turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting Diagnostic Tool
MB991958.
(1) Connect Diagnostic Tool MB991958. Refer to "How to
connect SWS monitor P.54B-13."
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C,

INTERIOR LAMP
GENERAL DESCRIPTION CONCERNING THE INTERIOR LAMPM1549021800236
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80The following ECUs affect the functions and control
of the interior lamps.
Interior lamp control function
The ETACS-ECU controls the interior lamps by turn-
ing them on and off in the following way:
When a door is opened with the ignition switch
off, the interior lamps up to a luminance of 100
percent. When a door is closed, the interior lamps
dims at a luminance of 65 percent, and goes off
30 seconds later. However if the ignition switch is
turned ON or if a door is locked while the interior
lamps is dimming, the dome lamp will go off at
that point.
When a door is opened with the ignition switch
ON, the interior lamps up at a luminance of 100
percent. When a door is closed, the interior lamps
go off.
When the ignition key is removed with all doors
closed, the interior lamps up at a luminance of
100 percent, and goes off 30 seconds later. How-
ever if the ignition key is inserted again or if a
door is locked while the interior lamps is lighting,
the interior lamps will go off at that point.
To check keyless entry operations more easily,
the interior lamps is flashed once when the doors
are locked. When the doors are unlocked, the
interior lamps at a luminance of 100 percent, and
go off 15 seconds later.
NOTE: The dimmer function can be customised on
vehicles equipped with a multi center display (middle
grade type). Refer to P.54B-486.
NOTE: The dotted lines indicate that lighting mode
when the ignition switch is turned ON, door is locked,
or any door is opened during the timer illumination
time. FUNCTION CONTROL ECU
