STEP 5. Check the wiring harness between trunk lid latch
assembly connector F-05 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU
connector C-217.
NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-28 for loose, cor-
roded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector. If intermediate connector C-28 is damaged, repair or
replace the damaged component(s) as described in GROUP
00E, Harness Connector Inspection P.00E-2.
Q: Is the wiring harness between trunk lid latch assembly
connector F-05 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU connector
C-217 in good condition?
YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. All the doors can be locked
or unlocked by means of the transmitter.
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 system
should communicate with the sunroof-ECU normally.
