SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

SMART WIRING SYSTEM (SWS) NOT USING SWS MONITOR

54B-104

INSPECTION PROCEDURE F-5: The intermittent wiper interval can not be adjusted by operating the 
windshield intermittent wiper volume control.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the 
input and output signal circuits are normal.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

The column switch or the ETACS-ECU may be 
defective.

POSSIBLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the column switch

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

Step 1. Pulse check
Check the input signals below which are related to 
the windshield intermittent wiper function.

OK: The M.U.T.-III sounds or the voltmeter 
needle fluctuates.

Q: Are the check result normal?

All the signals are received normally. : 

Go to Step 

2.

The ignition switch (IG1) signal is not received. : 

Refer to Inspection Procedure N-1 "The 
ignition switch (ACC) signal is not received 

P.54B-200

."

The windshield wiper volume signal is not 
received. : 

Refer to Inspection Procedure N-6 

"The windshield wiper volume signal is not 
received 

P.54B-208

."

Step 2. Retest the system.
Check that the windshield intermittent wiper interval 
can be adjusted by operating the windshield intermit-
tent wiper volume control.

OK: The intermittent wiper interval is 
changed as the intermittent wiper volume is 
rotated.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

The trouble can be an intermittent 

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 

− How to 

use Troubleshooting/inspection Service 
Points 

− How to Cope with Intermittent 

Malfunction 

P.00-13

).

NO : 

Replace the ETACS-ECU.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE F-6: The intermittent wiper interval is not changed according to the 
vehicle speed.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the 
input and output signal circuits are normal.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

The ETACS-ECU calculates the intermittent wiper 
interval according to the vehicle speed signal which 
is sent by the engine-CVT-ECU.
If the intermittent wiper interval does not depend on 
the vehicle speed, the input circuit of the vehicle 
speed signal and the ETACS-ECU may be defective.

POSSIBLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

Step 1. Check the operation by operating the 
intermittent wiper volume.
Check that the windshield intermittent wiper interval 
can be adjusted by operating the windshield intermit-
tent wiper volume control.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 2.

NO : 

Refer to Inspection Procedure F-5 "The 
intermittent wiper interval can not be 
adjusted by operating the windshield 
intermittent wiper volume control 

P.54B-104

."

Step 2. 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?

YES : 

Go to Step 3.

NO : 

Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 
54D, Diagnosis 

P.54D-13

).

Step 3. M.U.T.-III other system diagnosis code
Check whether the combination meter-related diag-
nosis code is set.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES : 

Diagnose the combination meter (Refer to 

GROUP 54A 

− Troubleshooting 

P.54A-31

).

NO : 

Go to Step 4.

Step 4. Customize function by using the SWS 
monitor.
Use the SWS monitor customise function to confirm 
that "SPEED SEN WIP" is set to "W.FUNCTION".

CAUTION

The SWS monitor must be used in order to con-
firm and change that setting. Use the SWS moni-
tor to confirm and/or change the customised 
function.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 5.

NO : 

Use the SWS monitor customise function to 
set the "SPEED SEN WIP" to 
"W.FUNCTION" (Refer to GROUP 54C 

− 

Customize function 

P.54C-240

).

Step 5. Retest the system.
(1) Replace the ETACS-ECU.
(2) Check that the vehicle speed-dependent 

intermittent wiper system should work normally.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

The trouble can be an intermittent 

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 

− How to 

use Troubleshooting/inspection Service 
Points 

− How to Cope with Intermittent 

Malfunction 

P.00-13

).

NO : 

Replace the combination meter.
