SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

SMART WIRING SYSTEM (SWS) NOT USING SWS MONITOR

54B-40

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

Inspection Procedure A-1: Communication with the M.U.T.-III is not possible.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the 
power supply circuit, the earth circuit and the 
communication circuit are normal.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

It is suspected that the power supply circuit to the 
ETACS-ECU is defective, or the wiring harness 
between the diagnosis connector and the 
ETACS-ECU or their connector(s) is damaged.
NOTE: If the wiring harness between the 
ETACS-ECU and body earth is defective, also check 
B-134 ETACS-ECU connector terminal No.2, and 
repair if necessary.

POSSIBLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step 1. Check that the M.U.T.-III communicates 
with the other systems.
Use the M.U.T.-III to confirm that it communicates 
with the engine-ECU.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 2.

NO : 

Diagnose the system, which cannot 
communicate with the M.U.T.-III.

Step 2. Check that the M.U.T.-III can communicate 
with the system.
When the ignition switch is turned ON, check if the 
M.U.T.-III can communicate with the system.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Refer to Inspection Procedure A-2 "When 

the ignition switch is at the LOCK (OFF) 
position, the functions do not work normally. 
Check the battery power supply circuit to 
the ETACS-ECU 

P.54B-43

."

NO : 

Go to Step 3.

Step 3. Connector check: B-133 ETACS-ECU 
connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 4.

NO : 

Repair the defective connector.

Step 4. Resistance measurement at the B-133 
ETACS-ECU connector.

(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the 

junction block side.

(2) Resistance between B-133 ETACS-ECU 

connector terminal No.70 and body earth

OK: Continuity exists (2 

Ω or less)

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 6.

NO : 

Go to Step 5.

Step 5. Check the wiring harness between B-133 
ETACS-ECU connector terminal No.70 and body 
earth.

• Check the earth wires for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

The trouble can be an intermittent 

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 

− How to 

use Troubleshooting/inspection Service 
Points 

− How to Cope with Intermittent 

Malfunction 

P.00-13

).

NO : 

Repair the wiring harness.

Step 6. Connector check: B-32 diagnosis 
connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 7.

NO : 

Repair the defective connector.

Step 7. Check the wiring harness from B-133 
ETACS-ECU connector terminal Nos. 52 and 69 to 
B-32 diagnosis connector terminal Nos. 9 and 1.

• Check the communication lines for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 8.

NO : 

Repair the wiring harness.

Step 8. Check the wiring harness from B-133 
ETACS-ECU connector terminal No.54 to B-32 
diagnosis connector terminal No.3.

• Check the communication lines for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 9.

NO : 

Repair the wiring harness.

Step 9. Retest the system.
Check whether the communication with the M.U.T.-III 
is possible.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

The trouble can be an intermittent 

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 

− How to 

use Troubleshooting/inspection Service 
Points 

− How to Cope with Intermittent 

Malfunction 

P.00-13

).

NO : 

Replace the ETACS-ECU.

Inspection Procedure A-2: When the ignition switch is at the LOCK (OFF) position, the functions do 
not work normally. Check the battery power supply circuit to the ETACS-ECU.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the 
power supply circuit and the earth circuit are nor-
mal.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

If this circuit is defective and the ignition switch is at 
the LOCK (OFF) position, the ETACS-ECU does not 
work. In this case, the functions below will be sus-
pended.

• Lamp reminder function

• Keyless entry system

• Ignition key cylinder illumination lamp

However, when the ignition switch is at the ON posi-
tion, the functions below will work.

• Reading diagnosis code and checking input sig-

nal by M.U.T.-III.

• Central door locking

• Headlamp and tail lamp

• Hazard warning lamp

• Interior lamps

POSSIBLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Damaged harness wires and connectors
