If the diagnosis
code No. U0141 is set, be sure to diagnose the CAN bus line.
When replacing the ECU, always check that the communication circuit is normal.
DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION
If the signal from ETACS-ECU cannot be received, the combination meter sets the diagnosis
code No. U0141.
JUDGMENT CRITERIA
With the statuses that the ignition switch is at ON position, system voltage is 10 -
16
V (data from ETACS-ECU), and there is no malfunction to the power supply fuse, or odometer value
is 80.5 km or more, if the communication with ETACS-ECU cannot be established for 2,500 ms or
more, the combination meter determines that a problem has occurred.
PROBABLE CAUSES
Malfunction of CAN bus line
Malfunction of combination meter
Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
STEP 1. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics
Use the 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 ).
STEP 2. M.U.T.-III other system diagnosis code
Check again if the diagnosis code is set to the ETACS-ECU.
Q.
Is the diagnosis code set?
Diagnose the ETACS-ECU (Refer to GROUP 54A -
ETACS-ECU -
Troubleshooting ).
Go to Step 3.
STEP 3. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.
Check again if the diagnosis code is set to the combination meter.
(1)Erase the diagnosis code.
(2)Turn the ignition switch from "LOCK" (OFF) position to "ON" position.
(3)Check if diagnosis code is set.
Q.
Is the diagnosis code set?
Replace the combination meter.
The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 -
