TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL) DIAGNOSIS
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)13C-26
COMMENT
This may be caused by faults in the CAN bus line,
the combination meter or the ABS/TCL-ECU.
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Malfunction of the combination meter.
Damaged harness or connector.
Malfunction of the ABS/TCL-ECU.
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
MB991958: Diagnostic Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)
MB991824: V.C.I.
MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable
MB991910: MUT-III Main Harness A
STEP 1. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, diagnose the
CAN bus line.
To prevent damage to diagnostic tool MB991958, always
turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting diagnostic tool
MB991958.
(1) Connect diagnostic tool MB991958 to the data link
connector. (Refer to P.13C-3).
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line. (Refer to P.13C-3).
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(5) Disconnect diagnostic tool MB991958.
Q: Is the check result satisfactory?
YES : Go to Step 2
NO : Repair the CAN bus lines. (Refer to GROUP 54C,
Diagnosis
Can Bus Diagnostic Chart P.54C-15).
Then go to Step 4.

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL) DIAGNOSIS
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)13C-34
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 6: TCL does not Operate.
NOTE: If the ABS-8 ECU or the active wheel
speed sensor are disconnected, or if the wiring is
an open/ short circuit, the ABS 8 ECU will shut
off power supply to the respective wheel speed
sensor. All other wheel speed sensors will oper-
ate normally. To restore the power supply, the
ignition switch must be turned to the "OFF" posi-
tion then to the "ON" position again.
.
COMMENT
The fail-safe function is probably cancelling TCL. In
this case, diagnostic tool MB991958 can be used to
retest each system by checking the diagnostic trou-
ble codes.
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST
LIKELY CAUSES FOR THIS CASE:)

AUTO-CRUISE CONTROL
ENGINE AND EMISSION CONTROL17-11
components, the Engine ECU estimates where the
problem may be occurring, and will set a diagnostic
trouble code. Diagnostic trouble codes cover the
auto-cruise control switch, stoplamp switch and
Engine ECU.
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING STRATEGYM1172002000484
Use these steps to plan your diagnostic strategy. If
you follow them carefully, you will check most of the
possible causes of an auto-cruise control system
problem.
1. Gather information from the customer.
2. Verify that the condition described by the
customer exists.
3. Check the vehicle for any auto-cruise control
system DTC. (Refer to P.17-11, Diagnostic
Function
How to Read and Erase Diagnostic
Trouble Codes).
4. If you can verify the condition but no auto-cruise
control system DTCs are set, the malfunction may
be intermittent. (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points
How
to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions P.00-14).5. If you can verify the condition but there are no
auto-cruise control system DTCs, or the system
cannot communicate with Diagnostic Tool
MB991958 (MUT-III sub assembly), and find the
fault. (Refer to P.17-53, Symptom Chart).
6. If there is an auto-cruise control system DTC,
record the number of the code, then erase the
code from Engine ECU memory using the
Diagnostic Tool MB991958 (MUT-III sub
assembly). (Refer to P.17-11, Diagnostic Function
How to Read and Erase Diagnostic Trouble
Codes).
7. Re-create the auto-cruise control system DTC set
conditions to see if the same Auto-cruise Control
System DTC will set again. (Refer to P.17-11,
Diagnostic Function
How to Read and Erase
Diagnostic Trouble Codes).
If the same Auto-cruise Control System DTC sets
again, perform the diagnostic procedures for the
set code. (Refer to P.17-14, Diagnostic Trouble
Code Chart).
