Inspection Procedure A-1: Check the battery power supply circuit to the ETACS-ECU.



caution Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the power supply circuit and the earthing circuit are normal.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM


If the ETACS-ECU functions do not work at all, the ETACS-ECU power supply system, earth system, or ETACS-ECU may have a problem.

PROBABLE CAUSES




DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. Resistance measurement at ETACS-ECU connector (EARTH, SGND terminal)


(1)Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2)Measure the resistance between the ETACS-ECU connector (EARTH terminal) and body earth.
OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)
(3)Measure the resistance between the ETACS-ECU connector (SGND terminal) and body earth.
OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 3.
Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check of open circuit in EARTH, SGND line between ETACS-ECU connector and body earth


Q. Is the check result normal?

Intermittent malfunction is suspected (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.

STEP 3. Voltage measurement at ETACS-ECU connector (ETACS +B terminal)


(1)Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2)Check the voltage between the ETACS-ECU connector (ETACS +B terminal) and body earth.
OK: System voltage

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 5.
Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check of short to power supply, short to earth, and open circuit in ETACS +B line between fusible link and ETACS-ECU connector


Q. Is the check result normal?

Intermittent malfunction is suspected (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.

STEP 5. Retest the system.


Check that the ETACS-ECU functions work normally.

Q. Is the check result satisfactory?

The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction )
Replace the ETACS-ECU (Refer to ).
