Code No. C1608: EEPROM fail
caution |
- If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect diagnosis code may be set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C - Troubleshooting
).
- Whenever ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus lines are normal.
- When the hydraulic unit assembly (integrated with ASTC-ECU) is replaced, always carry out the calibration of the steering wheel sensor and the G sensor (Refer to
).
|
OPERATION
The ASTC-ECU stores the vehicle information such as a sensor learnt value in the integrated EEPROM *.
note |
*: EEPROM (Electrically Erasable and Programmable Read Only Memory)
|
DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS
This code is set under the cases below:
- The vehicle information such as a sensor learnt value is unfeasible.
PROBABLE CAUSES
- Removal of ASTC-ECU connector or battery terminal with the ignition switch ON
- Battery failure
- Battery terminal looseness
- Defective battery charger
- Damaged harness wires and connectors
- Malfunction of the hydraulic unit assembly (integrated with ASTC-ECU)
|
STEP 1. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnosis
|
|
Use the M.U.T.-III to diagnose the CAN bus lines.
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
Go to Step 3.
|
|
|
|
Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C - Troubleshooting ). On completion, go to Step 2.
|
|
|
|
STEP 2. Diagnosis code recheck after resetting CAN bus lines
|
|
Q.
Is diagnosis code No. C1608 set?
|
|
Go to Step 3.
|
|
|
|
This diagnosis is complete.
|
|
|
|
STEP 3. Check the battery.
|
|
Refer to GROUP 54A - Battery Test .
|
|
Q.
Is the battery in good condition?
|
|
Go to Step 4.
|
|
|
|
Charge or replace the battery. Then go to Step 5.
|
|
|
|
STEP 4. Check the charging system.
|
|
Refer to GROUP 16 - Charging System .
|
|
Q.
Is the charging system in good condition?
|
|
Go to Step 5.
|
|
|
|
Repair or replace the charging system component(s). Then go to Step 5.
|
|
|
|
STEP 5. Measure the resistance at the ASTC-ECU connector.
|
|
(1)Connector check: the ASTC-ECU connector, the fuses (relay box) and the fusible links
|
|
(2)Disconnect the ASTC-ECU connector.
|
|
(3)Measure the resistance between +BV terminal and body earth. OK: No continuity
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
Go to Step 6.
|
|
|
|
The power supply circuit may be short. Repair the wiring harness wires or connectors between the ACS-ECU connector +BV terminal and the fusible links, the fuse (relay box) or the fusible links. Then go to Step 9.
|
|
|
|
STEP 6. Measure the resistance at the ASTC-ECU connector.
|
|
(1)Connector check: the ASTC-ECU connector and the fusible links
|
|
(2)Disconnect the ASTC-ECU connector and remove the fusible links.
|
|
(3)Measure the resistance between +BM terminal and body earth. OK: No continuity
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
Go to Step 7.
|
|
|
|
The power supply circuit may be short. Repair the wiring harness wires or connectors between the ACS-ECU connector +BM terminal and the fusible links, or the fusible links. Then go to Step 9.
|
|
|
|
STEP 7. Measure the voltage at the ASTC-ECU connector.
|
|
(1)Disconnect the ASTC-ECU connector.
|
|
(2)Measure the voltage between +BV terminal and body earth. OK: Battery voltage
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
Go to Step 8.
|
|
|
|
The power supply circuit may be open. Repair the wiring harness wires or connectors between the ACS-ECU connector +BV terminal and the fusible links, the fuse (relay box) or the fusible links. Then go to Step 9.
|
|
|
|
STEP 8. Measure the voltage at the ASTC-ECU connector.
|
|
(1)Disconnect the ASTC-ECU connector.
|
|
(2)Measure the voltage between +BM terminal and body earth. OK: Battery voltage
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
Go to Step 9.
|
|
|
|
The power supply circuit may be open. Repair the wiring harness wires or connectors between the ACS-ECU connector +BM terminal and the fusible links, or the fusible links. Then go to Step 9.
|
|
|
|
STEP 9. Check whether the diagnosis code is set again.
|
|
Check again if the diagnosis code is set.
|
|
(1)Erase the set diagnosis code.
|
|
(2)Ignition switch: "LOCK" (OFF)
|
|
Q.
Is diagnosis code No. C1608 set?
|
|
Replace the hydraulic unit assembly (integrated with ASTC-ECU) (Refer to ).
|
|
|
|
The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
