HOW TO DIAGNOSE THE CAN BUS LINES

Required Special Tools:

• 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

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

matches the vehicle being 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 being diagnosed.

• If they match, go to step 8.

• If not, go to step 5.

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

the one which the vehicle is fitted with, and then select the 
"OK" button.

CHECK OF FREEZE FRAME DATA

The freeze frame data can be checked by using scan 
tool MB991958 (M.U.T.-III sub assembly).

.

When detecting fault and storing the diagnosis code, 
the ECU connected to CAN bus line obtains the data 
before the determination of the diagnosis code and 
the data when the diagnosis code is determined, and 
then stores the ECU status of that time. By analysing 
each data from scan tool MB991958 (M.U.T.-III sub 
assembly), the troubleshooting can be performed 
more efficiently. The displayed items are as the table 
below.
