INPUT SIGNAL PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-405
INPUT SIGNAL PROCEDURES
INSPECTION PROCEDURE M-1: ETACS-ECU does not receive any signal from the ignition switch
(ACC).
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The ETACS-ECU operates the following equipment
and function(s) according to signal from the ignition
switch (ACC):
Windshield wiper and washer
Interior lamp automatic shutoff function
The ETACS-ECU receives information on the ignition
switch condition (ACC) from the middle-grade multi
center display unit via CAN communication. If the
ignition switch (ACC) input signal is incorrect, refer to
the appropriate Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart
P.54B-25.
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the signal is not normal, the equipment and func-
tion(s), which are described in "CIRCUIT OPERA-
TION", do not work normally.
.
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

DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tool:
MB991223: Harness Set
STEP 1. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-219 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-219 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer
to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection
P.00E-2. If the equipment described in "CIRCUIT
OPERATION" works normally, the input signal from
the ignition switch (ACC) should be normal.
STEP 2. Check the ignition switch (ACC) line of the power
supply circuit to the ETACS-ECU. Measure the voltage at
ETACS-ECU connector C-219.
(1) Disconnect ETACS-ECU connector C-219 and measure the
voltage available at the junction block side of the connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ACC" position.
(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 4 and ground.
The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts
(battery positive voltage).
Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery
positive voltage)?
YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. If the equipment described
in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" works normally, the input
signal from the ignition switch (ACC) should be
normal.
NO : Go to Step 3.

INPUT SIGNAL PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-407
STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between ETACS-ECU
connector C-219 (terminal 4) and the ignition switch (ACC).
NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-29 and junction
block connector C-214 for loose, corroded, or damaged termi-
nals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If intermediate
connector C-29 or junction block connector C-214 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 ETACS-ECU connector
C-219 (terminal 4) and ignition switch (ACC) 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. If the
equipment described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION"
works normally, the input signal from the ignition
switch (ACC) should be normal.

INPUT SIGNAL PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-408
INSPECTION PROCEDURE M-2: ETACS-ECU does not receive any signal from the ignition switch
(IG1).
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The ETACS-ECU operates the following equipment
or functions according to signal from the ignition
switch (IG1):
Light reminder tone alarm function
Seat belt tone alarm function
Door ajar warning buzzer
Turn-signal lamp buzzer
Multi center display operation tone multi center display (middle grade type)>
Power window timer function
