STEP 3. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, read the 
diagnostic trouble code related to the other system.
Check if a DTC, which relates to CAN communication-linked 
systems below, is set.
ABS-ECU

• DTC U1101: A/T-ECU time-out <vehicles with TCL>

Combination meter

• DTC 012 (U1101): A/T-ECU time-out

ETACS-ECU

• DTC 012 (U1101): A/T-ECU time-out

Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Go to Step 5.

STEP 4. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Recheck if the DTC is set.

1. Erase the DTC.
2. Turn the ignition switch to "ON" position.
3. Check if the DTC is set.

Q: Is the check result satisfactory?

YES : A poor connection, open circuit or other intermittent 

malfunction is present in the CAN bus lines between 
the A/T-ECU and the middle-grade multi-centre 
display unit (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to 
Cope with Intermittent Malfunction 

P.00-14

).

NO :  Replace A/T-ECU and then go to step 6.

STEP 5. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Recheck if the DTC is set.

1. Erase the DTC.
2. Turn the ignition switch to "ON" position.
3. Check if the DTC is set.

Q: Is the check result satisfactory?

YES : A poor connection, open circuit or other intermittent 

malfunction is present in the CAN bus lines between 
the A/T-ECU and the middle-grade multi-centre 
display unit (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to 
Cope with Intermittent Malfunction 

P.00-14

).

NO :  Replace multi-centre display unit  and then go to step 

6.

DTC 013  (U1110): A/C-ECU Time-out

CAUTION

If DTC 013  (U1110) is set in the multi-centre dis-
play, always diagnose the CAN bus lines.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the 
communication circuit is normal.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The multi-centre display unit communicates with the 
A/C-ECU via CAN bus lines.

.

DTC SET CONDITION

When the multi-centre display unit can not receives 
necessary signals from the A/C-ECU via CAN bus 
lines. If the display unit can not receives the neces-
sary A/C-ECU signals, DTC 013  (U1110) will be set.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

CAUTION

If the ignition switch is turned to the ON position 
without starting the engine, DTC (past trouble) 
011, 012 and 014 (U1108) may be set to the com-
bination meter (incorporating meter-ECU) after 
three minutes.

Current trouble

• Connector(s) or wiring harness in the CAN bus 

lines between the A/C-ECU and the multi-centre 
display unit, the power supply system to the dis-
play unit, the display unit itself, or the A/C-ECU 
may be defective.

Past trouble

• Carry out diagnosis with  particular emphasis on 

connector(s) or wiring harness in the CAN bus 
lines between the A/C-ECU and the multi-centre 
display unit , and the power supply system to the 
A/C-ECU. For diagnosis procedures, refer to 
"How to cope with past trouble" (Refer to GROUP 
00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Ser-
vice Points 

P.00-14

).

NOTE: For a past trouble, you may not find it by 
the MUT-III CAN bus diagnostics even if there is 
any failure in CAN bus lines. In this case, refer to 
GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspec-
tion Service Points - How to Cope with Intermit-
tent Malfunction 

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 communica-
tion-linked ECUs (Refer to GROUP 54C, CAN 
bus line Diagnostics Flow 

P.54C-6

).

.

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.

• Malfunction of A/C-ECU

• Malfunction of multi-centre display unit 

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Diagnostic Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable

• MB991911: MUT-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with CAN
