Q: Is the check result satisfactory?

YES : A poor connection, open circuit or other intermittent 

malfunction is present in the CAN bus lines between 
the combination meter and the multi-centre display 
unit  (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to 
Cope with Intermittent Malfunction 

P.00-14

).

NO :  Replace multi-centre display unit  and then go to step 

5.

STEP 4. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Recheck if the DTC is set.

1. Erase the DTC.
2. Turn the ignition switch to "ON" position.
3. Check if the DTC is set.

Q: Is the check result satisfactory?

YES : A poor connection, open circuit or other intermittent 

malfunction is present in the CAN bus lines between 
the combination meter and the multi-centre display 
unit  (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to 
Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

CAUTION

If DTC 019 (U1109) is set in the ETACS-ECU, diag-
nose the CAN main bus line.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the 
communication circuit is normal.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The multi-centre display unit  is linked to CAN com-
munication lines to communicate with the combina-
tion meter and the Engine ECU, both of which have a 
terminator resistor.

.

DTC SET CONDITION

The multi-centre display unit  communicates with the 
ETACS-ECU via CAN bus lines. If it can not receive 
all the necessary signals from the ETACS-ECU, DTC 
019 (U1109) is set.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

Current trouble

• Connector(s) or wiring harness in the CAN bus 

lines between the ETACS-ECU and the 
multi-centre display unit , the power supply sys-
tem to the display unit, the display unit itself, or 
the ETACS-ECU may be defective.

Past trouble

• Carry out diagnosis with particular emphasis on 

connector(s) or wiring harness in the CAN bus 
lines between the ETACS-ECU and the 
multi-centre display unit , and the power supply 
system to the ETACS-ECU. For diagnosis proce-
dures, refer to "How to cope with past trouble" 
(Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshoot-
ing/Inspection Service Points 

P.00-14

).

NOTE: For a past trouble, you may not find it by 
the MUT-III CAN bus diagnostics even if there is 
any failure in CAN bus lines. In this case, refer to 
GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspec-
tion Service Points - How to Cope with Intermit-
tent Malfunction 

P.00-14

.) and check the CAN 

bus lines. You can narrow down the possible 
cause of the trouble by referring to the DTC, 
which is set regarding the CAN communica-
tion-linked ECUs (Refer to GROUP 54C, CAN 
bus line Diagnostics Flow 

P.54C-6

).

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-

90

• Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-

80

• The wiring harness or connectors may have 

loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or termi-
nals pushed back in the connector.

• Malfunction of ETACS-ECU

• Malfunction of multi-centre display unit 

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Diagnostic Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable

• MB991911: MUT-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with CAN 

communication system)

STEP 1. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, diagnose the 
CAN bus line.
Use diagnostic tool MB991958 to diagnose the CAN bus lines.
(1) Connect diagnostic tool MB991958 to the data link 

connector.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.

Q: Is the check result satisfactory?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Repair the CAN bus lines.   (Refer to GROUP 54C, 

Diagnosis-Can Bus Diagnostic Chart 

P.54C-15

). On 

completion, go to Step 6.

STEP 2. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, read ETACS-ECU 
diagnostic trouble code
Check that the ETACS-ECU sets a DTC.

Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Diagnose the SWS system by referring to GROUP 

54B, SWS Diagnosis 

− Diagnostic Trouble Code 

Chart 

P.54B-25

.

NO :  Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, read the 
diagnostic trouble code.
Check if a DTC, which relates to CAN communication-linked 
systems below, is set.
Combination meter

• DTC 019 (U1109): ETACS-ECU time-out

Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Go to Step 5.
