INPUT SIGNAL PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-408
INSPECTION PROCEDURE M-2: ETACS-ECU does not receive any signal from the ignition switch
(IG1).
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The ETACS-ECU operates the following equipment
or functions according to signal from the ignition
switch (IG1):
Light reminder tone alarm function
Seat belt tone alarm function
Door ajar warning buzzer
Turn-signal lamp buzzer
Multi center display operation tone multi center display (middle grade type)>
Power window timer function
Sunroof timer function
Headlamp automatic shutdown function
Turn-signal lamp
Dome lamp dimming function
Ignition key hole illumination lamp
If the power supply circuit from the battery to the
ETACS-ECU is open, this circuit is used as
backup circuit.
If the signal is not normal, the equipment or functions
described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" do not work
normally.
The ETACS-ECU receives information on the ignition
switch condition (IG1) from the combination meter
via CAN communication. If the ignition switch (IG1)
input signal is incorrect, refer to the Diagnostic Trou-
ble Code Chart P.54B-25.
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80
The wiring harness or connectors may have
loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or termi-
nals pushed back in the connector
The ETACS-ECU may be defective
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tool:
MB991223: Harness Set
STEP 1. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-219 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-219 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer
to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection
P.00E-2. If the functions described in "CIRCUIT
OPERATION" work normally, the input signal from the
ignition switch (IG1) should be normal.

SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-409
STEP 2. Check the ignition switch (IG1) line of the power
supply circuit to the ETACS-ECU. Measure the voltage at
ETACS-ECU connector C-219.
(1) Disconnect ETACS-ECU connector C-219 and measure the
voltage available at the junction block side of the connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 8 and ground.
The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts
(battery positive voltage).
Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery
positive voltage)?
YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. If the functions described
in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" work normally, the input
signal from the ignition switch (IG1) should be normal.
NO : Go to Step 3.
STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU
connector C-219 (terminal 8) and the ignition switch (IG1).

connect SWS monitor P.54B-13."
(2) Operate diagnostic tool MB991958 according to the
procedure below to display "Pulse check."
a. Select "Interactive Diagnosis."
b. Select "System select."
c. Select "SWS."
d. Select "Pulse Checking."
(3) Check that diagnostic tool MB991958 sounds.
Q: Does diagnostic tool MB991958 sound when each front
door is opened and closed?
When the front door (RH) is opened and closed,
diagnostic tool MB991958 does not sound. : Go to Step
2.
When the front door (LH) is opened and closed,
diagnostic tool MB991958 does not sound. : Go to Step
7.
When either front door is opened and closed, diagnostic
tool MB991958 sounds. : Replace the ETACS-ECU. If the
functions described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" work
normally, the input signal from the front door switches
should be normal.
STEP 2. Check front door switch (RH) connector D-34 for
loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is front door switch (RH) connector D-34 in good
condition?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer
to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection
P.00E-2. If the functions described in "CIRCUIT
OPERATION" work normally, the input signal from the
front door switch (RH) should be normal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE M-5: Column Switch: ETACS-ECU does not receive any signal from the
taillamp switch, the headlamp switch, the passing lamp switch, the dimmer switch or the turn-signal
lamp switch.
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."
