kit MB991813. For details on how to use the SWS
monitor, refer to "How to connect SWS monitor
P.54B-13."
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
At the same time that the turn-signal lamps are illu-
minated, the ETACS-ECU sends a signal to illumi-
nate the turn-signal lamp indicator via the CAN bus
line.
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the turn-signal indicator does not illuminate nor-
mally, connector(s), wiring harness in the CAN bus
lines, the ETACS-ECU or the combination meter may
be defective.
.
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
The combination meter may be defective
The ETACS-ECU may be defective

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,
