procedure below to display "Pulse check."
a. Select "Interactive Diagnosis."
b. Select "System select."
c. Select "SWS."
d. Select "Pulse Checking."
(3) Push the transmitter "TRUNK" button.
(4) Check that diagnostic tool MB991958 sounds
Q: When the transmitter "TRUNK" button is turned ON,
does diagnostic tool MB991958 sound?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Refer to Inspection Procedure N-8 "ETACS-ECU
does not receive any signal from the lock, unlock,
trunk or panic switch P.54B-472."

STEP 3. Check trunk lid latch assembly connector F-05
and ETACS-ECU connector C-217 for loose, corroded or
damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector.
Q: Is trunk lid latch assembly connector F-05 and
ETACS-ECU connector C-217 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. Check that the headlamps illuminate
normally.
STEP 4. Check the trunk lid latch assembly.
Remove the trunk lid latch assembly. Refer to GROUP 42,
Trunk lid, Trunk lid latch inspection P.42-65.
Q: Does the windshield washer motor operate normally?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Replace the trunk lid latch assembly. Verify that the
windshield washer works normally.

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.
