HOW TO DIAGNOSE THE CAN BUS LINE

Required Special Tools:

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

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable

• MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A

1. Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
3. Select the "CAN Bus Diagnosis" from the start-up screen.
4. When the vehicle information is displayed, confirm that it 

matches the vehicle whose CAN bus lines will be 
diagnosed.

• If they match, go to step 8.

• If not, go to step 5.

5. Select the "view vehicle information" button.
6. Enter the vehicle information and select the "OK" button.
7. When the vehicle information is displayed, confirm again 

that it matches the vehicle which whose CAN bus lines will 
be diagnosed.

• If they match, go to step 8.

• If not, go to step 5.

8. Press the "OK" button.
9. When the optional equipment screen is displayed, choose 

the one which the vehicle is fitted with, and then select the

CIRCUIT OPERATION

This circuit judges the signals of each switch 
("ON/OFF", "CANCEL", "COAST/SET" and 
"ACC/RES") of the cruise control switch. The ECM 
detects the state of the cruise control switch by sens-
ing the voltages shown below.

• When all switches are released: 4.7 − 5.0 volts

• When the "ON/OFF" switch is pressed: 0 − 0.5 

volt 

• When the "CANCEL" switch is pressed: 1.0 − 1.8 

volts 

• When the "COAST/SET" switch is pressed: 2.3 − 

3.0 volts 

• When the "ACC/RES" switch is pressed: 3.5 − 

4.2 volts 

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Condition

• The "CRUISE" indicator light illuminates.

JUDGMENT CRITERIA

• This DTC is set when the "COAST/SET" switch 

or "ACC/RES" switch is stuck to ON.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST 
LIKELY CAUSES FOR THIS CASE:)

• Damaged harness or connector.

• Malfunction of the cruise control switch.

• Malfunction of the clock spring.

• Malfunction of the ECM.

DIAGNOSIS
