Step 2. Resistance measurement at the B-135 
column switch connector.

(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the 

column switch side.

(2) Resistance between B-135 column switch 

connector terminal No.6 and body earth

OK: The resistance should rise from 0 to 
1 k

Ω when the windshield intermittent 

wiper volume is rotated from "Fast" to 
"Slow".

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 3.

NO : 

Replace the column switch.

Step 3. Connector check: B-133 ETACS-ECU 
connector.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 4.

NO : 

Repair the defective connector.

Step 4. Check the wiring harness between B-135 
column switch connector terminal No.6 to B-133 
ETACS-ECU connector terminal No.73.

• Check the input line for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 5.

NO : 

Repair the wiring harness.

Step 5. ETACS ANALOG data by using the SWS 
monitor.
Check the input signal from the windshield intermit-
tent wiper volume.

• Ignition switch: ACC

• Wiper switch: INT

OK: The display will be changed as the inter-
mittent 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.

INPUT SIGNAL PROCEDURES

SMART WIRING SYSTEM (SWS) USING SWS MONITOR

54C-213

Inspection Procedure N-7: The key reminder switch signal is not received.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the 
input signal circuit is normal.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

Input signal from the key reminder switch is used to 
operate the functions below. If the signal is abnormal, 
these functions will not work normally.

• Keyless entry system

• Ignition key cylinder illumination lamp

• Room lamp

POSSIBLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the key reminder switch

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

Step 1. Connector check: B-140 key reminder 
switch connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 2.

NO : 

Repair the defective connector.

Step 2. Check the key reminder switch.
Refer to GROUP 54A 

− Ignition switch 

P.54A-27

.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 3.

NO : 

Replace the key reminder switch.

Step 3. Resistance measurement at the B-140 key 
reminder switch connector.

(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the 

wiring harness side.

(2) Resistance between B-140 key reminder switch 

connector terminal No.4 and body earth

OK: Continuity exists (2 

Ω or less)

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 5.

NO : 

Go to Step 4.

Step 4. Check the wiring harness between B-140 
key reminder switch connector terminal No.4 to 
the body earth.

NOTE: 

Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check joint 
connector B-25, and repair if necessary.

• Check the earth wires for open circuit.

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 : 

Repair the wiring harness.

Step 5. Connector check: B-133 ETACS-ECU 
connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 6.

NO : 

Repair the defective connector.
