DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tool:
MB991223: Harness Set
STEP 1. Check door lock key cylinder switch connector
E-14 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or
terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is door lock key cylinder switch connector E-14 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 systems described in "CIRCUIT
OPERATION" work normally, the input signal from the
door lock key cylinder switch should be normal.
STEP 2. Check the door lock key cylinder switch.
Disconnect door lock key cylinder switch connector E-14. Then
check continuity between the switch terminals.
Q: Is the door lock key cylinder switch in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Replace the door lock key cylinder switch. If the
systems described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" work
normally, the input signal from the door lock key
cylinder switch should be normal.

STEP 3. Check the ground circuit to the door lock key
cylinder switch. Measure the resistance at door lock key
cylinder switch connector E-14.
(1) Disconnect door lock key cylinder switch connector E-14
and measure the resistance available at the wiring harness
side of the connector.
(2) Measure the resistance value between terminal 2 and
ground.
The resistance should be 2 ohms or less.
Q: Is the measured resistance 2 ohms or less?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Go to Step 4.
STEP 4. Check the wiring harness between door lock key
cylinder switch connector E-14 (terminal 2) and ground.

NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-12 for loose, cor-
roded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector. If intermediate connector C-12 is damaged, repair or
replace the connector as described in GROUP 00E, Harness
Connector Inspection P.00E-2.
Q: Is the wiring harness between door lock key cylinder
switch connector E-14 (terminals 2) and ground 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
systems described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" work
normally, the input signal from the door lock key
cylinder switch should be normal.
STEP 5. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-217 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-217 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer
to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection
P.00E-2. If the systems described in "CIRCUIT
OPERATION" work normally, the input signal from the
door lock key cylinder switch should be normal.

STEP 6. Check the wiring harness between door lock key
cylinder switch connector E-14 (terminals 1 and 3) and
ETACS-ECU connector C-217 (terminals 25 and 42).
NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-12 for loose, cor-
roded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector. If intermediate connector C-12 is damaged, repair or
replace the connector as described in GROUP 00E, Harness

YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. If the systems described in
"CIRCUIT OPERATION" work normally, the input
signal from the door lock key cylinder switch should
be normal.
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
systems described in "CIRCUIT OPERATION" work
