.

FUNCTION

If a short to ground is present in the CAN-C lines, this 
diagnosis result will be set.

.

TROUBLE JUDGEMENT CONDITIONS

If DTC U1120 is set, the ETACS-ECU determines 
that there is a failure.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Malfunction of the connector (short to ground 

inside connector)

• Malfunction of the wiring harness (short to ground 

in the CAN-C main or sub bus lines)

• Malfunction of the ECU (ETACS-ECU, or ECUs 

on CAN-C lines failed)

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991223: Harness Set

• MB992006: Extra Fine Probe

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

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

• MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable

• MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A

• MB992110: Power plant ECU check harness

• MB991997: ASC Check Harness

STEP 1. Check the wiring harness between joint connector 
(CAN2) C-104 and steering wheel sensor connector C-209 
for a short to ground. Measure the resistance at joint 
connector (CAN2) C-104.

CAUTION

Disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer 
to 

P.54C-7

.

CAUTION

A digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to 

P.54C-7

.

CAUTION

The test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to 

P.54C-7

.

(1) Disconnect joint connector (CAN2), and measure the 

resistance at the wiring harness side of joint connector 
(CAN2).

(2) Measure the resistance between joint connector (CAN2) 

terminal 7 and body ground.

OK: 1 kilo ohm or more

(3) Measure the resistance between joint connector (CAN2) 

terminal 20 and body ground.

OK: 1 kilo ohm or more

Q: Do all the resistances measure 1 kilo ohm or more?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Go to Step 10.

STEP 2. Check the wiring harness between joint connector 
(CAN2) C-104 and S-AWC-ECU connector C-46 for a short 
to ground. Measure the resistance at joint connector 
(CAN2) C-104.

CAUTION

Disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer 
to 

P.54C-7

.

.

(1) Disconnect joint connector (CAN2), and measure the 

resistance at the wiring harness side of joint connector 
(CAN2).

(2) Measure the resistance between joint connector (CAN2) 

terminal 5 and body ground.

OK: 1 kilo ohm or more

(3) Measure the resistance between joint connector (CAN2) 

terminal 16 and body ground.

OK: 1 kilo ohm or more

Q: Do all the resistances measure 1 kilo ohm or more?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Go to Step 11.

STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between joint connector 
(CAN2) C-104 and ETACS-ECU connector C-301 for a short 
to ground. Measure the resistance at joint connector 
(CAN2) C-104.

CAUTION

Disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer 
to
