CAUTION

• If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, 

an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be 
set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN 
bus lines.

• Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that 

the CAN bus lines are normal.

.

OPERATION

AWC-ECU operates the electric pump via the electric 
pump relay.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

The code is set when the electric pump relay coil 
side circuit is open or shorted.

.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Electric pump relay malfunction

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

• Malfunction of AWC-ECU

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Scan tool CAN bus diagnostics
Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Repair the CAN bus lines. (Refer to GROUP 54C 

−

STEP 8. Check whether the DTC is reset.
Q: Is DTC No. C161D set?

YES : Replace the AWC-ECU.(Refer to 

P.22A-132

.) Then 

go to Step 9.

NO :  Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to GROUP 00 

− How 

to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction 

P.00-15

.)

STEP 9. Check whether the DTC is reset.
Q: Is DTC No. C161D set?

YES : Return to Step 1.
NO :  This diagnosis is complete.

DTC C161E: Electric Pump Relay Circuit System (Stuck)

.

AWC PUMP RELAY SYSTEM CIRCUIT

Refer to 

P.22A-56

.

CAUTION

• If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, 

an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be 
set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN 
bus lines.

• Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that 

the CAN bus lines are normal.

.

OPERATION

AWC-ECU controls the electric pump by the informa-
tion from AWC pressure sensor and electric pump 
relay.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

The code is set when the electric pump operation 
signal is output from AWC-ECU, and when the AWC 
pressure sensor signal is not reached the specified 
pressure after the specified time has elapsed.

.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Fluid malfunction (low fluid level)

• AWC pressure sensor malfunction

• Electric pump relay malfunction

• Hydraulic unit malfunction

• Electric pump malfunction

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

• Malfunction of AWC-ECU

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Scan tool CAN bus diagnostics
Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Repair the CAN bus lines. (Refer to GROUP 54C 

− 

Troubleshooting 

P.54C-14

.) After repairing the CAN 

bus line, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check whether the DTC is reset.
Q: Is DTC No. C161E set?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  This diagnosis is complete.

STEP 3. Fluid check
Check that the fluid level is adequate. (Refer to GROUP 27 

− 

On-vehicle Service 

P.27-29

.)

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Add the fluid. Then go to Step 14.
