SYMPTOM PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-150
Lowers the passenger’s power window
When the passenger’s power window switch on the power win-
dow main switch is pushed down, the system energizes its
respective power window motor, and then the passenger’s win-
dow glass lowers.
POWER WINDOW SUB SWITCH FUNCTION
The sub switches are located on the passenger’s doors.
Raises the passenger’s power window
When the power window sub switch is pulled up, the system
energizes its respective power window motor, and then the
passenger’s window glass rises.
Lowers the passenger’s power window
When the power window sub switch is pushed down, the sys-
tem energizes its respective power window motor, and then the
passenger’s window glass lowers.
Power window timer function
Even after the ignition is switched off, the ETACS-ECU keeps
the power window relay activated for approximately 30 sec-
onds, enabling raising and lowering of the power windows by
using the power window switches. After approximately 30 sec-
onds, the power window relay is deactivated.
During this timed operation, if the driver or passenger doors are
opened, the power window relay is deactivated from that
moment.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE D-1: Power Windows: Power windows do not work at all.
NOTE: This troubleshooting procedure requires use
of diagnostic tool MB991958 and SWS monitor kit
MB991813. For details on how to use the SWS mon-
itor, refer to "How to connect SWS monitor
P.54B-13."
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The ETACS-ECU turns on the power window relay
(installed on the junction block) to activate the power
windows when the ignition switch (IG1) is turned to
the "ON" position.
.
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 power window relay may be defective
The power window main switch may be defective
The ETACS-ECU may be defective

MB991822: Test Probe Harness
STEP 1. Use diagnostic tool MB991958 to select "ECU
COMM Check" on the SWS monitor display.
Check the ETACS-ECU.
To prevent damage to diagnostic tool MB991958, always
turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting diagnostic tool
MB991958. Connect special tool MB991910 before con-
necting special tool MB991812. Be sure to connect special
tool MB991806 after turning on special tool MB991824.
(1) Connect the special tool. Refer to "How to connect SWS
monitor P.54B-13."
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Operate the diagnostic tool MB991958 according to the
procedure below to display "ECU COMM Check."
a. Select "Interactive Diagnosis."
b. Select "System Select."
c. Select "SWS."
d. Select "SWS MONITOR."
e. Select "ECU COMM Check."
(4) diagnostic tool MB991958 should show "OK" on the "ECU
COMM Check" menu for the "ETACS ECU" menu.
Q: Is "OK" displayed for the "ETACS ECU" menu?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Refer to Inspection Procedure A-3 "Communication
with the ETACS-ECU is not possible P.54B-74."

STEP 2. Check the input signal by using "DATA LIST"
menu of the SWS monitor.
Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position before checking
input signals from the ignition switch (IG1).
(1) Operate the diagnostic tool MB991958 according to the
procedure below to display "ETACS ECU."
a. Select "Interactive Diagnosis."
b. Select "System Select."
c. Select "SWS."
d. Select "SWS MONITOR."
e. Select "Data List."
f. Select "ETACS ECU."
(2) Check that normal conditions are displayed for the items
described in the table below.
Q: Does the diagnostic tool MB991958 display "IG SW
(IG1)" as normal condition?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Refer to Inspection Procedure M-2 "ETACS-ECU
does not receive any signal from the ignition switch
(IG1) P.54B-408."
STEP 3. Check power window relay connector C-203 for
loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is power window relay connector C-203 in good
condition?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer
to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection
P.00E-2. The power windows function should now
work normally. ITEM NO. ITEM NAME NORMAL CONDITION

Q: Is the wiring harness between power window main
switch connector E-04 (terminal 2) and ground 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. The power
windows function should now work normally.
STEP 12. Check the battery power supply circuit to the
power window main switch. Measure the voltage at power
window main switch connector E-04.
