Code No.C1707 Implausible coding data



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 .)

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION


When the LDW-ECU receives incorrect vehicle information from the ETACS-ECU, diagnosis code No. C1707 will be stored.

JUDGEMENT CRITERIA


When the LDW-ECU detects the ETACS-ECU coding data below consecutively five times (for 2.5 seconds or more), the LDW-ECU will determines that the system is defective.


PROBABLE CAUSES




DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics


Use M.U.T.-III to diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 2

Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C - Troubleshooting ). On completion, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. M.U.T.-III other system diagnosis code


Check if the ETACS diagnosis code is set.

Q. Is the diagnosis code set?

Perform troubleshooting for ETACS (Refer to GROUP 54A - ETACS - Troubleshooting ).

Go to Step 3

STEP 3. Check the coding data in the ETACS-ECU.


(1)Use M.U.T.-III to read out the coding data in ETACS-ECU. (Refer to GROUP 00 - Precautions before Service - Coding Reference Table .)
(2)Check the followings:

  • "LDW equipment status" is set to a correct value ("Type B").
  • "LDW Parameter status" is set to a correct value ("Type 5" or "Type 6").
  • "LDW production setup status" is set to a correct value ("Type B").

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 4

Replace with the coded ETACS-ECU, and then go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.


Recheck if the diagnosis code No. C1707 is set.
(1)Erase the diagnosis code.
(2)Turn the ignition switch from the LOCK (OFF) position to the ON position.
(3)Check if the diagnosis code is set.

Q. Is the diagnosis code set?

Replace the LDW-ECU.

Intermittent malfunction is suspected (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
