INPUT SIGNAL PROCEDURES

SMART WIRING SYSTEM (SWS) NOT USING SWS MONITOR

54B-255

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

Input signal from the power window main switch is 
used in order to check the power window main 
switch and confirm how the system is communicating 
with the ETACS-ECU. If the communication line is 
defective, the power windows will not work normally.

POSSIBLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the power window main switch

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step 1. Check the operation by using the power 
window main switch.
Check if each window can be operated by means of 
the power window main switch.

Q: Can each power window be operated by means of 

the power window main switch?
YES : 

Go to Step 2.

NO : 

Refer to Inspection Procedure D-1 "Power 
windows do not work at all 

P.54B-72

."

Step 2. Connector check: C-228 ETACS-ECU 
connector and E-05 power window main switch 
connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 3.

NO : 

Repair the defective connector.

Step 3. Check the wiring harness between C-228 
ETACS-ECU connector terminal No.59 and E-05 
power window main switch connector terminal 
No.4.

NOTE: 

Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check interme-
diate connector C-17 <LH drive vehicles> or C-110 
<RH drive vehicles> and joint connector C-101, and 
repair if necessary.

• Check the communication lines for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 4.

NO : 

Repair the wiring harness.

Step 4. Replace the power window main switch, 
and then retest the system.
Replace the power window main switch, and check 
that the power window main switch signal is 
received.
(1) Replace the power window main switch.

(2) Check that the power window main switch signal 

is received.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

The procedure is complete.

NO : 

Replace the ETACS-ECU.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE L-8: The key reminder switch signal is not received.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the 
input signal circuit is normal.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

Input signal from the key reminder switch is used to 
operate the functions below. If the signal is abnormal, 
these functions will not work normally.

• Keyless entry system

• Room lamps

POSSIBLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the key reminder switch

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Damaged harness wires and connectors
