Inspection Procedure 17: The Cruise control switch (ACC distance switch) signal is not received.


caution
  • Before replacing the ECU, ensure that the power supply circuit, the earth circuit and the communication circuit are normal.
  • When the ETACS-ECU of vehicles without KOS is replaced, the encrypted code of the ignition key needs to be registered to the ETACS-ECU. (If the encrypted code is not registered, the engine cannot be started. Register the encrypted code as described in Immobilizer System - How to Register Key ID .)

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM


If there is an error to the cruise control switch (ACC distance switch) input signal, the cruise control switch (ACC distance switch) signal is no longer output to the communication line.

PROBABLE CAUSES



DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. Check the cruise control switch.


Refer to GROUP 17 - Cruise control system component check .

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 2

Replace the cruise control switch.

STEP 2. Resistance measurement at cruise control switch connector (earth terminal)


(1)Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2)Measure the resistance between the cruise control switch connector (earth terminal) and body earth.
OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 4

Go to Step 3

STEP 3. Check of open circuit in earth line between cruise control switch 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 clock spring, connector(s) or wiring harness.

STEP 4. Check of short to earth, and open circuit in DST+ line between cruise control switch connector and ETACS-ECU connector


Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 5

Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.

STEP 5. M.U.T.-III data list


Check the ETACS-ECU service data.
