NOTE: Also check junction block connectors D-210, D-211 and
intermediate connector D-28 for loose, corroded, or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If junction
block connector D-210, D-211 or intermediate connector D-28
is damaged, repair or replace the damaged component(s) as
described in GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

Q: Is the wiring harness between combination meter

connector D-04 (terminal 34) and the fusible link (2) in
good condition?
YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the

connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary. Verify that
the high-beam indicator light illuminates normally.

STEP 8. Check combination meter connector D-04 and
ETACS-ECU connector D-224 for loose, corroded or
damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector.
Q: Are combination meter connector D-04 and ETACS-ECU

connector D-224 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 9.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

SWS SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

54Bb-373

INSPECTION PROCEDURE J-9: Headlight and Taillight: Headlight automatic shutdown function does
not work normally.

NOTE: This troubleshooting procedure requires the
use of scan tool MB991502 and SWS monitor kit
MB991862. For details on how to use the SWS mon-
itor, refer to "How to use SWS monitor

P.54Ba-8

CIRCUIT OPERATION
The ETACS-ECU operates the headlight automatic
shutdown function according to the following signals:

• Ignition switch (IG1)

• Driver's door switch

• Taillight switch

• Headlight switch

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the function does not work normally, the input cir-
cuit system from the switches, the ETACS-ECU or
the front-ECU may be defective (refer to "CIRCUIT
OPERATION").

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• The driver's door switch may be defective

• The column switch (lighting and turn-signal

switch) may be defective

• The ETACS-ECU may be defective

• The front-ECU may be defective

• The wiring harness or connectors may have

loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or termi-
nals pushed back in the connector

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991223: Harness Set

• MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)

• MB991862: SWS monitor kit

STEP 1. Verify the configuration function operation.
Q: Has the headlight automatic shutdown function been

enabled by means of the adjustment function?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Enable the headlight automatic shutdown function

been by means of the adjustment function. Refer to

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991502, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991502.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991502 to the data link connector

(16-pin).

(2) Connect SWS monitor kit MB991862 to the data link

connector (13-pin).

(3) Operate scan tool MB991502 according to the procedure

below to display "H/L AUTO-CUT."

1. Select "SYSTEM SELECT."
2. Select "SWS."
3. Select "SWS MONITOR."
4. Select "FUNCTION DIAG."
