SYMPTOM PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-356
Interior lamp automatic-shutoff function
Illuminated interior lamps such as the front dome
lamp, etc. (all lamps using the dome lamp fuse as the
power supply) will automatically go off in the follow-
ing conditions to prevent the battery from discharging
as a result of forgetting to turn off the lamps or
incomplete closing of the door.
When the ignition switch is turned off and more
than 30 minutes pass with the interior lamp illumi-
nated, the interior lamps will go off automatically.
When the ignition switch is turned off and one of
the door switches remains open for 30 minutes
continuously, the interior lamps will go off auto-
matically.
NOTE: The interior lamp automatic shutoff function
can be customised on vehicles equipped with a multi
center display (middle grade type). Refer to
P.54B-486.
Ignition key hole illumination lamp function
The ignition key hole illumination lamp illuminates when the
driver's door is opened with the ignition switch off, and for 30
seconds after the driver's door is closed. It also illuminates for
30 seconds after the ignition key is pulled out. In any case, it
goes out when the ignition switch is turned on.
Door ajar indicator
The combination meter receives the signal sent from the
ETACS-ECU about whether each door is open or closed and
turns the door ajar indicator on and off. While the door ajar indi-
cator is illuminated, the door ajar warning function is activated
and the door ajar indicator flashes 4 times. If the door remains
open even after the 4 warning flashes, the door ajar indicator
will be illuminated again. And when the interior lamp auto-
matic-shutoff function is activated, the door ajar indicator is
extinguished.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE K-7: Interior Light: The seat belt warning lamp do not illuminate or go out
normally
NOTE: This troubleshooting procedure requires the
use of diagnostic tool MB991958 and SWS monitor
kit MB991813. For details on how to use the SWS
monitor, refer to "How to connect SWS monitor
P.54B-13."
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The combination meter and the ETACS-ECU illumi-
nates and flashes the seat belt warning lamp by
using the signal from the seat belt switch, the ignition
switch (IG1) and the vehicle speed signal.
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the seat belt warning lamp does not illuminate or
flash correctly, connector(s), wiring harness in the
CAN bus lines, the door switches, the ETACS-ECU,
or the combination meter may be defective.
.
