Inspection Procedure 1 [Vehicles With M/T]




Inspection Procedure 1: The Automatic Anti-Dazzling Function does not Work normally. [Vehicles with M/T]


























COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

When the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position, the dimming function activates automatically. If the dimming function does not work normally, the interior mirror, ignition switch circuit system, input circuit system of the backup light switch may be defective.

PROBABLE CAUSES

- Damaged harness wires and connectors
- Malfunction of the backup light switch
- Malfunction of the interior mirror
- Malfunction of the ignition switch

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

Q. Is the check result normal?

YES Go to Step 4.
NO Refer to Inspection Procedure 2.
STEP 4. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list.

Check if ETACS-ECU related signal is set.

- Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
- Move the shift lever to the "R" (Reverse) position.





OK: Normal condition is displayed.

Q. Is the check result normal?

YES Go to Step 5.
NO Go to Step 9.
STEP 5. Check the interior mirror connector D-47 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.

STEP 6. Check the wiring harness between interior mirror connector D-47 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU connector C-315 (terminal 9).

- Check the power supply lines (battery power supply) for open circuit and short circuit.

NOTE:
Also check intermediate connector C-133 for loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If intermediate connector C-133 is damaged, repair or replace the connector as described in Harness Connector Inspection.

Q. Is the wiring harness between interior mirror connector D-47 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU connector C-315 (terminal 9) in good condition?

YES Go to Step 7.
NO Repair the wiring harness.
STEP 7. Check the ground circuit to the interior mirror. Measure the resistance at interior mirror connector D-47 (terminal 2).

(1)Disconnect interior mirror connector D-47, and measure the resistance available at the wiring harness side of the connector.

(2)Measure the resistance between D-47 (terminal 2) and ground.
OK: The resistance should be 2ohms or less.

Q. Is the measured resistance 2ohms or less?

YES Go to Step 14.
NO Go to Step 8.
STEP 8. Check the wiring harness between interior mirror connector D-47 (terminal 2) and ground.

- Check the ground wire for open circuit.
