CAUTION

During diagnosis, a diagnosis code associated 
with other system may be set when the ignition 
switch is turned on with connector(s) discon-
nected. On completion, confirm all systems for 
diagnosis code(s). If diagnosis code(s) are set, 
erase them all.

WARNING

Since the radiator fan rotates during CAN 
bus line diagnostics, make sure that no one 
is servicing the engine compartment before 
diagnosing the CAN bus line. Since the CAN 
communication stops when diagnosing the 
CAN bus line, the ETACS-ECU detects the 
time-out of the engine-ECU, and activates 
the radiator fan to prevent overheating as 
fail-safe. 

Troubleshooting of electronic control systems for 
which the M.U.T.-III can be used follows the basic 
outline described below. Even in systems for which 
the M.U.T.-III cannot be used, some of these sys-
tems still follow this outline.

1. STANDARD FLOW OF DIAGNOSIS TROUBLESHOOTING

Troubleshooting sections are based on the diagnostic flow as below. If the diagnostic flow is different from 
that given below, or if additional explanation is required, the details of such differences or additions will also 
be listed.

DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION

M1001013400917

The diagnosis function retrieves diagnosis code and 
service data by M.U.T.-III and enables the perform-
ance of the actuator test.

• DIAGNOSIS CODE

• Data list output

• Actuator test

• Diagnosis deletion using M.U.T.-III

• Freeze frame data

• Status indication by diagnosis code

• ECU information display

NOTE: If a diagnosis code is set, the "status indica-
tion by diagnosis code" informs users whether a 
mechanical problem currently exists (current trouble) 
or whether it existed before but normal operation has 
been restored (past trouble).

 HOW TO READ DIAGNOSIS CODE

CAUTION

Before connecting or disconnecting the M.U.T.-
III, turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) 
position.
