STEP 1. Using diagnostic tool , check data list item 78: 
Clutch Switch.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to diagnostic tool , always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK"(OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting diagnostic tool .
(1) Connect diagnostic tool to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set diagnostic tool to the data reading mode for item 78, 

Clutch Switch.

• When the clutch pedal is depressed the display on diag-

nostic tool should read "ON".

• When the clutch pedal is released the display on diag-

nostic tool should read "OFF".

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"(OFF) position.

Q: Is the switch operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

− How to 

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions 

00-14

.

NO :  Then go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the clutch pedal adjustment and switch 
operation.
Refer to GROUP 21A, Clutch - On-vehicle Service - Clutch 
Pedal Check and Adjustment 

P.21A-2

Q: Is the pedal and switch adjustment correct?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Adjust the pedal or replace the switch if damaged or 

not operating correctly. Then go to Step 6.

STEP 3. Measure the clutch switch power supply voltage 
by backprobing the clutch switch connector C-07 (terminal 
1).
(1) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 1 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts) 

present?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO :  Then go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check harness connector C-07 at Clutch switch 
for damage, loose or corroded terminals .

Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Then go to Step 5.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

00E-2

. Then go to Step 6.

STEP 4. Measure the power supply voltage at ENGINE-ECU 
connector B-21 by using  ENGINE-ECU check harness 
special tool MB992044.
(1) Disconnect the all ENGINE-ECU connectors and connect  

ENGINE-ECU check harness special tool MB992044 
between the separated connectors.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 41 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts) 

present?
YES : Repair or replace the open or damaged wiring circuit 

between ENGINE-ECU connector B-21 and Clutch 
switch connector C-07. Then go to Step 8.

NO :  Check the connector B-21 for damage and ensure 

check harness connection t ENGINE-ECU is correct. 
If connection is correct and no power supply is 
present at terminal 41 of ENGIN-ECU then replace it. 
Then go to Step 7.

STEP 5. Measure the clutch switch power supply voltage 
by backprobing the clutch switch connector C-07 (terminal 
2).
(1) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 2 and ground by 

backprobing. while depressing the clutch pedal.

• When pedal is not depressed an (open circuit) , voltage 

should be battery positive voltage.

• When pedal is depressed an (closed circuit) , voltage 

should be less than 1.0 volt.

Q: Is there battery voltage at terminal No. 2 when pedal is 

depressed?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Replace the Clutch switch. Refer to GROUP 21A, 

Clutch - On-vehicle Service - Clutch Pedal Check and 
Adjustment 

P.21A-2

. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 6. Measure the resistance between Clutch switch 
connector C-07 (terminal No. 2) and earth.
(1) Measure the resitence between terminal No. 2 and ground.

• The resistance should measure less than 2 ohms.

Q: Is the measured resistance less than 2 ohms?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO :  Repair harness wire or connection between Clutch 

switch connector C-07 (terminal No. 2) and earth 
because of open circuit. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 7. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

Diagnostic Function 

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − 

P.13A-13

.

(2) Read the diagnostic trouble code.

Q: Is DTC P0830 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO :  The inspection is complete.
