If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an
incorrect DTC may be set. Prior to this diagnosis,
always diagnose the CAN bus lines.

OPERATION
AWD-ECU detects a power supply voltage abnormal
drop, and if any abnormality occurs, it interrupts the
system.

ELECTRONIC CONTROL AWD

27C-31

DIAGNOSIS

DTC SET CONDITIONS
If the following conditions are met when the system is
activated, AWD-ECU gradually switches the control
from AWD to FWD, flashes the AWD/LOCK indicators
alternately, and sets the DTC No. C2100.

｠

IG1 voltage: Less than 8 V

｠

Voltage between the battery and ETACS-ECU:
Less than 8 V

｠

Engine speed: more than 1500 r/min

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

STEP 1. Battery voltage check
Check the battery voltage.

Q:Is the check result normal?

YES:

Go to Step 2.

NO:

Charge or replace the battery.

STEP 2. Voltage measurement at the ETACS-ECU
connector

(1)

Disconnect the C-309 ETACS-ECU connector.

C-309 harness
connector:
harness side

(2)

Measure the voltage between the C-309 harness side
connector terminal No. 1 and the body earth.

OK: Battery voltage

Q:Is the check result normal?

YES:

Go to Step 11.

NO:

Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Wiring harness check
Check the wiring harness between the battery and the C-309
ETACS-ECU connector for damage or other problem.

Q:Is the wiring harness in good condition?

YES:

Go to Step 4.

NO:

Repair damage or other problem in the wiring harness.

Then go to Step 11.

STEP 4. Scan tool MB991958 CAN bus diagnostics

ELECTRONIC CONTROL AWD

DIAGNOSIS

NO:

Repair the CAN bus line. (Refer to GROUP 54D - CAN

bus diagnostic chart P.54D-17.) On completion, go to
Step 5.

STEP 5. Check whether the DTC is reset after repairing the
CAN bus line.

(1)

Erase the DTC.

(2)

Turn the ignition switch from the LOCK (OFF) position to the
ON position.

(3)

Start the engine, and continue to run at 1500 r/min or more.

(4)

Check if the DTC is set.

Q:Is the DTC No. C2100 set?

YES:

Go to Step 6.

NO:

This diagnosis is complete.

STEP 6. Check the following connector:
Check the connectors below for improper engagement, terminal
damage or terminal drawn in the connector case.

Q:Are the connectors and terminals in good condition?

YES:

Go to Step 7.

NO:

Repair the connector(s) or terminal(s). Then go to

Step 11.

STEP 7. Wiring harness check
Check the wiring harness between the C-128 AWD-ECU
connector and the C-315 ETACS-ECU connector for damage or
other problem.

Q:Is the wiring harness in good condition?

YES:

Go to Step 8.

NO:

Repair damage or other problem in the wiring harness.

Then go to Step 11.

STEP 8. Voltage measurement at the AWD-ECU connector

(1)

Disconnect the C-128 AWD-ECU connector.

(2)

Measure the voltage between the C-128 wiring harness side
connector terminals No. 4 and No. 10.

OK: Battery voltage

Q:Is the check result normal?

YES:

Go to Step 9.

NO:

Go to Step 11.

STEP 9. Wiring harness check
Check the wiring harness between the C-128 AWD-ECU
connector (terminal No. 3) and the C-309 ETACS-ECU
connector (terminal No. 1) for damage or other problem.
