened or closed
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the ignition key hole illumination lamp does not illu-
minate, the input circuits from the switches described
in "CIRCUIT OPERATION", the key reminder switch
(ignition key hole illumination lamp bulb) or the
ETACS-ECU may be defective.
.

STEP 11. Check the wiring harness between key reminder
switch connector C-310 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU
connector C-218 (terminal 63).
Q: Is the wiring harness between key reminder switch
connector C-310 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU connector
C-218 (terminal 63) in good condition?
YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the
connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary. Verify that
the ignition key hole illumination lamp illuminates
normally.
