2005 MITSUBISHI 380 ignition

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-53
STEP 5. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Check again if the DTC is set.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Check if the DTC is set.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the DTC set?
YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. On completion, verify that
the DTC is not reset.
NO : A poor connection, open circuit or other intermittent
malfunction is present in the CAN bus lines between
the multi center display and the ETACS-ECU (Refer
to GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent
Malfunction P.00-14).
DTC 021 (U1128): Failure Information on Combination Meter.
If DTC 021 (U1128) is set in the ETACS-ECU,
always diagnose the CAN main bus line.
Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the
communication circuit is normal.
The combination meter- related DTC may be set
when DTC 021 (U1128) is set. (For details refer
to GROUP 00, Affiliated DTC Reference Table
P.00-17.) Diagnose the combination meter first
when the combination meter- related DTC is set.
.
TROUBLE JUDGMENT
The ETACS-ECU receives combination
meter-related signal from the combination meter via
the CAN bus lines. If a fail-safe related data is con-
tained in the signal from the combination meter,
DTC 021 (U1128) will be stored.
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
Current trouble
The wiring harness wire or connectors may have
loose, corroded, or damage terminals, or termi-
nals pushed back in the connector, the Engine-
ECU, the combination meter or the ETACS-ECU
may be defective.
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-54
Past trouble
If DTC 021 (U1128) is stored as a past trouble,
carry out diagnosis with particular emphasis on
wiring and connector(s) in the CAN bus line
between the combination meter and the
ETACS-ECU, and the power supply system to the
combination meter. For diagnosis procedures,
refer to "How to cope with past trouble" (Refer to
GROUP 00, How to treat past trouble P.00-16).NOTE: You cannot find a past trouble, by the
MUT-III CAN bus diagnostics even if there is a
failure in CAN bus lines. In this case, refer to
GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent Mal-
function P.00-14 and check the CAN bus lines.
You can narrow down the possible cause of the
trouble by referring to the DTC, which is set
regarding the CAN communication-linked ECUs
(Refer to GROUP 54C, CAN Bus Line Diagnos-
tics P.54C-6).

STEP 3. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, read the
combination meter diagnostic trouble code.
Check whether the combination meter-related DTC is set.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Check whether the combination meter-related DTC is set.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the DTC set?
YES : Diagnose the combination meter (Refer to GROUP
54A, Diagnosis P.54A-46).
NO : Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Check again if the DTC is set.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Check if the DTC is set.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the DTC set?
YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. On completion, verify that
the DTC is not reset.
NO : There is an intermittent malfunction such as poor
engaged connector(s) or open circuit (Refer to
GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent
Malfunction P.00-14).

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-64
STEP 1. Verify SWS monitor kit MB991813 for proper
connection.
Q: Is SWS monitor kit MB991813 connected with the
column switch properly?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Connect SWS monitor kit MB991813 to the column
switch securely.
STEP 2. Verify the power supply circuit to the ETACS-ECU.
Q: Does the system communicate with diagnostic tool
MB991958 when the ignition switch is turned to the
"ON" position?
YES : Refer to Inspection Procedure A-3 "Communication
with the ETACS-ECU is not possible P.54B-74."
NO : Go to Step 3.
STEP 3. Check ETACS-ECU connectors C-218 and C-219
for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are ETACS-ECU connectors C-218 and C-219 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. Verify that the system should communicate
with the SWS monitor normally.

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

INSPECTION PROCEDURE A-2: Communication with the Column Switch (column-ECU) is not
Possible.
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 power supply to the column switch is pro-
vided by the battery and the ignition switch (IG1).
If the power supply system from the battery is
defective, the system operates by the power sup-
ply from the ignition switch (IG1).
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
The power supply circuit to the column switch (col-
umn-ECU) may be defective. If the battery power
supply circuit (terminal 1 of the column switch) to the
ECU is damaged, also check the power supply circuit
from the ignition switch (IG1) (terminal 9 of the col-
umn switch), and repair if necessary.
